HISTORY OF
COUGHTON LODGE
The lodge is approximately 500 years old and was part of The Coughton Court Estate (now owned by The National Trust). Coughton Court was deeply involved in The Gunpowder Plot: rumours and legend have it that Guy Fawkes lived close by for a while. Since a great deal of "plotting" must have taken place with the other conspirators, the rumours are particularly credible.
Originally the front part of the Lodge would have been The Coughton Court Estate Office and to the rear were adjoining stables and barns. There was also a sawpit, but this became disused and was eventually demolished.
Over the years the Lodge has been put to many uses. In the 1960's, for example, it served as the village infant school whilst a new school was being built. Fortunately whatever use the Lodge was put to, the original characteristics and beams were carefully preserved.
I bought the Lodge in 2004 to convert to a guesthouse, and my partner Caroline and myself set about totally renovating and refurbishing the building. In less than three months we had installed twelve en-suite bathrooms, one for each room, redecorated, furnished and opened our doors for business. We were exhausted and penniless, but the result was worth it.
The Lodge retained all it's original character but was furnished with modern complimentary furniture and fabrics to give it a light and airy feel for guests, and to provide a relaxing and intimate atmosphere for that special break.
We were delighted when we were awarded a four star rating on opening.
Now three years on we have gone from strength to strength, with guest numbers increasing every year, and many "regulars" who visit time and time again.
We look forward to welcoming you to the Lodge, and hope that you can have such a lovely time that you too will become one of our regulars.
ACTIVITIES AT
COUGHTON LODGE
There is plenty of scope for outdoor pursuits.
Caroline and I go rambling on many local pathways.
Also fishing (usually me), horse riding, cycling and boating on the River Avon.
There are also many golf courses, racecourses, shopping centres (usually Caroline) and at weekends several boot sales.
Don't be shy to give us a ring for any more info, however, between two and three I like to have a kip!
