Midsomer Lodges - Reviews

Loved every moment, perfectly relaxing and just what we needed!

Wow, what a fantastic weekend we had! From the moment we arrived, we felt so at home. The lodge is beautifully modern and super luxurious and we loved the festive Christmas touches everywhere - it really added to the cosy vibe. The place is so well stocked; we appreciated the local cheese and bubbly waiting for us, such a nice touch. And a big thumbs up for how welcoming they were to our dog - treats, a tennis ball, dog bowls - he was made to feel just as special. The view from the lodge is simply breathtaking and knowing the entrance is gated made us feel secure throughout our stay. We got regular check-ins from the owners, which made us feel really looked after without being intrusive. The bed was massive and there were plenty of towels, so no complaints there. The only minor thing was the fridge - its pretty small with just a tiny freezer drawer. Were glad we didnt do a big supermarket shop beforeh and, or we mightve struggled for space. Nothing serious, just a heads up for anyone planning a longer stay. Honestly, if I could give it an 11 out of 10, I would! Stunning scenery, a lovely place to relax and the hot tub on the deck was the cherry on top. Were already talking about coming back soon!

We had a lovely stay at Goddard's Mead! Rob, Sharon and Bonnie really made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The buildings been beautifully converted, keeping its historic charm but with all the comforts you could need. The locations perfect for exploring Essex, especially if you enjoy wandering around Thaxted and nearby villages - so much history and stunning architecture. Wed definitely recommend it for a peaceful getaway!

We stayed at this lodge recently and honestly, its fantastic. The place was spotless and beautifully decorated, giving off a really cosy vibe. Its in a stunning, quiet spot with lovely countryside views but still close to shops and amenities. The owners were super helpful too. Hopefully we come back soon!

We had an amazing stay at Tor View! The lodges are beautifully finished and everything feels really well thought out. The hot tub was just what we needed - clean, inviting and super relaxing after a day out. The location is so peaceful, with stunning views that made our getaway truly special. Honestly, its one of the best breaks weve ever booked!

Weve stayed in a few different lodges over the years and honestly, these ones really do tick all the boxes. Definitely a solid 10/10!

We had a lovely stay at Ditcheat Hill View. The lodges design was stunning and the panoramic views really are one of a kind. Rupert made us feel so welcome, nothing seemed like too much trouble. Everything was spotless and well-equipped. Definitely hoping to return soon!

We loved this cabin! Despite the rainy, windy weather, it stayed warm and super comfy. Honestly, the quality is just outstanding. Highly recommend!

We loved the peaceful vibe here, with just five lodges so its super quiet. The views over Glastonbury are stunning and the hot tub is a bonus!

The lodge was spotless and well-maintained, definitely deserving of a 5-star rating!

Valley View really blew us away with its breathtaking scenery. Its much more spacious than we thought and had all the essentials. Spotless when we arrived and honestly, we couldnt find a single thing to complain about.

Really enjoyed our stay! The cottage was charming, loved the log burner and hot tub. Hosts were lovely, very peaceful. Hoping to come back soon!

We really appreciated the thoughtful touches here - from the friendly welcome with bubbles and local cheese to the doggy extras like biscuits, towels and even a shower in the stable! Its clear theyve thought of everything to make guests and pups happy.

We loved the lodges gorgeous view of Glastonbury Tor, its really stunning. The place was spacious, beautifully finished and perfect for exploring the surrounding area. Highly recommend!

We absolutely loved it!

It was super clean and well stocked. The views were stunning.

I loved how our toddler was safe as the outside area was secure with a gate.

The stars at night also are amazing, if you go make sure you sit out with a blanket and star gaze.

Honestly couldn’t fault it.

Beautiful lodge with an amazing view.
The extra touches with the welcome package for both us and our doggie were so thoughtful.
We loved our stay and it is certainly on our 'need to go back' list ?

Excellent location and property, finished to a high standard, views all around wete stunning

Fantastic lodges, clearly a lot of thought, effort and expense has gone into them. The views are wonderful too and located really well for getting to cheddar, Wookey hole, Glastonbury, the coast etc. Everything is very professional but also a friendly touch too.

Beautiful lodge in very peaceful surroundings. Everything you need is provided and the hot tub is great. We have already booked to come back!

Stunning views and spotless lodge and hot tub. Perfect for wildlife and bird spotting too. Cannot recommend highly enough for a peaceful, luxurious break.

A really lovely lodge with stunning wide angle views across to Glastonbury Tor and beyond.

The accommodation was clean and well equipped, and the owners were friendly and clearly took pride in paying attention to the little details.

We found the location a great base for visiting Wells, Bath, Bristol, Cheddar/Wookey, the nearby coast, Stourhead and Longleat.

At the end of our exploring each day, it was so lovely to come back to base and chill in the hot tub and watch the sunset over the farmhouse.

We will certainly return to these lodges when we are back in the area and will be raving about it to friends and family in the meantime, no doubt.

Many thanks to everyone who works hard to maintain the site and lodge so well.

We (four in the party) had a wonderful week In Tor View lodge. The lodge is very well equipped to a high standard and very modern to make a holiday in the lodges very comfortable. The view from the lodge is gorgeous and you can relax in the hot tub and take it all in.
The lodges on the farm at East Compton make them ideal for visiting Bath, Wells and Frome and there are numerous National Trust properties to visit within a few miles.
I would recommend Midsomer Lodges for high standard accommodation and a relaxing holiday.

Despite heavy rain it was mostly only late in the day so didn't spoil the holiday. Lots to see & do within easy reach. Great location.

The lodge is absolutely excellent the amount of detail and thought gone in to making you feel welcome and relaxed was second to none. We took our 2 dogs but I think if we decide to go again we wouldn’t take them, this is because there are no paths from the lodge to anywhere local and the public foot path we tried was dangerous, over grown and looked like it hasn’t been used in years. We ended up using the bridle path which was much better but options were very limited. The facilities for the dogs was brilliant I cannot fault that.

We tried to walk to a nearby pub but was being refurbished oh dear”. All in all a very relaxing lodge with excellent views, and sunsets.

Absolutely stunning lodge with views to die for!! They really have thought of everything. We had a lovely weekend. So peaceful waking up to the sound of baby lambs in the field next to us and birds singing. We have booked to come back in January, definitely one of our favourite places we have stayed. 5 star all the way..?

What an amazing stay! The lodge and surrounding area is absolutely beautiful. The lodge has everything you need and the host even left a little complimentary gift which was a lovely touch! My partner and I were both so sad to leave, we will be back!

Beautiful lodge in a stunning setting, the perfect place for a quiet get away

Lovely lodge beautiful views , nothing was to much trouble

We went for a long weekend to celebrate my friends birthday. The lodge is fantastic. I can’t think of anything that wasn’t just perfect for us. The host was welcoming and helpful. The views are amazing and it was superb to be able to sit in the hot tub and look at the fantastic views. We can’t recommend enough.
