About this property

Idyllically positioned on the grounds of Shorefield Country Park, on the outskirts of Downton, in Hampshire, rests this contemporary single-storey holiday home, Amethyst Lodge.

Pull up your sleeves and get to work on rustling up a hearty meal in the kitchen for your loved ones to enjoy at the dining table, or make the most of your peaceful surroundings by making mealtimes an alfresco affair on the veranda. Settle down at the end of another day of adventure with a sumptuous spot in front of the Smart TV, where the sound of your favourite show provides an idyllic backdrop, or escape the excitement and prepare for bed with a blissful soak in the bathtub.

    However having stayed at shorefield previously we felt a bit disappointed about the location. The listing for the lodge makes it appear to be near to the fishing pond but in actual fact is isolated from the main facilities. We had to get in the car to be able to get to the pond, swimming pool etc. as we have 2 small children and didn’t like the idea of walking along the busy road especially in the dark.

    The walk to Shorefields was a bit treacherous in the dark but not an issue really

  • Christine

    Cleanliness was okay but could be improved. Front door sticking as it has dropped on hinges. It was good that you could use the site facilities next door. We have stayed in better lodges for less.
