Freshen up in a shower room before grabbing a table for two at the Black Horse Inn, serving regional cask ales and classic pub grub favourites.
Sun too good to resist?
Sizzle up some supper on the barbecue and dine alfresco, accompanied by picturesque countryside views.
When evening approaches, settle into the comfortable sofa with a film on the Smart TV before falling into a luscious king-size bed waiting to catch you.

What guests are saying
Duck Lodge is the perfect place to relax and unwind.
It is in a peaceful, quiet setting at the bottom of a lovely long, pub garden that is lit up at night. The owners are fantastic and on hand if needed. The pub itself is a quaint friendly local that serves excellent food that is varied and delicious. The village is very pretty and tranquil, yet so close to road networks to get out and about, which we did every day. It was always a pleasure to return to the lodge and the alpacas and wild rabbits and birdlife. Very idyllic !
Fabulous stay a lovely breakaway in a peaceful location.
I have impaired mobility but a short walk through pub beer garden which is beautifully maintained, passed the fruit trees and your at the lodge. Wave a carrot to the alpacas and they're straight over for breakfast and even give a little shout of approval. Lodge was immaculate, bread, milk, jam, biscuits, coffee, bottled water on arrival which I thought was a lovely gesture.(only thing missing was the vodka
Duck Lodge was an amazing place to stay and the hosts were friendly and helpful.
The lodge is bigger than we expected and very tastefully decorated with lots of attention to detail, it was also incredibly clean. Being self catering we were pleasantly surprised to find hand wash, washing up liquid, a scourer, tea, coffee, a pint of milk, wafers and a lovely loaf of bread with butter and jam. The lodge is set in a really peaceful and beautiful spot and we got to see the cute alpacas as well as other wildlife. The lodge would be great if you wanted to relax or alternatively to explore the gorgoeus surrounding villages and countryside.
