Raleigh Lodge is an inviting and unique cottage located in a picturesque corner of Exmoor, Somerset. Tucked away in the woods, this holiday home offers stunning views of river valleys, fields, woodlands, and the sea. Guests can explore the beautiful countryside through nearby footpaths leading to Dunkery Beacon, Porlock Weir, and Avil Valley. The Lodge, once the stables to a Victorian Manor, has been restored to retain its original character and offers comfortable accommodation for up to 6 guests.
The three restful bedrooms, including a Stable Bedroom with period features, provide a cozy and quirky atmosphere for guests to feel at home. For those seeking true peace and tranquillity, there is an option to book a Shepherds Hut alongside the Lodge for an additional fee, accommodating up to 8 guests in total. The property is situated on a 35-acre organic farm where rare breed sheep and cattle are raised, and seasonal produce is grown. Guests can enjoy seasonal produce from the farm, courtesy of a local chef available for hire during their stay.
Nearby Wheddon Cross village offers amenities such as a shop, garage-cum-Post Office, and a family-friendly pub. Dulverton, a short drive away, features independent shops, tea rooms, and award-winning pubs and restaurants. For seaside days, Minehead and Dunster with its medieval castle are within a similar distance. Raleigh Lodge provides a peaceful retreat for guests to unwind, make memories, and enjoy the beauty of Exmoor. It is an ideal destination for those seeking a tranquil escape in a unique and scenic setting.
