Eve Lodge
“We booked Eve Lodge for our honeymoon not realsing how beautiful it was. It’s been the perfect week to get away from everything and relax”
Eve Lodge is one of a pair of delightful Grade 2 listed sandstone gatehouse lodges. These original gatehouse lodges with stunning views of the beautiful lake are named after two of the oldest oak trees in Herefordshire, one of which is still visible from the lodges.
Eve lodge sleeps two upstairs, although can be made to sleep four using the fold down bed in the downstairs living area. An en-suite is situated upstairs with a shower room downstairs. In each lodge the downstairs is open-plan and therefore the double fold-away bed is not private.
Eve lodge is a spectacular property for couples seeking a private break away, with it being nestled at the bottom of our estate.
The lodge is fitted to a high standard and has its own private garden complete with sauna, hot tub a fire pit and BBQ.
Eve Lodge is pet friendly with a maximum of 2 dogs per property.
This property comes with a free pass to our bookable private pool. All links to book space will be sent prior to your stay. One booking slot per day!
(The Ev charger on the side of this property is currently not connected. We have an EV charger located close to the pool complex for guests to use onsite. Please download MONTA Charge and search for us)
