We felt welcome and comfortable. We appreciated being able to make a cup of tea before heading out for supplies. The information book was informative and well used. We would stay there again if we are in the area.

Short stay at Hinton Lodge
We stayed at Hinton Lodge whilst visiting family and it made the perfect base. Everything was comfortable, clean and as described. Due to a last minute family emergency Clea was incredibly accommodating to some late minute changes, which was very much appreciated. Would definitely recommend a stay if visiting the area.

A Tranquil Retreat in a Charming Locale
Our stay at this VRBO property was nothing short of delightful. Nestled in a serene country setting, the property offered a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The house itself was immaculate and comfortable, making us feel right at home from the moment we stepped in. The location was a perfect blend of tranquility and convenience. We were just a short distance away from a charming village, which added a quaint and cozy touch to our stay. The village offered a variety of local shops and eateries that we thoroughly enjoyed exploring. One of the highlights of our stay was the exceptional support from our host. They were attentive, responsive, and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. Their hospitality truly enhanced our overall experience. In summary, this VRBO property exceeded our expectations in every way. It offered cleanliness, comfort, a beautiful location, and a supportive host. We highly recommend it to anyone seeking a peaceful getaway in a charming country setting.

About the host

Hosted by Clea Gompels

Host profile image
Hello, I'm Clea, your host at Hinton Lodge. We bought our property in 2000 and have hosted people from all over the world in our small little quaint cottage in Wiltshire for over 20 years. Hinton Lodge used to be the gate house to our own house, so we changed the entrance to ours to give complete privacy to the guests staying at Hinton Lodge with parking in front. It has been such a joy to meet so many people coming from different parts of the country and the world over the years. People tend to come back time and again at Hinton Lodge as it is so cosy and quiet, particularly if you come from a big city. All you can hear is the noise of the birds when you wake up. We love to travel ourselves and wanted to create a home from home where you have all you need for a peaceful stay in the beautiful English countryside. We hope you'll enjoy your time at Hinton Lodge if you choose to come and stay with us.

Why they chose this property

We bought Hinton Lodge more than 20 years ago here in Wiltshire because we love the English countryside and because Wiltshire is a beautiful county with so many delightful places to visit within easy reach. There are the villages of Lacock with its old Abbey, Castle Coombe, Devizes with its many canal locks, stunning cities such as Bath with its Roman Baths, famous Circle, the Jane Austen museum and countless delicious restaurants, Salisbury with its cathedral, the less well known but truly wonderful sacred site of the Avebury Stone Circle, as well as the better known and world heritage site of Stonehenge and so much more. Hinton Lodge is within minutes of gorgeous walks on Salisbury Plain if you have a dog or just love walking. Longleat Park and House are also nearby with so much to do for the whole family . We could go on and on and on about all the places you can get to from Hinton Lodge. You will certainly have plenty to do during your stay.

What makes this property unique

Hinton Lodge is a little gem of a place. It is small, but that's what makes it so special. It was designed to be very compact, yet practical for 4 guests. Although Hinton Lodge dates of the early 1900s, it has been lovingly restored and kept up to date, respecting the old charm whilst bringing it into the 21st century with all modern amenities. We hope you will fall in love with it as we have. You can relax on the porch and sip a nice glass of wine in the summer, or enjoy the open fire in the winter with a nice cup of tea. Whatever you do, whether you choose to be out and about all day making the most of what Wiltshire has to offer, or stay cosily in the cottage to relax and recharge, you will have a restorative time there. Hinton Lodge is perfect for families who love the fact that you can run around the house with the Jack and Jill bathroom, or come for a romantic stay with the beautiful 4 poster bed in the master bedroom, or even bring your furry friends as we now welcome well behaved dogs at Hinton Lodge.
