Set in gorgeous grounds with badminton facilities and outdoor space to kick a football around, this spot is perfect for active families. The large veranda with BBQ lets you enjoy the outdoors whatever the weather throws at you. Watch the sunset with a glass of wine while the kids exhaust themselves in the garden. And when they're finally asleep, you can slip into the hydrotherapy hot tub. Nothing beats bubbling away under the stars with no one to hear you giggle.

The accommodation includes three king-size bedrooms (two with en-suites) and one twin room that can be converted to a king. The open-plan living area has a fully equipped kitchen with range cooker, dining space for eight and a cosy sitting area with an electric woodburning-effect stove.

Hampton Lodge Reviews

Hampton Lodge is private, quiet, comfortable and spacious. The owners are lovely people, friendly and helpful. My family and I enjoyed the peace and the hot tub the most. Thank you for a wonderful break.

We had the most amazing stay at this beautiful lodge! It's so thoughtfully designed spacious and has everything you need for a perfect escape away. The hot tub was a real highlight large, relaxing and overlooking a peaceful field with sheep which made it feel so tranquil and special. Barbara the owner was absolutely lovely and couldn't have been more helpful we'll definitely be coming back highly recommend!

Perfect late summer holiday with friends. Loved everything about this lodge ......well isolated and no light intrusion ,so perfect for star gazing particularly from the hot tub !All rooms comfortable and cosy.The lodge is very well equipped....has everything you would need. Ellsmere is a charming little town where we were made welcome. Sunday lunch at The Boat is a must and also The Sun Pub worth a visit. I would be very happy to return .

Severine

We had a very nice week in the Lodge. It was perfect, well equipped, plenty of towels and places to hang them to dry and the jacuzzi was the best I ever been too. Absolutely perfect!

Hannah

An enjoyable stay for 7 adults and one baby for a week in August 2025. The grounds are extensive and provided lovely strolls with a cup of tea in the morning. The privacy was lovely, using the hot tub and sports areas without worrying about noise. The cabin facilities were fine for a week and Barbara came out and fixed a door for us with no problem. We really enjoyed ourselves and will be staying again. Recommended days out to Chester and Chester Zoo. Pete's bakery in Ellesmere is lovely too, especially the sausage rolls.

Me and my friends came as three couples to this amazing lodge, we stayed for three nights and didnt know what to expect, the property was amazing and so quiet and you were left alone in peace. The woman who introduced herself to us was called Barbera and she was lovely which made the stay even better and she gave us a lot of tips and recommendations on what to do for our stay. We done some activities and just enjoyed the area and the lodge. We went to The Mere which was beautiful. Overall we got to spend quality time together in a lovely lodge which is out the way and very comfortable, spacious and affordable. We all loved our time away and would definitely recommend it to anyone! Im sure we will be back again as everything went so well and smoothly.

Natalie

A wonderful stay in a luxury lodge and very tastefully decorated for our Christmas break!

Very comfortable, quiet, wellequipped chalet. Responsive, friendly hosts Highly recommended.

Sabrina

Our family of 6 had a wonderful stay at Hampton lodge it really was beautiful. An amazing way to start our summer holidays. The lodge is very spacious and has everything you would need for a week away from home. The children loved picking out there rooms and playing outside, watching the sun set from the decking and taking a dip in the hot tub after long days out. The owners really have thought about everything and you can tell just how much work an love they have put into this lodge. The cake was also very tasty so thank you for that.

Homely place to stay with accommodating and friendly owners.

Catherine

Hampton Lodge is sitiuated as seen on the publcity in the middle of nowhere seemingly, until floodlighting appears at the foot of selected trees at nightfall! Creatively positioned, and designed internally also, The Lodge supplies everything to ensure a most enchanting and yet practical stay for a week. Versatile, adaptable and deliciously welcoming every day. Gloriously relaxing experience.

Malcolm

Beautiful lodge and setting. Warm welcome from owner, cake was lovely. Only a tiny thing but the lighting was a little dim, especially over the dining table at night. Would absolutely recommend it for a family stay.

Catherine

We had an amazing holiday at Hampton Lodge. We came with our four adult children and two of their partners, so although we wanted to spend time together, we still needed the lodge to be big enough so we didn't feel on top of one another, and Hampton Lodge provided this. The lodge genuinely felt big enough for eight adults, with enough sofa space and space at the dining table for everyone. We couldn't fault the lodge, it was just perfect in every way and we had a lovely stay. It was exactly as advertised on Sykes, and the little extras like board games, badminton set, and table tennis ensured we always had plenty to do. The hot tub being under the veranda was great as it meant we could continue to enjoy it even when the weather was not great. We also couldn't have asked for a better location and there was plenty to do in the local area. We visited the aqueduct, hired a canal boat for the day, visited Hawkstone Park Follies and went white water rafting. Barbara was a great host, welcoming us with her amazing cake and providing lots of information about things to do nearby. All in all this is probably the best accommodation we have stayed in and everyone in our family had a great time, the week just flex by. I wouldn't hesitate to book again and I don't believe anyone would regret booking Hampton Lodge for their holiday.

If I could give 10 stars I would, this lodge is perfectly located in seclusion and offers a sense of privacy & luxury away from the world. We spent one week with our 3 boys 1 under 2, 2 approaching teenagers and we were able to facilitate everyone's needs and enjoyment thanks to the well planned lodge layout and facilities. On top of that, Barbara who is quite clearly a legend, was very helpful in ensuring we had what we needed and we very much enjoyed chatting to her. The hydrotherapy hot tub is large and helped me with a joint condition I am currently recovering from. Our older boys loved the hot tub, badminton net and area to kick a football around. All in all given our busy family, we had the best week we could thanks to this place & would very much recommend it.

Perfect weekend getaway in the countryside with friends at the Hampton Lodge. Barbara was very welcoming and the cake on arrival was a really nice touch!

John Scott

The best holiday weve had in years. Hampton Lodge was fantastic and had everything we needed to enjoy a 5 star holiday. Cant recommend Hampton lodge highly enough. We will defiantly be back!

Stephen

Lovely quiet secluded location, the lodge and facilities are excellent, lovely ... Lovely quiet secluded location, the lodge and facilities are excellent, lovely owners that leave you to enjoy your break but are close by if needed, will definitely return and rebook this lodge, you won't be disappointed

Kristina

We had a lovely stay in Hampton lodge. It had everything we needed, the hot tub was amazing, beautiful surroundings. Very private as you cant see anything but nature around you. We loved seeing the sheep outside, the covered decking area was lovely especially as we had some sunny days. Perfect for watching the stars at night too. We had four generations staying from a toddler to elderly and we all enjoyed. One of the bulbs went in the bathroom and within half hour it had been repaired by the host. Lots to do within 30 minutes drive including the mere just down the road where we enjoyed feeding the ducks and walking. Everyone in the local area was friendly, we visited the town with a few shops and lovely bakery. Also visited the national ironworks centre, Oswestry, a few lovely local pubs and then back to the lodge to relax in the hot tub and take in the amazing views. We are definitely hoping to return in the future!

Lovely welcome from owner with tea ,coffee and a cake. Accomodation Lovely and clean,beautiful location,so peaceful thoroughly recommended.

A lovely house, immaculate, wellequipped and in a great area. Barbara was so friendly and helpful with advice on where to visit. We really appreciated the large livingdiningkitchen, and the fact that the hot tub was just on the verandah outside. It was too cold and windy to use the table tennis or badminton outdoors, but we went to Chester 12 hour drive, Blists Hill 1 hour and the Chirk canal tunnel and Pontcysyllte aqueduct. A surprising highlight was the trail around Hawkstone Follies which all three generations of us really enjoyed. We always have our family gettogethers at February half term and Hampton Lodge was brilliant for us. I just wish we could visit in summer too, when it must be even better! A welldeserved 5 stars.

Elizabeth

We booked Hampton lodge for a girls weekend and had the best stay. Beautiful lodge, got everything you need and feels like your in the middle of no where. Shops and takeaways just a ten minute drive away. Barbara was lovely too!

Howard

The Hampton Lodge was fantastic for me and my 4 siblings, it had everything we needed. The little touches that Barbara added like a hand baked cake waiting for us on arrival really made us feel welcome and wanted.

We had a wonderful stay at Hampton Lodge. The accommodation is superb and the surrounding areas beautiful and peaceful. The owner, Barbara, was so friendly and welcoming, even baking a cake for our arrival. There is plenty of information about various areas to visit, walks, cycling, places to eat, etc she has tried to think of everything a guest could possibly need. We enjoyed ourselves so much we are already talking about returning again next year!

Trevor

Excellent lodge and good location for exploring the area.

Paulette

Lovely home Owners were fabulous Would stay again

An amazing property in a fantastic location. We loved our week staying here and would definitely go back!

Connie

We recently visited Hampton Lodge for a family staycation 6 adults, 1 child and it was lovely from start to finish. The location was peaceful with lovely views. There was a thoughtful touch of home made Victoria sponge cake for our arrival. The accommodation itself was spacious, with lovely decor and furnishings and we immediately felt at home. The kitchen is well equipped and the beds comfy. Barbara has been a lovely host during our stay and made some great recommendations of places to visit which we took up. During the week we played a lot of badminton which made for some great competition!, cooked on the barbecue and relaxed in the hot tub. Overall a fantastic stay in great accommodation with lovely views. Would definitely recommend!

Leanne

Gorgeous property. Very spacious and lovely views. Hot tub was amazing. Lots of attention to attention to detail throughout the property. Thank you. We had a great weekend.

Hampton Lodge provides excellent accommodation in beautiful, secluded surroundings. The owner has provided everything required to ensure that customers have all they need to enjoy a 5 star plus holiday. Add to this top drawer cleanliness and a very well equipped private, individual property and you have a model for a very successful, worry free vacation. The owner goes the extra yard to ensure that all the facilities are in tip top order and provides highlydetailed guides to where to visit and where you might shop and eat. A first class facility and deservedly recommended. We will definitely return.

I can't recommend Hampton Lodge highly enough. Barbara, one of the owners was very accommodating, personable and caring. She came round to introduce us, help us settle in and provided a number of recommendations for places to visit. The lodge itself is lovely, fantastic location in terms of potential day trips for the family, but also a lovely setting with nice views and very cosy. Ellesmere and general amenities are also very close. I went with the family and they loved it.

Myself and the girls had an amazing relaxing stay at Hampton lodge. It was extremely clean and comfortable, we found the kitchen to be very well stocked with kitchen utensils for cooking. The hot tub was just perfect and extremely well looked after. Barbara communication was fantastic before hand as I had a number of questions before we arrived. She welcomes us on arrival and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. Barbara recommend a restaurant called The Boat House, we had lunch there one afternoon. Well the food and the service was absolutely fantastic I would also highly recommend it. Thank you and for our wonderful stay, we look forward to seeing you again soon.

Wonderful location, beautiful lodge and brilliant hosts. We would certainly visit again

Penelope

Absolutely fantastic stay for a girls weekend, we had a fabulous time. The lodge is beautiful and the owner is so lovely, you feel at home immediately. Would definitely recommend booking here to anyone who would like a quiet lodge getaway.

Myself an 7 friends have just returned from an amazing weekend at Hampton Lodge. The lodge itself exceeded our expectations, the setting was perfectyou are literally in the middle of nowhere so for those of you wanting to get away from it all then look no further.the lodge was just beautiful an enough space for all of us 840 something gin drinking ladies. Barbara the host was so welcoming, she made us feel at home straight away, gave us lots of recommendations if we wanted to venture outand made us the most gorgeous Victoria sponge cake as a welcome gift. We had a trip out to Ellesmere where we ate at the lovely Meze Greek Restaurant the food was amazing an they staff there was so lovely too, then we found a fab little bar call the Vault which had live music on Saturday night really good atmosphere an highly recommended if you do venture out of the lovely lodge. Ive got to mention Pete the taxi driverTennant taxishis number is in the information book provided at the lodgePete who we renamed Cliff dont ask was so accommodating with ushe did numerous trips ferrying us back an toolovely guy. We absolutely had the best time here and have already put our dates in for next year. Thanks Barbara for a memorable weekend.see you next year!!

Corrina

The lodge was really well equipped and of a high standard. Hosts were lovely and really helpful. It was what we would have expected in that price bracket, would certainly return at some point. Only point for improvement would be that we found the lounge area not really big enough for our group to comfortably relax, sofas could be comfier or better thought out. That's said we didn't find it too much of an issue as we sat at the table and outside mostly

We had a fantastic week at Hampton Lodge and Barbara was a lovely host, making sure we knew where everything was and gave us great local advice. Her cake was super light and didnt last very long! Lodge Beds were super comfy and the lodge was spotlessly clean on arrival. We made use of the hot tub most days. Rural location but idyllic, so if you need a cab during your stay, make sure you book in advance. Tennants taxis were fab. Local Tesco stocks everything you could want. Table tennis and badminton were great fun! Food and drink Boathouse in Ellesmere does an amazing chowder and their afternoon tea looked amazing, but we didnt get to try it Corn Mill in Llangollen has a lovely view of the river from the decking Sun Inn at Welshampton does a stunning Sunday roast Thai gate in Ellesmere is very tasty The Vault is an underground quirky pub Places to visit Llangollen Powis castle Whittington castle Ellesmere boating late and sculpture trail Overall we had a fantastic week away at Hampton Lodge and would thoroughly recommend it to anyone!

Wow what a fantastic place to be! Barbara the owner was more than helpful and even made us a beautiful cake. The property is immaculately clean and the beds are 10 out of 10 for comfort. We was provided with everything we needed other than food. Relaxing scenery with enough space to let your hair down and truly enjoy your surroundings. Will definitely be going back. There was only one downfall to this booking we didnt book long enough.
