About this cottage rental
As you pull up to the main gates of Ragley Estate, there is a real sense of arrival. A symmetrical pair of pale stone gatehouses stand guard on either side of the entrance, the one on the left is Arrow Lodge.
This unique bolthole offers comfortable accommodation for two guests with a stylish bedroom overlooking the garden, a living room which occupies the original part of the gatehouse, plus a kitchen and a little sunroom, which offers a sunny nook for meals.
The enclosed rear garden is a real suntrap and is surrounded by high hedges. Two traditional Adirondack chairs offer a spot to relax and soak up the sunshine, those who like to stargaze will be hard-pushed to find a better place than from the warm waters of the wood-fired hot tub.
When staying at Arrow Lodge, you can enjoy the many events held throughout the year at Ragley Hall, including Classic Ibiza, Fireworks Champions, and DogFest. Perhaps you’re staying for your own celebratory event, with Ragley Hall known as a popular Warwickshire wedding venue. Take a look at the Ragley Hall website for information on the nearby activities.
Ground Floor
The entrance door is to the side of the gatehouse, the original door whilst still in situ, is no longer in use.
Bedroom:
This light and airy room is simply but elegantly furnished creating a restful place to lay your head. A super-comfy king-size bed is made with crisp white linens, and a grey woollen throw and is flanked by two bedside tables, topped with reading lamps. A wooden chest of drawers and wall hooks with hangers provides storage, there's also an elegant dressing table with a mirror hidden within.
Kitchen:
The compact and well-equipped kitchen is at the rear of the gatehouse and filled with everything you need including a full oven, fridge-freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. A door leads to a little sunroom with a dining table and two chairs, creating a useful space for meals. There are also doors from here into the garden.
Bathroom:
The shower room features a large shower cubicle with an electric shower and a hand basin. There's a mirror and a shaver point above the handbasin. The window to the side lets in plenty of natural daylight but can be completely shielded by the louvre blinds. Please note the toilet is separate from the bathroom.
Living Room:
The living room is in the original part of the gatehouse with windows to the front and rear. This room is cosy and bijou with the original entrance door hidden behind thick curtains and a fireplace (not currently in use). Sink into the sumptuous velvet sofa after a busy day at one of the Ragley events or exploring the local countryside and find a good film to lose yourself in on the Smart TV.
Outside
Arrow Lodge benefits from its own private enclosed garden and a wood-fired hot tub. There is also a parking space by the lodge for one car.

Pretty clean, were a few cobwebs around. Was quite cold even with the heating turned right up and it’s not clear upon booking that it’s just feet away from a main A road so quite a bit of road noise when in the bedroom and sitting room. Bed is excellent, large and comfortable. Garden is big but due to some damaged fencing wasn’t totally enclosed and we had our dog so that wasn’t ideal. Hot tub would’ve been nice but it’s wood fired so would’ve taken 2-3 hours to heat up and wasn’t heated before arrival and I didn’t want to spend all afternoon tending to a fire outside. They only put 3/4 logs inside for the fireplace in the sitting room even though there was plenty in the shed outside so I’m not sure why they didn’t put more inside to last us our entire trip so instead I had to go outside to get more when it was raining. They did leave us a bottle of fizz and cake for arrival which was a nice thought. We walked our dog along the road which leads up to the main house, he was on a lead and didn’t go in any fields which were behind fences. The land owners wife came along told us we weren’t allowed to walk along there so we had to go back. We were made to feel not welcome and nowhere on the information for booking nor in the welcome back does it say we can’t walk along that road. Seems odd you’d open the lodge on site for dog friendly stays but not even allow people to walk along a road which starts right next to the lodge. Overall was okay and clean and cosy but I wouldn’t recommend it for people as there’s plenty of other places more suitable for a dog and with less things you have to do yourself to have a nice stay after paying for it.

The lodge was great - combining an historic place to stay with great comfort - including a real fire in the sitting room and a new well-equipped kitchen. Bed super comfy too. Wood burning hot tub was a plus - remember to light it a few hours before you want to use it! Would thoroughly recommend

We found the lodge perfect for our short break, it had everything we needed to ensure a great stay.
6 / 10Average·Jul 2023
We booked this stay due to the proximity for some work I had to do, also for some time for my husband to do some remote work while having a night away with our dog
The garden is not enclosed as described so we had to keep the dog on a lead which was something that would have made me chose somewhere else.
Also, I knew it was on a main road and the gate house to Ragley Hall, so we expected a degree of noise. However, there was an event being set up at Ragley Hall which we didn't know about. the noise levels were extremely high with constant traffic passing and large lorries turning directly outside. the curtains had to be closed the whole time.
The majority of windows cannot be opened and it was extremely warm inside, a fan would be a good idea
Also, workmen arrived to measure something up in the garden, this wasn't mentioned and it wold have been good to know as we lost a degree of privacy.
