Enjoying the best of both location and styling, this gorgeous lodge is set on the edge of Exmoor National Park and has far reaching views of the surrounding countryside and moorland.

Perfectly suited to couples and families, this newly refurbished lodge enjoys a secluded position within the Kentisbury Grange site and sits right next to The Coach House restaurant. There are two spacious en-suite bedrooms as well as a chic, open-plan living space with views of conifer trees through its large picture window. The modern kitchen has a range of high spec integrated appliances and roomy worktops, while outside, the double-size private deck makes the most of its position overlooking a pond, with a table and chairs providing a great space to enjoy an evening drink, and a bubbling hot tub inviting hours of complete relaxation.

Unwind in the super comfy lounge complete with large flatscreen television and music system or enjoy a full English breakfast around the dining table whilst planning the day’s activities.
For those guests who like a bit of a spoil, the wonderful Coach House restaurant serves up delectable dishes and is just yards from the property.

Travel cot and high chair are available on request

Excellent lodge, beautifully presented. Facilities in restaurant were very good. Food was very good. Small bar area inside but great outside space. Dogs allowed in bar and restaurant which was great for us. Both bar and restaurant reasonably priced.
We had dog with us, no walks directly from site, but lots of local walks a short drive away.
We were four adults with two dogs and we would definitely stay here again.

Great accomodation, spotlessly clean, comfortable, warm, very well equipt and spacious. Great privacy and the hot tub was a real bonus. The staff were welcoming,efficient and very polite nothing was too much trouble.
Would have loved to be able to have stayed longer.

It is exactly as seen in the pictures.
As arriving, we were ready to find something wrong, like the cabin being too small or having to share the deck with the next cabin, the cabin being too cold because of all the windows, but no, it was amazing.
Everything was set and ready for us, the cabin was beautifull and warm and even the private jacuzzi was ready to bubble.
We arrived very late but the staff was very helpful and warm. Thank so much to the young lady who welcomed us we were so tired I didn't ask her name.
We will surely come back!

Lodge 6, East Down lodge is a lovely secluded lodge with a jacuzzi overlooking a pond with fountain. You are only overlooked by one other lodge. In our opinion the lodges are in need of some maintenance. The fire didn't work, the blinds are broken and do not pull right across for privacy,, the Jacuzzi was cold but was repaired the next day, there was damage to the internal doors which could be dangerous.
The kitchen could be better equipped with another baking tray (there was only 1), an oven glove was needed and it would help if there was kitchen roll, tin foil and cling film. Could also do with a mop to wipe the floor when coming in from the Jacuzzi as it gets wet and slippery.
Cleaning could be better. There were many dirty hand prints on the main windows that look out to the pond, cobwebs around the lower kitchen window and mould around bottom of shower.
We would recommend this lodge if some of these minor issues were resolved.

Perfect getaway.
Hidden away you will have peace and quiet and everything you need to enjoy the country side.
On site bar and restaurant, hot tub and great facilities in your accommodation.
Will definitely be back.
