From the manager

Built circa 1910, Axen Lodge is tucked away on its own at the end of a private lane, off the beaten track, with magnificent views across Symondsbury Estate and beyond.

The old shooting Lodge is detached with a large garden, veranda and newly built deck where you can sit and take in the magnificent views.

You will feel like you are on top of the world, surrounded by unspoilt countryside, with a mixture of woodland, farmland and a fantastic place to watch the varied wildlife. The Lodge sleeps 6 guests but we have also built a Log Cabin in the garden to make an extra double room and this has been designed to make full use of the fabulous views!

Bringing the total amount of people accommodated up to 8.
