A Heritage That Spans Five Centuries

Nestled in the rolling countryside of West Sussex, Lodge Farm has stood as a quiet witness to centuries of English history. Originally built as the Duke of Norfolk's hunting lodge in the 1500s, the estate has been lovingly preserved while evolving into an exceptional countryside retreat.

Today, Lodge Farm is being carefully developed into an exclusive glamping destination — marrying the character and charm of its Tudor heritage with contemporary luxury. Set beside a tranquil duck pond and surrounded by ancient woodland, wildflower meadows, and open farmland, it is a place where time moves at nature's pace.

Our vision is simple: to share this extraordinary setting with guests who seek genuine connection with the English countryside — a place to breathe, to wander, and to rest.

An Enclosed Swimming Pool

An unexpected luxury in the heart of the countryside — our enclosed pool sits within the grounds, offering year-round swimming with views across the estate and surrounding fields. The perfect way to unwind after a day of exploring.

Luxury Lodges, Thoughtfully Designed

Two beautifully crafted timber-clad lodges, each with their own private outlook — one overlooking the duck pond, the other with panoramic views across open meadows. Built with natural materials and designed to sit harmoniously within the landscape.

"Absolutely magical place. The setting is so peaceful — you can hear nothing but birdsong and the occasional duck. Waking up to that countryside view was something else entirely. We didn't want to leave."

Sarah & James London · October 2025

"A real hidden gem in West Sussex. The cottage is charming and has everything you need, but it's the grounds and surroundings that make this place special. We saw deer on the lawn at dusk. Truly unforgettable."

Michael Brighton · August 2025

"The perfect escape from city life. We spent our days walking through the woods, picking vegetables from the garden, and just sitting by the pond doing absolutely nothing. Heaven."
