Kings Lodge

Set on the edge of the beautiful River Yar estuary in Freshwater in the farm yard of a privately owned 17th century manor house sits Kings Lodge.

Kings Lodge is a beautiful stone farm building, renovated to the highest standards, with plenty of living space. Flagstone and wooden floors throughout complement the building and its furnishings. The house has four elegantly furnished double/twin bedrooms, two of which are en-suite with a further bathroom upstairs and ground floor cloakroom. The superb kitchen has recently been refitted with all modern utilities. The house is centrally heated, but for our winter guests, there is also a beautiful open fire. The spacious lounge has TV / DVD and music system. French doors lead from the entrance hall on to a private courtyard with outdoor furniture and barbecue, a perfect place to admire the view with a glass of wine in hand!

With views directly over the pretty walled lily pond garden to the unspoilt reaches of this tidal estuary, Kings Lodge offers privacy, a location unequalled on the south coast and outstanding accommodation. Set at the end of a half mile private drive, Kings Lodge is immediately adjacent to the naturally wild salt water estuary which is considered to be one of England’s most important wild life habitats. Designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and a Site of Special Scientific Interest, the house sits at the centre of this extraordinary environmental habitat, a haven for nature lovers and walkers. With kingfishers, red squirrels, barn owls and all varieties of duck and wading birds in permanent residence, you will find yourself with a different visitor every day.

Kings Manor Estate is home to the owners as well, everything is personally managed and the family are always on hand for some local advice or help.
