About this property
A superb Lodge with own private heated Indoor Swimming Pool close to Stratford
The Ling Lodges is perfectly designed for larger groups and family’s to come and stay and whilst ostensibly one larger Lodge it can be easily split into two separate Lodges in seconds simply by closing two internal interconnecting doors and so you then have effectively two self contained Lodges. You and your group decide on which layout suits you when you arrive - It’s truly just that easy. The perfect arrangement for larger groups then some might say!
Centrally placed, and within a few miles of all of the major motorway networks, the Ling Lodges are in an ideal part of the Country for meeting up with friends and family whichever part of the UK that they are travelling from. The Ling Lodges, with over 100 entirely independent Five Star traveller Reviews on Trip Advisor. Designed specifically for use by larger families, Hen Parties, and Groups of friends, the Ling Lodges even has interconnecting doors between upstairs and downstairs so can easily become two seperate luxury spaces for a little extra privacy when needed - both spaces complete with superfast wi-fi. Upstairs is recently refurbished and redecorated and totally double glazed with countryside views from all of the rooms. A large Living area that boasts a Dining Table with four chairs and countryside views out over the fields. The Living Room area has two Settees that will comfortably seat four people, and they fold down quickly and effortlessly to form two very comfortable single Beds. There is a television and DVD Player. There is also a varied selection of Games and Books for those quieter moments, and new fast wi-fi too.
A large double Bedroom, complete with a high quality Double Bed with a supremely comfortable mattress is situated off this main Living Room. There are built in Wardrobes, complete with plenty of shelving, and a large chest of drawers. Also ample room for the large good quality Cot that we will happily supply at no extra charge if required.

Downstairs is also a lovely size with two completely separate Double/Twin Bedrooms and another large separate Living area. This also is recently refurbished and redecorated, totally double glazed, and a very comfortable ground floor Lodge with countryside views from all of the rooms.
This Living area boasts a newly fitted, beautifully appointed, kitchen complete with superb Halogen Hob, Inbuilt Fridge, Oven, Grill, Microwave, Extractor Unit and variable chandelier and spotlighting with dimmer switches.

An excellent Marks and Spencer Foodhall is also very close by.
There is a fabulous very large indoor Swimming Pool (42' x 16' approx) situated off the same Courtyard as the entrance to the Lodges. The Pool is available exclusively and privately to you for set hours each day when you rent the Ling Lodges. You do not share the Pool with anyone else. The Pool area also has its own superb fully tiled Changing Rooms and a separate full wet room both with underfloor heating with shower, washbasin and wc also. This entire Pool complex is a massive 2000 square feet and was completely re-decorated and modernised recently..... There is loads of comfortable seating around the Pool where our guests can sit and read a good Book whilst the others in your group swim - most of our guests cannot resist a swim themselves though. The Pool is ideally suited for both adults and children alike and we all know how unpredictable the British weather can be and having an Indoor Swimming Pool is great for both sunny and rainy weather!
Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a kitchen, and a washing machine.

Great Swimming Pool
The swimming pool is very good and our party, particularly the children, had great fun in it. Whilst we enjoyed our weekend, the lodge itself would benefit from a refresh. The upstairs kitchen is out of action so guests are reliant on the downstairs kitchen that has a small built in fridge plus a freezer in the stables across the yard. To cater for larger groups, the lodge would be better served by a large fridge freezer and dishwasher.

Birthday Break
Really great weekend. Jan showed us around and then left us to enjoy ourselves. The lodge was very clean and welcoming. Indoor pool was fantastic as the weather wasn’t the best.
The only downside we had was that the grassed area was very long and not ideal for the 3 children to play with a ball.
Also was not sure where the outdoor was??
But overall great stay.

Complete Rip off!! Avoid at all costs!!!
Total misrepresentation. Filthy bathrooms with mould. No internet (unless to go to the far corner in the top bed room and sit near the window). HUGE legal documents sent after we had paid in full and could not change. No one allowed to visit us despite the fact that we were trying to meet family, having traveled from Australia. DO NOT USE this place.

best pool ever
If your looking for a warm indoor pool this is it. 86 degrees
Living room was a bit small but huge back yard to play baseball
volleyball or badminton. Wifi a bit slow but he was going to have them come out once we left. Easy access and exit to town. Fresh
eggs down the rode too. Small water park near by and fishing too.

Wonderful hosts in a fantastic location
David and Jan are fantastic hosts, friendly and accommodating! They made us feel very welcome and generously gave us extra time when we needed it. The location of the house is very peaceful and quiet, with shops and amenities a mere 10 min drive away. The lodge was comfortable and clean and kitchen fully stocked. We enjoyed the pool which is heated and a fabulous size for large parties. We ended our stay with a treat of 2 boxes of delicious organic eggs and wouldn't hesitate to go back again! Thank you very much David and Jan for making our stay so enjoyable :))

A relaxing and quiet getaway
Ling Lodges was fantastic. We needed a quiet place away from the city to relax for a few days and this location was perfect.
The property, grounds and pool were clean and very well maintained, and David, our host was very friendly and accommodating.
The pool is big enough for light swimming and a very pleasant surprise - clean and well maintained with on site changing and toilet facilities.
The local pub is a very pleasant 30 minute walk through the countryside via marked bridal paths and footpaths, (our host was kind enough to give us directions!} and is well worth a visit, for its food and drink and picturesque setting.
The local town is only a 10 minute drive so access to supermarkets and takeaways is easy too!
We all enjoyed ourselves immensely and would definitely visit again!

My 40th Birthday Stay at the Lodge
10 girls stayed at the lodge. We were greeted at the Lodge by David, he showed us around the lodge and pool. Showed us the how to open and close the gates. He was very accommodating and anything we needed we texted or rang it was done instantly. David had very kindly bought us a magnum of prosecco and even put it in a ice bucket for us. He had also provided milk, cereal and a few other bits. The lodge is perfectly situated surrounded by beutiful countryside and villages. We looked out the windows to sherp and horses. The lodge has two kitchen areas, plenty if bathrooms for 10 adults and 10 comfortable beds. The lodge us very clean. All of us felt comfortable and st home once we got there, it was very chilled and relaxed. The lodge has a outdoor sitting area which also has s bbq you can use. The pool was just perfect, it's actually larger then it looks in the photo. It was so nice relaxing in the pool, the pool has it's own shower room too. We stayed in and cooked a meal and had a few drinks Friday and then went to Greek restauraunt El Greko on the Saturday (amazing food and Greek dancing). We couldn't have wished for a better place to stay, and the owners couldn't do enough for us. It was just an amazing weekend, we will definitely be going back to the lodge soon on a reunion :). Really cant recommend this place to stay for s break away, perfect for 10 adults and would most definitely bring my family here to stay.

You expect a lot more for what you pay
Limited pool hours, not very convenient, poor cleanliness, on the website they mention they offer towels, we needed to go buy some... needs a good makeover. Good size pool tough. Friendly owners.
