The location is perfect; in this week we visited Bodiam Castle, Scotney Castle, Leeds Castle, Sissinghurst Castle & Gardens, Chartwell, Emmetts Gardens, Rye, Bayham Old Abbey, Bateman's, Alfriston and Knole. We would defenitely recommend this beautiful place! ##### Bianca N. ### 8/10 Good #### Carol D. 21 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy We spent 3 nights at the lodge. The lodge was just the right amount of space for our family of 4\. The kitchen was stocked with everything you need to prepare your meals. The lodge was clean and well maintained.There were a few downsides one was the water pressure. When using the sink in the kitchen the water in the shower would go cold and I unfortunately was not able to use the lovely tub as the water did not heat up after two attempts. Also the lighting around the lodge needs to be checked as on dark evenings it was difficult to see when returning from our days out. ##### Carol D.

From the first moment we arrived at Nimrod Lodge we felt our spirits lift as we looked out onto the fields on our doorstep. Coming from hectic London the tranquil location of Nimrod Lodge really helped us unwind. Superb place to stay, lovely decor, really well equipped and with so much to do in the area we ran out of time to see everything. The owners were helpful with our queries and the welcome hamper is such a nice touch. Thank you, we will be back! ##### graham w. ### 8/10 Good #### Graham E. 6 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nimrod Lodge We were very happy with our experience and the owner, Laura, was very helpful and coped well with a major problem relating to a loss of power supply which was rectified very quickly ##### Graham E.

Kitchen well equipped and was lovely to have the welcome pack with cake, tea and crisps. Beds were comfy and so were the sofas. Had Netflix for the evenings which was good. I have marked it down slightly as there was building material spoiling the view a little bit which was a shame however it rained most of the time so we didn’t get to enjoy the outside space but this is England!
