Very stylish B&B although you won't like it if you want carpets and traditional furnishings. We had a stunning room with huge sliding windows opening onto a shared courtyard/terrace where we ate our breakfast in the morning sun. Breakfast was the only slight disappointment as my poached egg was anything but runny. Perhaps this was because the renowned Julia was... More

Julia has done a fantastic job with South Lodge. I stayed here for one night, midweek on business and found the room to be outstanding. The attention to detail and design in the place is well beyond a 5 star rating. I was welcomed but also given enough privacy and I have to say that the attention to detail in... More

Very contemporary design to the bedrooms and lounge that visitors can use. The level of comfort and 'extras' in the rooms is equal to a 5 star hotel. If the weather is good there is access to a garden area with seating which provide a relaxing place to catch up on reading or emails. Breakfast is freshly cooked, you do... More

Thank you very much for taking the trouble to write a review. I am sorry to find you experienced only four star service and cleanliness - perhaps you would be kind enough to email me separately with details of our shortfall, as it obviously helps us spot problems and make sure they don't reoccur! Thanks again, Julia Cox More

Stayed here last month with my family for brothers birthday. It is impossible not to give 5 stars to the South Lodge and Julia. 1. The Rooms: all very modern and spectacularly finished, no expense spared in the details. Little touches like the incredible homemade macademia shortbreads in tins, which, were to good to share. I told my partner there... More

We stayed here for our anniversary and would recommend it to anyone looking for somewhere peaceful to stay in fabulous rooms with friendly and helpful people. Oh and great food too. The rooms are contemporary and are within what seems to be a modern extension done in barn conversion kind of style (terrible description for fantastic rooms). The decoration is... More

I stayed for one night in Room 3, which is probably the best room I've stayed in anywhere. Good quality coffee, teas and soft drinks - a homemade cake on arrival! Everything is top-notch, the bed, the bed linen, the interior design. The breakfast was excellent, good quality ingredients, served by Julia, who is a great hostess. The gardens look... More

Colin and Julia work exceptionally hard to make all guests feel welcome and absolutely nothing is taken for granted in making this accomodation one of the best hidden secrets in Britain. We have been three times and would have no hesitation in staying again and would recommend to anybody who wants to have a peaceful weekend away, safe in the... More

My sister arranged a hen party to remember at South lodge! It was the perfect venue for a really social afternoon and evening. Everything about the place was perfect and Julia and Colin made every effort to make every single one of us feel welcome.

Wow what a place. Stunning interior design, comfortable clean rooms with space to relax and all mod cons. Impeccable service and attention to detail. I highly recommend South Lodge and cannot wait for the next visit! Oh and the food - plentiful and very tasty.
