Vendors Comments - The renovation and development of South Lodge has been a labour of love for over 11 years. We love living here and having made the decision to move overseas will be sad to say goodbye. We love the stunning countryside views from almost every window which allows us to enjoy the nature and wildlife that surrounds the house. As the seasons change, so do the glorious uninterrupted views. It is a fabulous home in which to entertain and we have celebrated many life events here from 1st birthday parties to wedding celebrations for more than 100 guests. We love the fusion of traditional Victorian features of the original lodge and the light filled extension which offers contemporary open plan indoor/outdoor living. We love the reaction of first time visitors who are all blown away by our home and the fact that South Lodge is a landmark property that locals know and love. We enjoy the close proximity to the cultural experience that is Stratford upon Avon, the fabulous pizzas at our local riverside country pub - The Four Alls and nipping out for breakfast to Bonds Lifestyle.
