We chose Stag Lodge because it is located close to a number of National Trust houses and gardens that we know and wanted to revisit. We booked for 3 nights but unfortunately had to leave after 2 to help our son move house. It also turned out to be an extremely hot few days.The Lodge is very well equipped with every possible item you could want. It was very comfortable and the hot tub was easy to use. Our hosts Sarah and Reuben made sure that every thing was spick and span and were on hand to answer and questions we had. All in all a very enjoyable few days.
