Park View Lodge

About this property

Park View Lodge is a welcoming single-storey lodge nestled in Melbourne, Derbyshire. Ideal for families or friends, this pet-friendly abode, features a bubbling hot tub, an open-plan design, and elevated countryside views. Pull up and park the car, breathe in the fresh countryside air and admire the charm of this inviting wooden lodge before stepping inside. With sheep grazing in the field opposite and tranquil views all around, this is a setting designed for relaxation. Feel the warmth of the underfloor heating as you enter and take in the sparkling white worktops in the well-equipped kitchen, complete with oven and hob, slimline dishwasher, microwave and coffee maker.

Cook up a delicious meal and gather around the circular dining table for leisurely dinners and conversation. Later, sink into the sofa or lounge on the armchair, gaze out through the patio doors at the countryside or flick on the Smart TV mounted on the wall for an evening of entertainment. Two bedrooms provide restful retreats, each with its own TV for those indulgent lie-ins: a king-size and a twin, both thoughtfully presented. The sleek shower room features a rainfall shower, basin and WC, adding a touch of luxury to your morning routine. Start the day by brewing a fresh coffee and carrying it out to the patio to soak up the scenery before planning your next adventure.

Step outside to discover a neat patio complete with furniture and a bubbling hot tub. Take a dip and soothe your muscles beneath the gazebo adorned with lights, creating a lovely ambience at night as you admire the peaceful views. Local attractions are close at hand, with Melbourne Hall and the Staunton Harold Estate offering scenic walks, a reservoir, café and courtyard craft shops. Explore Melbourne’s charming square or venture just beyond to Uttoxeter Racecourse for a thrilling day at the races. Whether you’re relaxing in the hot tub, exploring Derbyshire’s countryside, or enjoying the lodge’s inviting spaces, Park View Lodge promises a memorable escape in a picturesque setting.

Melbourne is a small Georgian market town in a delightful part of South Derbyshire on the edge of The National Forest. It is about 8 miles south of Derby and 2 miles from the River Trent. It contains a good range of shops, pubs and restaurants. The village is also home to The church of St Michael with St Mary which is on the site of a much earlier Anglo Saxon building, and is regarded as one of the finest Norman Parish Churches in the country. It is 8 miles north of Swadlincote. There is much to enjoy in the village, including a lovely relaxing walk through rolling South Derbyshire countryside, starting from Melbourne’s medieval market place. Two of the county’s gems, Melbourne Hall and the Parish Church of St Michael’s, are passed in the early part of your stroll. Make the most of this attractive location all year round.
