Guests consistently praise the secure private garden, relaxing hot tub, and proximity to the welcoming Boyne Arms pub with excellent food. The property is well-equipped for short breaks, with thoughtful touches from the hosts. While most found the lodge clean and comfortable, a few noted minor maintenance issues and the compact size of the bed. Overall, it offers a delightful countryside escape with great walks and a warm, friendly atmosphere.
Most guests found the lodge spotlessly clean on arrival, with only a few isolated comments about missed cleaning in some areas such as kitchen utilities and pet hair on the sofa.

Guests generally found the lodge cosy and comfortable, though several mentioned the bed being small or uncomfortable, especially for taller guests. The sofa and outdoor furniture were also occasionally noted as needing improvement.
The hot tub, secure garden, and well-equipped kitchen are popular features. Some guests mentioned minor issues such as a small fridge, lack of oven, or unclear instructions for appliances, but overall facilities met expectations for a short stay.
Many guests appreciated thoughtful touches such as welcome drinks, chocolates, and dog treats, as well as the hosts’ friendly and helpful communication. Please note that such gifts are not guaranteed for every stay.

Cosy little lodge with a great sized garden and hot tub.Situated in a very peaceful location. It was close enough to walk to the local pub, which offer a great range of drinks and some amazing food! The pub is dog friendly too! It was a perfect stay for us two and our puppy. We stayed for four nights and didn't get bored. Ludlow and Bridgnorth are approx 20 mins drive away. A little tip, bring plenty of towels for the hot tub if visiting in the autumn or winter as there's nowhere to dry your towels. Luckily, we were prepared.

Amazing little lodge with private got tub. The Lady that owns the lodge (also runs the local pub the Boyne Arms) is amazing. They even managed to fit us in for dinner after they had officially stopped serving. The food at the pub is absolutely spot on, and the pudding is to die for.

We had a fabulous time here . It was the perfect country retreat for us with our beautiful young black lab. The enclosed garden was amazing. The hot tub a real bonus . You have everything you need in the School Lodge and it was really warm and cosy. There was a ******** hedgehog that visited every evening to eat the pears that had fallen . Plenty of places to walk and visit. It was such a special time . We have come back refreshed. Oh and the Sunday lunch at the Boyne Arms is a must . Thank you for giving us the break we needed .
