clean elegant rooms,friendly host's,right by the stones.What more could we want?Stayed there twice and would not hesitate to go back.Hung out with two other guest's in pub next door and they enjoyed the Lodge as much as us.Tasty breakfast,don't let the one whinger put you off,you will love it!

Andrew is an excellent host - very friendly, knows his village and its stones well. Our family of five stayed two nights, using Avebury as a base for exploring nearby Bath and Stonehenge as well as enjoying our private time with the stones of Avebury in the evenings. We had two rooms, and they were great - perfect views out over the stones, nicely appointed, and not at all like a standard hotel room. It was more like staying as a guest in someone's house - our kids had the larger room with one single and one double and an ensuite bathroom, my wife and I had a double room with the bathroom (just for us) just down the hall a bit. Nice bathrooms, clean, lots of hot water. The breakfast was great - vegetarian all the way, and cooked to order. The breakfast room had lots of cool antiques (my wife broke a small Staffordshire ceramic dog by accident - we had fun in the antique stores of Bath finding a replacement for Andrew - it was actually quite easy, and not expensive thankfully!). We were somewhat intrigued with a painting of a British man wearing a turban - Andrew explained a bit about the eccentric Sir Francis Dashwood, and recommended we visit the "Hellfire Caves" on our way into London. We actually didn't that year, but returned to England the following year and spent some time there. Thanks for the tip Andrew! The Lodge is a great stay - a little more than we would normally pay, but not outrageous, and certainly staying within the Avebury Henge, with a great host like Andrew, in a historic house like the Lodge is worth the price! I'll be back in Avebury again this year, but not staying the night unfortunately - otherwise, I would be staying at the Lodge.

We recently stayed for 3 nights in this very pleasent and interesting accomodation. The Lodge hosts were extremely helpful and thoughtful during our stay, providing very useful information on Avebury and other interesting local sites. Their breakfasts in the morning were excelent and something to look forward to. The accomodation and its historical decor, together with the views across the Henge, will be something to remember when we look back on our visit to Avebury.

We stayed for 2 nights at the Lodge, and having read the variety of comments on Trip Advisor, I had an open mind. This is very much a "Stay in our home" rather than a contrived guest experience. It was an opportunity to stay in a period property, suitably furnished, with views from each room of the stones, and the surrounding countryside. The hosts are genuine people, who are knowledgeable on the area, and as National Trust members we were able to take full advantage of the sites nearby. Breakfast was beautifully cooked. As we have never been fans of the "Fat Boy" breakfast it was good to have good quality ingredients served in a manageable portion size at our request. Fresh fruit salad was served, and cereals were available. Home made preserves are a must for us, and what a variety was available. We were lucky enough to be given 2 jars of excellent home made jam to take away with us.
