Old Downton Lodge ****


Situated only 6 miles away from the town of Ludlow, this enchanting hotel is set in its own private grounds and boasts uninterrupted views across the Shropshire and Herefordshire Hills.

Ideally located within easy reach of Shropshire, Herefordshire, and Worcestershire, Old Downton Lodge provides the perfect location for a relaxing break in the heart of the countryside. There is also plenty to do in nearby Ludlow, a lively market town with a great spirit. You will find a wealth of independent shops, a traditional market and fascinating architecture, including a castle, church and many beautiful Medieval and Georgian buildings.

A small family-owned and run hotel, the Lodge only has 9 rooms, each of which is individually styled and includes all that you need to ensure your stay is relaxing and enjoyable.

The Lodge Restaurant offers an intimate feel and features comfortable leather and oak high-back chairs.

Set in the Medieval hay drying room, with high ceilings, oak beams, and the unique triangular windows, any meal in here is guaranteed to feel special.

All the dishes are cooked to order. Many of the ingredients are seasonal, and sourced from the hotel`s grounds, such as new potatoes, broad beans, garlic, Downton Pippin Apples, berries, and of course, all the herbs, when in season.
