We had a great stay at Yartleton Farm Lodge. Anni provided us with lots of information on the area and places to eat when we booked and met us on arrival. The lodge is amazing with fantastic views, comfy beds, a powerful shower and everything we needed for our stay. There was a lovely welcome pack with juice, tea, coffee and sweets too. The area is stunning and we enjoyed a walk up May hill, just behind the lodge, to watch the sunset. We highly recommend a stay at the lodge and will definitely be back.
