Upper Lodge at Kentchurch

The house is so well equipped and the on site team were so helpful. But the setting, hidden in a secret valley at the end of the drive, and with the estate’s own pub a brisk walk away, is magical.

A very peaceful location, just us and the resident goshawk. The kitchen equipment was all of a very high standard. We enjoyed the gardens and grounds.

Lovely cottage with good quality furnishings. In a beautiful spot so very peaceful. Lovely large garden perfect for the dogs. The perfect stay!

We had an incredible 5-day stay at Upper Lodge, Kentchurch. The location is simply idyllic, set within the beautiful Kentchurch estate, and we loved wandering around the gardens. The lodge itself is stunning, spacious with generous living areas and beautiful en-suite bathrooms, all beautifully designed and decorated to perfectly fit its surroundings. Every detail was thoughtfully catered for, with 5 star, luxurious fixtures and fittings throughout. The outside space is fantastic, with plenty of seating to relax and take in the views. The bedrooms were exceptional, we slept like we were in hibernation behind the gorgeous curtains and on the super comfortable beds. The housekeeper, was incredibly helpful and made sure everything we needed was taken care of. In the evenings, we enjoyed the short walk down to the local Bridge pub, which added to the charm of the stay. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful countryside escape in a truly special setting.

An absolute gem of a find! We will definitely be coming back. This amazing centuries old stone lodge, tastefully renovated to a high standard with an expansive walled in garden and outdoor seating around the firepit. Absolute heaven. Very short distances to Grosmont Castle and The Angel Inn, The Bridge Pub (walkable if you're in fair shape) and The Old Stables award winning Fish and Chips at Ewyas Harold (and the Temple Bar Inn and The Dog Pub). Luxury ensuite bedrooms. And a very sweet, responsive host.

We stayed at Upper Lodge for the weekend and even before arriving Helen, our wonderful host, was so helpful in ensuring we had a comfortable stay. The Lodge and furnishings were immaculate and lots of extras provided including a lovely welcome hamper which we really appreciated. We loved the extras like the dart board, boules and croquet sets which provided much entertainment. We took our dogs and they had a wonderful time and enjoyed the enclosed garden. A very special thank you to Helen who went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable weekend. I highly recommend Upper Lodge.

A much needed holiday for us and two friends, plus pooches. So peaceful and relaxing and within easy reach of some great places to visit. Fully secure garden for the dogs and some lovely walks nearby. Helen was just a text away and lovely - friendly and helpful with a great sense of humour too.

Upper Lodge at Kentchurch is a beautiful, relaxing, well appointed and excellently decorated/ furnished home. We loved the cosy hall where the dogs slept and where you could sit to put your boots on. The bedrooms were all lovely and well sized, with terrific bathrooms. The garden was private and well enclosed - with one of the walls being a lovely sun trap, even in December! And the setting is glorious, with a stream running alongside and access to a majestic deer park. Everything was perfect. We will be back!

Everything about our stay at Upper Lodge was exceptional. The accommodation is wonderful with all requirements for our stay catered for. The quality of the property is the best we have stayed in. Booking was easy, directions were given and Helen the housekeeper answered all questions instantly via email. I will be booking next year without hesitation.

We absolutely loved our stay at Upper Lodge. The house was extremely spacious, but also very cosy and homely. We loved the stylish décor and found everything to be in perfect condition. The location was very beautiful and peaceful, and the house felt very private. We would definitely love to return in the future.
