I’d highly recommend Cart Lodge and we’ll definitely be staying again" - "Let me just say that Carmel and Jason are amazing hosts, extremely accomodating, friendly and genuinely nice people. The barn was great with comfortable bed, fully equipped kitchen, soft towels, all the comforts of home. Pair that with the peace and quiet of the English countryside it's a stay that can't be beat.

- "Comfortable property, set in beautiful fields, a little off the beaten track but ten minutes drive from town. Owners very responsive to questions and helpful, to the extent of coming out to help with small issues with WiFi. There were some wasps flying around but it was dealt with immediately by the owners and they called out a company that day that solved the problem. We had a lovely stay." - "Lovely barn, very clean, great facilities"

Location is everything and you have everything right on your doorstep being on the high street in this busy little town, which is quiet during the week and comes alive at the weekend. There is a bar / club across the road, and at the weekend closes around 1am. So if you are a light sleeper, or do not like outside noise this may not be suitable for you. We do warn all of our guests that being on the high-street and in the middle of a busy town, this isn't a quiet little retreat if that is what you are looking for.

**Please note that unfortunately we no longer accept pets at our property
