The Shepherd's LODGE

Ash Woods Retreat is a charming, private and secluded bespoke Shepherds Lodge set in its very own 5 acre old English woodland.

Our Shepherd's lodge

A spacious living area of well-equipped luxury awaits!

Leave the door ajar and relax on the giant bed, listen to the birds song and the gentle sound of the stream running by.

You can watch the squirrels jumping in the trees or if you’re really quiet “shhh!” you may be lucky and see the deer pass through or the woodpecker in the trees.   Dark skies and bright stars guide the the owls at night.

Unique Location

This is no ordinary location.  Our lodge is located in beautiful woodland in the middle of a working dairy farm.  The lodge is accessed by walking down a lovely woodland track which traverses a small valley.  From our car park it should take you no more than five minutes to reach the lodge.
