South Lodge West Reviews

Paul
Only down side was no access to garden directly from cottage
Anne
Fabulous retreat, so quiet , privileged access to the estate was a bonus! I was there alone but not lonely!
Susan
Enjoyed our stay at South Lodge West and would happily stay again.
Ian
The cottage is delightful, unfortunately doesn't get afternoon/evening sun. The South entrance is the entrance coaches and estate traffic use.
Judith
A wonderful week and a terrific location. Quite busy in the mornings being next to the gates and late afternoons. However, we had visits by deer and numerous birds, fabulous walks and super food at the Holkham Courtyard. Basic needs are provided for in the cottage, lovely shower, comfy bed, kitchen equipment. The secluded and enclosed garden was perfect for our dog during the evenings while we sat outside and enjoyed a glass of wine in the tranquil surroundings.
Jennifer
Very cute little place with everything we needed. Lovely welcome gifts as well and the surrounding area was gorgeous. We were blessed with gorgeous weather and just wondering around the estate and the town was breathtaking. Would highly recommend and my husband had a fantastic time away there for his birthday. Also the instructions to find it and access it were wonderfully clear and easy to follow. Thank you for letting us stay in this wonderful cottage.

Lovely property. Quiet, comfortable and private. A bit too far personally from Wells, but excellent.

A lovely property in a beautiful location surrounded by fantastic wildlife. Very clean and comfortable. The welcome bag and dog treats were much appreciated! Great walks throughout the park and to the idyllic Holkham beach. Look forward to returning.

Very clean, lovely and warm accommodation. The bed was very comfy. Loved the ornate windows, and the historic element of the Gatehouse. The wildlife was amazing; deer, hare, bats, toads, Red Kites and birds of prey.
