Little Lodge by Group Retreats

Experience the allure of tranquility and charm at Tidswell Hall Estate, a historic private hire country estate, lavishly nestled amidst the scenic rolling hills of Devon, bordering the stunning Exmoor National Park, and just a stone`s throw away from the beautiful Somerset. A mere two hours by train from the hustle of London, this haven of bliss and resplendence is a treasure waiting to be discovered.

The Little Lodge, a charming accommodation tucked away from the main driveway, stands as a testament to the estate`s historical legacy. Originally a shelter for the estate workers at Tidswell Hall Estate, this quaint dwelling was completely remodeled in the 20th century and underwent a grand refurbishment in 2019, adding a brand new chapter of providing exquisite lodging services.

Guests can enjoy the privilege of complete privacy in the mouth-watering expanse of five acres of breathtaking gardens and have unrestricted access to the quintessential manor house. Take a serene stroll down the driveway to the village church, just 800 yards away. Immerse yourself in the splendor of nature, relish in the company of your loved ones, and experience the ultimate country escape.
