  • If there is a visible sign from the road as you suggest why do your deliveries and guests pull into the wrong drive? We have had 3 in the past week alone.

    You would really have to ask them I am afraid maybe its because of the numbers they run in a strange way lots of people get lost on this road as you probably know.

Host Info

Host Review Score 9.2

The Lodge is a magical place to stay. It is completely unoverlooked and very tranquil, an Ideal place to relax and unwind yet only 15 mins from Colchester town centre. With of horses grazing in the paddock beyond the garden fence and many birds visit the feeder each morning this is your view while enjoying your morning coffee. The Lodge is not super smart but very homely,completely self sufficient with gas central heating and a logburning stove a home away from home. Little Barn is suitable for 3 people. It also has Log Burner and Central heating a small kitchen and dining area. There is a small secure garden backing on to a yard where horses live. The Little barn makes a convenient base if travelling to Colchester or Ipswich or the AONB of the Dedham Vale .There is plenty of room to park

We are animal lovers and there are plenty on site including horses, dogs, geese and cats. I love to meet new people and hear about their lives and look forward to welcoming you to stay.

Ardleigh is a great place to stay. Dedham vale is on our doorstep.An area of outstanding natural beauty , here you will find coffee shops a beautiful church, lovely riverside walks and the munnings museum. Manningtree 5 mins by car is a riverside town with all the facilities you may need. Only 15 mins to Colchester town centre the oldest recorded town in Britain, and all the history that goes with it complemented by great shops, restaurants, cinemas and parks. Here in Ardleigh we are only 30 mins to the coast ie Frinton on sea, Clacton and Walton and The port of Harwich 20 mins away.
