“Our happy place!”

Our third stay and fourth is already booked for next November. Owner is lovely and so helpful. We required assistance when we were there and within 5 minutes we’d had a visit and issue resolved! We always stay for a full week and have everything we need. Already looking forward to our next visit ☺️

“We had a great week at Hillside Lodge, the living accommodation was excellent and so to the outdoor dining area.”

The view from the Lodge, looking over Ludlow is spectacular with the sun setting over the opposite hills There are plenty of walks right on the door step, that our younger dog enjoyed, and the enclosed garden gave great freedom for both of our dogs. Big thank you to the owner Marie, we will be returning.

“Absolutely stunning lodge, we have stayed in many dog friendly cottages / lodges and this is without doubt the best one.”

Already looking to book for next year.

“Well, for our first family little get away.”

It was amazing! Marie had made sure everything was ok for us, any problems she was there (not that we had any). Everywhere was so clean and well presented. The hot tub was a big hit for us and the kids. Our dog loved just lieing on the grass taking in the air. We also got to watch the barn swallows which were amazing, flying in and out their nest! What a fantastic lodge it was! Thank you! X

“A wonderful place to unwind and relax.”

The view was amazing! The beds were extremely comfortable and the hot tub was lovely. The weather was glorious. We just didn’t want to leave - thank you so much.

“A beautiful lodge with all the comforts and wonderful view.”

Sykes sent us the directions to the wrong lodge, but we soon found ours.

“We absolutely loved staying here could' never get bored off view we had 2 dogs who loved outdoor space they were secure and safe beds so comfy would highly recommend beautiful part off the world.”

Janet May 2024

“Beautiful, peaceful location, although just a short drive to Ludlow, and the lodge itself was clean and well decorated.”

Having the hot tub refreshed for every visit is very reassuring. The owners obviously take pride in their property and are very welcoming. I have already recommended it to several friends.

“If you're after remote, this is remote!”

Sainsbury's 10 mins drive. The facilities are excellent, the lodge is gorgeous, the hot tub was incredibly clean and we spent a lot of time in there during our stay. Loved the undercover leisure area, used the barbecue griddle, the freezer and wine fridge in this area. Lovely to be able to dine looking out over the superb view. If you have a very small dog (smaller than our Mini Schnauzers) the garden might not be totally secure if your dog is determined; we bought a screw in stake/tether so our two could roam on long lines without us worrying. We did check the boundaries but were not 100% comfortable to let them roam at their will.

- Andrew, May 2024
Jennifer May 2024

“The lodge was beautiful inside and out.”

The views down the valley were breathtaking and it is located in a beautiful mountain setting. The hot tub was great and the BBQ area was a great asset and we had a lovely evening relaxing, eating and drinking. Will definitely be booking for a repeat visit and Maria was really lovely and kind. The beds were also amazing and we truly had a fabulous stay. Thank you.

- Jennifer, May 2024
Lisa May 2024

“We had a fantastic bank holiday stay at Hilltop Lodge.”

The lodge is beautifully presented and well equipped- Marie, the owner, couldn’t do enough for us when we asked about where we could source wood for the outdoor wood burner. The dogs had an amazing time with plenty of freedom to explore, and the covered hot tub meant it was very well used! We loved it so much we are booking to return next year.

- Lisa, May 2024
Paul April 2024

“We spent a fantastic week at Hillside Lodge.”

The views from the property are really lovely, especially from the master bedroom or from the hot tub which we enjoyed everyday. Inside is fitted out to a high standard. It is only 10-15 mins drive from Ludlow which is a beautiful place to visit. Croft castle is also worth visiting as well as Stokesay castle. Would recommend the Riverside inn at Aymestrey, the Lion inn at Leintwardine and the Blue Boar at ludlow for great pubs to eat out at. Good communication with Marie on the day and when we left. Would return again in the future when visiting this area.

“I can honestly say that I could not fault Hillside lodge.”

The property,the views, the host and everything about this place was perfect. We enjoyed a lovely welcome cake n u⁸and a visit from Marie the host, to make sure we had all that we needed. Our two lively Springers had a ball,with stunning views from our afternoon walks up the hill. A total relax,topped off by the beautiful hottub,which was perfectly tended to. Thankyou so much Marie,we will certainly be back and have already recommended to our friends.

Victoria March 2024

“Hillside lodge was an amazing little find!”

Cosy/comfortable and had everything we needed. Just to go for the hot tub alone and the view would make it worth it! Beautiful location, will definitely be back!

Lorraine March 2024

“The lodge was lovely, a lot of time had been taken into the decor very welcoming, view were amazing, everything we needed for our holiday was there .”

Looking forward to booking again.

Peter March 2024

“We spent 4 nights here and loved every minute, the views from the property are beautiful especially if the sun is out and you see it setting over Ludlow and the hills.”

The hot tub was in constant use and was always well monitored by the owners for water quality. There are no shops in walking distance so bring all your food and drink with you unless you want to have a car trip out. We knew this and loved the remoteness and quietness, it felt very private as if it was only us there (and the sheep!).

- Peter, March 2024
Sara March 2024

“A fantastic place to stay.”

All exactly as described. Photos can’t do justice to how beautiful it really is. Felt very welcomed by Marie and Neil. felt that if we needed anything then they were approachable

“2nd year we have been for a birthday weekend, brill.”

Hot tub was brill sitting in it with a glass of bubbly looking over the valley,very quiet great weekend,thanks to our hosts.

Angela March 2024

“The location of this lodge is great.”

Excellent walks minutes from the door over the moors, the feeling of isolation but still accessible (via car) to local places. We had a lovely stay here and saw all weathers (it snowed! Which actually made it lovely). The hot tub is done well with the outside space and I imagine in summer is lovely. There are a couple of things that slightly detracted, and in the aim of providing a well rounded reviews, I’ve noted these below as some are easy fixes. It was an enjoyable stay overall. - the pillows on both beds were really hard and uncomfortable. I actually bought a pillow after the first night from a local supermarket to use. The beds however and sheets were comfortable. - there is no front door mat which for a dog friendly place wasn’t ideal in bad weather. We used one of our own towels, but this is a really easy fix. - the fridge door shelf is broken, and bottles wouldn’t fit except lying down, meaning we continually had leaking bottles and a mess to clean. I noted this on other reviews a while back, so to see it not fixed for a higher end cost properly was a bit disappointing. - I was texted on the day of arrival to ask if just one bed could be made up (the double not king with the views). Whether there is 2 of us staying or 4, I’d expect the option to decide when I’m there where I want to sleep without the presumption of this being in the bed with my guest. To avoid washing linen unnecessarily perhaps a sign could be left on the bed to say ‘don’t move me if you don’t use me’. To add, I asked for both to be made and they were so there was no issue, but I’d expect the full house to be ‘ready’ as standard. We did enjoy our stay here. There is no walking distance pub or place to eat but we were aware of this and willing to drive for days out, so this wasn’t an issue at all.

Daniel February 2024

“Back from a lovely stay at Hillside Lodge.”

The lodge itself has everything you need and was very clean, tidy and modern. What made this extra special was the amazing view and the outside covered area with the hot tub. We enjoyed outdoor cooking on the hot plate and although the weather in February wasn’t warm, the log burner kept us cosy. Definitely recommend staying here!

- Daniel, February 2024
Hayley December 2023

“Just got back from an amazing week at this beautiful lodge.”

Lorraine September 2023

“We have really enjoyed our week staying in this lovely lodge.”

It is very modern inside and tastefully decorated. The views are stunning too. Outdoor facility is good and the hot tub, which we enjoyed every day, was excellent. The lodge is very remote with several narrow lanes to negotiate. Really peaceful once you’re there though.

- Lorraine, September 2023
Tracy September 2023

“This is the first time we have stayed at this beautiful holiday home but we hope it won’t be the last.”

It’s absolutely beautiful, very high end feel and fixtures. The outside space is suburb and it’s where we spent a lot of time. With walks straight from the gate we rarely used our car. Marie is also what makes this place that bit more special in our opinion, she was so lovely and nothing was too much trouble

- Tracy, September 2023
Michael September 2023

“This was the best stay we’ve ever had of this type.”

Total privacy with Marie and Neil on hand for anything we needed - totally unintrusive. The lodge is brilliantly designed and the owners have clearly gone to a lot of effort to create a stunning retreat. Great outdoor kitchen and hot plate BBQ with drinks fridges and freezer. Excellent indoor kitchen perfect for cooking anything. The beds are comfy, well presented and spotless. The scenery is incredible and the location perfect. Can’t recommend this place highly enough. We will DEFINITELY be going back having tried lots of other places which don’t deliver compared to this.

- Michael, September 2023
Gail June 2023

“Great stay, lodge as described and very comfortable.”

The only little niggles are the shower head….you need to hold it up as it drops and faces the wall….minor but annoying when trying to wash and no large door pocket/shelf in fridge for things like larger cartons of milk or bottles of coke etc. Road might put some folks off as very narrow in bits but we were fine with it as we are used to these types of roads. Remote and no pubs/shops in immediate vicinity, definitely need a car. Nice little touch of milk and cake on arrival in lodge. Great for a peaceful break.

- Gail, June 2023

Katrina April 2023

“I only wish that I was waking up there again today.”

A beautiful place to stay, lacks for nothing, comfortably and tastefully decorated and stunning views. It is up a very steep hill, but Ludlow and the Ludlow Farm Shop and an Sainsburys, are only a short drive away. Great for our two dogs and there is a nice circular walk around the back of the property to a little fork in the road down the hill. Would definitely recommend if you want peace and quiet and a relaxing time. Bonus is the hot tub and watching the sunset from it.

- Katrina, April 2023
Gavin March 2023

“Well what can I say what a fantastic place,the views down the valley , sitting in the hot tub, stunning walk up clee hill.”

Lodge was very cosy and clean. Would recommend this place. P.s the owners pulled all stops as it had been snowing and they cleared the lane leading up to the lodge and pathways around the lodge. Thankyou.

- Gavin, March 2023
Beverley February 2023

“Peace and quiet guaranteed!”

The lodge is in a lovely setting with an amazing view, and we didn’t see anyone for the whole time we were there (apart from our visit to Ludow). The lodge had everything we needed and although it was cold outside (February), the heating kept us warm and cosy. The beds and sofas were comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped & spotless. The outside space is great but it was a shame we didn’t get to use it much because of the cold weather. The hot tub, was clean, very relaxing and great for star gazing under the clear dark skies . Just a couple of nit picks… the garden is fairly secure and enclosed but keep an eye out if you have a small dog, our little 'Eddie' found a space to escape behind the back of the lodge within 5 minutes of arriving! No extra towels or robes were provided for the hot tub so make sure to bring your own. Would love to visit again in spring or autumn when it’s a bit warmer for alfresco dining or to enjoy the log burner in the outside cabin.

- Beverley, February 2023
Sandie February 2023

“WOW! What great views and a lovely Lodge to stay in.”

It was warm, clean and welcoming. The dogs enjoyed all the sniffs around and slept well every night, as did we! We will definitely go back when the weather gets warmer but a great place to switch off from the wheels of life.

- Sandie, February 2023
Gary February 2023

“Fantastic place to stop for a relaxing quiet stay .”

It has everything you need . I would definitely recommend to everyone. Will be coming back .

Nathan December 2022

“Absolutely beautiful area, lodge had everything we needed for our stay.”

Very modern and well equipped. We went whilst it was snowing and they kindly gritted the roads. Towns local to get to, perfect for walks. Not a nit pick but shower head could use some attention as it droops down. Other than that, would highly recommend and hope to visit again soon.

- Nathan, December 2022
Jackie November 2022

“Had a great stay at this beautiful cabin, amazing views, beautiful place to get away from it all.”

Owner was great, I didn’t meet her but had great contact on the phone, nothing too much trouble. Nice touches, milk in fridge, lovely cake, coffee The cabin itself very clean, everything you need , would definitely return The only minor niggle (wasn’t an issue)we found the hot tub lid quite heavy to lift off ,if there’s 2 of you it’s ok.Harder if you’re on your own. Love the log burner, would be lovely to have one indoors Overall definitely a place I would return to, and will most definitely recommend to friends and family

Was such a lovely peaceful place with amazing views didn't want to leave the owner messaged us on day of arrival to say if we need anything to contact her but other than that we were left alone which is what we like a perfect place to relax

“We had a wonderful stay.”

Our hosts were on hand if we needed them. The lodge itself was beautifully furnished and comfortable, fab hot tub and amazing views. We had a peaceful holiday with our dog, walking in Mortimer & Wyre Forests and Wolverley Lock. A perfect time!

- Debbie, September 2022
Daniel August 2022

“Cannot fault anything about our stay here, beautiful lodge, spacious and airy.”

The view just makes a lovely stay even better as it’s amazing, you could sit and look at it all day we will most definitely be back. If we could give more than 5 stars we would, thank you.

Sandra July 2022

“Wonderful place to stay, the views are beautiful the garden perfect if you have dogs, hot tub fab to relax in spotlessly clean, a couple of hooks to hang a robe or towel on would be useful as you get out.”

But If your after a quiet break in a beautiful area this is perfect, but as nothing is close take all supplies with you, if you do want to venture out great walks and picturesque Ludlow a few minutes away Ludlow brewery worth a visit. Carnt wait to go back, oh and Marie was brill and helpful a lovely chocolate cake on arrival Thank you Marie for a very enjoyable break you have a wonderful place

Rick June 2022

“Fantastic property in a wonderful location and tastefully decorated.”

The view down the valley is incredible whilst the outside space is first rate and that is without mentioning the hot tub, we had such a relaxing week at Hillside Lodge. The flat plate griddle in the outside cabin is great and I used it every day whilst the adjacent beer fridge was a welcome addition. Be warned though, this place is isolated and pubs, shops etc are several miles away but if you want a `get away from it all break` this is definitely the place to go. There were a couple of issues though...the location probably means you'll be cooking at the property most of the time (great for me as I love cooking!) but 1x bread knife and 1x paring knife is not enough to prepare a meal there really should be a decent knife block. Also, 4x 6" dimpled chopping boards are not much use to anyone, a decent big steak hangs over the edges so a good sized chopping board would be useful. Oh and I don't understand why we couldn't use the TV normally but better information on how to use the TV, microwave, dish washer etc would be very helpful all round. These are only minor issues though, it's a wonderful property and I would say it is one of the best value for money properties on Sykes` books. Highly recommended.

- Rick, June 2022
Karen April 2022

“Beautiful lodge, immaculately presented.”

Very comfy & clean. Be warned! It is VERY quiet at this lodge !

Sandra April 2022

“Wonderful log Cabin on Clee hill with fantastic views very well laid out.”

Very clean and comfortable. Loved outdoor space with hot tub woodburner and cooking facilities. The owner Marie was very helpful especially when we couldn’t get the tv to work. The only thing that was missing would be some more knifes/utensils but we made do. Lots of local walks and Ludlow is foodie heaven with good shops local independent Cheese shop & Butchers,Bread. Plus the big supermarkets. Car park is very cheap (30p hr) and encourages visitors to the town no charge after six and Sundays but can get very busy at peak times lots of castles and NT properties to visit near by

- Sandra, April 2022
Deirdre March 2022

“Wonderful property in a beautiful setting.”

The only disappointment was the TV we could not get live programmes or subtitles which is essential for my sister as she is deaf. The kitchen would have benefitted from a few more glasses for wine and fizz. There was also no wine bottle opener and there were a lack of kitchen utensils However we managed and had a great time and would definitely want to come back.

- Deirdre, March 2022
Sally February 2022

“Gorgeous lodge in a stunning location!”

The owners were lovely and extremely helpful. The lodge was really nice with lovely decor. The front bedroom had the amazing view but the bed was too soft for us, however we realise this is personal preference. What sets this property apart is the outside space and the incredible view! Yes it’s remote but this is clear in the details and that’s the appeal for us. We loved being able to walk our dogs straight from our lodge up Clee Hill. Our dogs loved the garden but just a note to say it isn’t fully enclosed, it has small gaps where little dogs can get through into the field below. It wasn’t a problem for us but worth noting if your dogs are more adventurous. We also stayed at their other lodge Stoneybrook which is across the other side of the lane and very similar, both properties are lovely and we will definitely return.

- Sally, February 2022
Lisa February 2022

“The cottage was fantastic with wonderful views.”

Amazing location we had a lovely walk upto the summit. The owners are helpful with anything we needed. We had a great time and will definitely be coming back.

Lyn December 2021

“Had an amazing stay at Hillside Lodge.”

Owner was really friendly and couldn’t do enough for you. Lodge was spotless and had a real luxurious feel throughout. The view from bed through the bifold doors was really special as the views over the hill were spectacular. The outside facilities were amazing, especially the hot-tub, sitting area and grill plate. I cant wait to go back!

- Lyn, December 2021
Rachel December 2021

“Had a fantastic Christmas break away for 2021.”

The logde is beautiful the views are fantastic when there’s no fog. The inside is beautifully decorated, the beds are so soft like being swallowed by a marshmallow. The garden is dog friendly no escaping from our little beagle. The best bit of it all is the hot tub and outdoor entertainment area where we spent most of our time. The bbq (gas grill) is awesome we had a few bbqs and cooked breakfast on it. I would recommend getting some logs if you want a good fire and a bit of heat from the log burner. Over all we would 100% be returning.

- Rachel, December 2021
Christopher September 2021

“The views from the Lodge were superb and we had some fantastic sunsets over the hills opposite.”

Marie was a very helpful and attentive host without being obtrusive and as only a phone call away if you needed anything. Previous reports stated that the cottage wasn't particularly dog friendly as the dogs could get into the next field, while this was true, this field was small and had stock fencing round it and our 2 Jack Russells didn't escape from it.

- Christopher, September 2021
Sara September 2021

“Absolutely fabulous place!”

If you're looking for nightlife, this isn't the place for you but if you're after an idyllic relaxing location with amazing views, you've got it! Beautifully decorated and furnished, this is a true home from home. A previous review had mentioned the lack of freezer but this was addressed during our stay so is now available.

- Sara, September 2021
Donna September 2021

“Absolutely beautiful lodge with everything you need for a peaceful week away, with stunning views.”

The listing says it has a BBQ but it is not a BBQ it's a fabulous plancha gas grill which we used everyday. Wonderful owners who are on hand at the top of the lane if you need them. Spent time walking nearby - some steep hills !!!! Ludlow Farm Shop is close by for local produce, as is the town itself but when you have such a lovely accommodation why would you need to go elsewhere. Blissful holiday watching beautiful birds in the garden, lovely walks and fabulous weather.

- Donna, September 2021
Sandra June 2021

“Lovely stay , very rural which is one of the reasons we chose this place .”

Only drawback was the listing stated fridge freezer , but it is actually a fridge with an ice box . Luckily I managed to get all my frozen items in it . Fab place , and Marie the owner was very helpful and not intrusive . Would highly recommend this lodge if you want to get away from it all

- Sandra, June 2021
Paul April 2021

“First off, this is the best self catering property we have ever rented.”

....we have rented in towns and countryside, this eclipsed everything. The location is outstanding, the property is well presented, there is nothing from a charity shop here (unlike some we have previously rented) it is roomy, nice furnishings and decor, well equipped, good size garden, off road parking. You control the heating, no restrictions. This property is located high up on Titterstone Clee Hill, a couple of minutes walk and you are at a gate which leads directly onto Clee Hill Common which has many foot paths including the Shropshire way, its steep, but the climb is worth it, at the trig point there are 360 degree views of the neighbouring countryside, stunning! There are ruins of Dhustone mining to explore too. Be aware if you have a dog, its lead walks only as the common is full of sheep. The joy of Hillside Lodge is that you look out onto a huge part of the view from the front windows, the garden and the hot tub. Yon watch the weather changing across the valley below, its mesmerising. The hot tub is in a separate open fronted building overlooking the view, totally private, in the building there is also a dining table and chairs, along with seats to relax in with a log burner and a gas powered griddle to cook on should you so wish. We rented in the first week in May 2021 and enjoyed warm sun, snow, hail, sleet, rain, gale force winds, from the tub! Two of our favourite places are close Ludlow and Bewdley, both worth a visit. Only very minor gripes, one of our dogs got out of the garden somehow and ended up in a sheep field, luckily no damage done and a couple more towels would have been nice, one for the shower, one for the tub. Oh, and on the morning we left, we decided to clean the place pack and clean then have a final dip in the tub, did everything and found the tub emptying to be refilled for the next guests...gutted! Oh well.... We will I’m very sure return, its the only place we have been that we were reluctant to leave. Really, really impressed!

- Paul, April 2021
Karin October 2020

“The Lodge is so much more than I expected.”

It was clean well equiped and warm. You do need a car to get from a to b. Ludlow is about 10 mins away by car and has lots of good shops and markets, which are on most of the days. There is a shop closer to the lodge in a small place called Clee Hill. Again its a small car drive away and has a good range of products. The hot tub was bliss and well worth taking a dip. Marie who owns the lodge was great and nothing was to much trouble. I had a fantastic break and a well earned rest. I shall be returning again in the summer months.

- Karin, October 2020
Natalie September 2020

“This is a beautiful location and lodge and we can’t wait to go back!”

A hook or 2 would be useful around the hot tub for towels and a little more kitchen equipment would be great but it wouldn’t stop us recommending the place to anyone. We had a wonderful week and saw a part of the country we were unfamiliar with

- Natalie, September 2020
Valerie September 2020

“We loved Hillside Lodge.”

The views down across the valley towards Ludlow were amazing. The lodge was very private and we particularly enjoyed the peace and tranquility, and the fact that we could go walking straight from the doorstep. We hope to return.

A great place to walk from, ie Clee Hill and beyond, and Ludlow is only 15-20 minutes away for provisions etc.

The property

Ludlow 6 miles.

This wooden-clad lodge is set in a secluded location on the edge of the Shropshire Hills in the village of Bedlam, close to the historic town of Ludlow.

Enjoying panoramic views over the Shropshire Hills and towards Worcester, Hillside Lodge is a well-equipped accommodation for families wanting to break away from everyday routines and relax within this idyllic part of the country.

Impressive on the inside and out, internally the lodge has been tastefully renovated with laminate flooring and a number of comfortable furnishings, whilst outside there is a superb outdoor area where you can curl up beside the woodburning stove or enjoy a dip in the hot tub all while admiring those breath-taking views.

The open plan living area is where everyone can gather to prepare a hearty feast from the well-equipped kitchen before enjoying a family film upon the sofa.

Heading to bed you have two beautifully furnished bedrooms to choose from, one of which benefits from patio doors leading to the garden and offering those same views, which would be a real treat to wake up to!

Why not make use of the undercover kitchen area with BBQ and serve a delicious selection of grilled goods?

If you can bear to tear yourself away from this delightful dwelling then a trip to Ludlow is recommended, home to a magnificent 13th century castle, plus a great selection of shops, pubs, restaurants, tea rooms and its famous festivals throughout the year.

Travel further afield to the impressive locations of Hereford and Shrewsbury, places with great history and interest to make your trip just that extra special.

An exceptional holiday lodge to spend with your loved ones.
