Very nice setting, ever so well maintained, inside & outside. Very informative folder about the lodge and surrounding area, pubs, shopping etc. Fully equipped kitchen, lovely goodie basket including butter, milk & cheese, juice, wine in the fridge! Wonderful walks straight out the door including the beautiful pond. We thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful spot!

Verified Guest
A wonderful spot to take a break, escape the hustle and bustle and relax in a hot tub to your heart’s content! Fantastic facilities and a lovely lodge. They’d even dressed a Christmas tree in the lounge for our December break. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a break to recharge.
Verified Guest
Excellent accomodation and facilities with a terrific welcome basket on arrival. The estate was lovely and it was so nice not have traffic thundering by when we walked the dog. The only negative thing was the very narrow pavement to the local shop and pub - but that's down to Essex highways!
Verified Guest
Amazing accommodation, Amazing setting. Totally chilled for the whole week x
Verified Guest
Beautiful setting. The lodge was very well appointed. It was light and airy, clean and comfortable. Fabulous welcome basket and extras in the fridge. Very nice touch. We were extremely lucky to have excellent weather but I’m not sure it would have made much difference if it hadn’t been so good. The place was relaxing and we enjoyed dog walks in the grounds. My husband did a spot of fishing but unfortunately the fish must have heard he was coming and hid! Highly recommended destination.
Verified Guest
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Campion Lodge. The Lodge is very spacious with everything you need. The welcome hamper was fantastic with bread, milk, eggs, wine, selection of cereals, biscuits and chocolates. The hot tub is very private, tucked away at the corner of the decking and dressing gowns and slippers are provided which was a nice touch. Location was good with walks from the doorstep. I would highly recommend for a relaxing break.
Verified Guest
this place was amazing, peaceful, relaxing and luxurious. fabulous lodge, clean and so spacious, will all you could want for a nice relaxing break. Our 3 dogs were made to feel welcome, unlike other places supposedly dog friendly. The grounds were perfect for long walks then a nice hot tub to finish off the day.
Verified Guest
The lodges are well thought out and beautifully furnished and maintained. The surroundings are lovely, our dog loved his walks around the site. When we arrived we were greeted by a wonderful array of goodies and the lights and heating were on making it very inviting and cozy. The staff we met were very friendly and helpful. Absolutely no complaints.
Verified Guest
When we arrived at the back of the lodge it was very tidy but unassuming. We unlocked and went inside and....oh wow! We were overawed by the size, space and high specification of the place. The attention to detail was spot on, from the folded towels on the bed, the warmth and the music, right down to the over-abundant hamper which had been provided. We have been to a few different lodges and a pint of milk and a bottle of wine is usually standard but there was nothing standard about this unexpected generous stash! (The chocolate cake was to die for!) We had a great time in this well-equipped high spec lodge and will be back! Highly recommended ????
Verified Guest
