Saxon Maybank Lodges

We love it when traditional charm blends effortlessly with contemporary style and comfort - and these fabulous lodges, set on a former working farm and with views over stunning countryside, do just that. The surrounding area is full of picturesque villages with shops, pubs and restaurants - and the amazing Jurassic coastline is easily accessible with some wonderful beaches at Burton Bradstock and Lyme Regis.

Saxon Maybank Lodges are tucked away amidst lush farmland that offers some really beautiful walks, far away from the stresses of everyday life. You could relax and enjoy the views from your own private hot tub or play a round on the park's golf course. Nearby, both Yeovil and Bath have some exceptional restaurants - Mulberry's Bistro and Ring O'Bells are good to visit and only a mile or two from your luxurious lodge.

The lodges are superbly designed, styled and furnished. Our favourite is Loxton Barn, a beautiful converted barn with original, exposed stonework, wooden beams and soft lighting. Double glazed patio doors lead to a private decking area with south facing views of the Dorset countryside and of course, you'll have your own hot tub as well as a king sized double bedroom with ensuite shower.

Dorchester and Wells are both within easy driving distance, or you could head to Longleat Safari Park at Warminster to see some of the world's most magnificent animals. Cheddar Caves and Gorge is a fascinating world of mirror pools and colourful calcitite formations and there are some great sporting activities to get involved in too. Try your hand at horse riding in Gillingham, clay pigeon shooting at Buckland Newton or paintballing at Street.
