Lodge House is a comfortable B&B set in the beautiful Blackdown Hills in Somerset, which is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Vegetarian and light options, using local produce where possible, free range eggs from our own hens, homemade bread and home made preserves. Our 2 rooms are south-facing, comfortable guest bedrooms with antique furniture and modern touches, perfect for peace and quiet.
The house dates back to the 1750's and retains fine original features. We are approx 750 feet above sea level here, and the air is clean and pure. A footpath runs past our front door and the only traffic is the occasional walker or horse rider. The views from here are amazing, the peace and tranquility are second to none, making Lodge House B&B an ideal place for a stress-relieving break, away from the hustle and bustle of busy everyday life.

Everything is new apart from the antique furniture and pictures. Either side of the bed are modern reading lights with daylight bulbs and Wi-Fi is also available. The pillows and duvet are fibre fill, but we also have feather pillows for those who prefer them. We have a travel cot for babies, which can be put up in the bedroom.
We have a 5 star rating for Food Safety and Hygiene, awarded by South Somerset District Council. Breakfast is served between 8.00am and 9.30pm in our south facing dining room, overlooking the front garden, (other times by request). We source our food using fresh local ingredients, organic where possible, and with the principle of low food miles very much in mind.
Your host Kathy Arnold is also a qualified complementary therapist, who has a treatment room on the 2nd floor of Lodge House.
