About this lodge

The details.
About your Lodge.

The Nellie Lodge is our newest retreat — a design-led lodge with two private king-size bedrooms, a generous open-plan living area, and outdoor space designed to be lived in rather than just looked at.

Inside you'll find warm materials, soft furnishings, ambient lighting, and a fully equipped kitchen stocked with everything you'd expect at home — and a few things you wouldn't.

Step outside to your own private retreat, complete with a hot tub, wood-clad sauna, fire pit, and covered outdoor bar.

Sleeps up to four guests across two king-size bedrooms. Photography and online booking will follow ahead of the first guest stays.

  • Coming soon

    The Nellie Lodge is being prepared for its first guests. Photography is on the way and online booking will open shortly.

  • Entirely private

    Set within its own enclosed plot, The Nellie offers the same sense of privacy as our other lodges — screened outdoor spaces, dedicated parking, and discreet access via private electric gates.

  • Spa-at-home

    Whether it's a crisp winter evening or a summer sunset, your private wood-clad sauna and outdoor hot tub are heated year-round and prepared before your arrival.

  • Drawn for groups of four

    Two king-size bedrooms, expansive open-plan living, a pool table, and a covered outdoor bar — designed for shared experiences, whether that's a family escape, a couples' getaway, or a weekend on the golf course.
