The space
Willow Lodge is the second largest of the 12 modern Cedar Clad Billingsley Lodges, located on 6 acres of gated countryside, deep within the heart of the idyllic Severn Valley. Enjoy the tranquil environment from your secluded veranda or hot hub, surrounded by wildlife, nature and amazing stargazing opportunities.
The living space is open plan, with French doors that open onto the decking, complete with hot tub and stunning woodland views, which makes it a great place to unwind after a country walk or after you have explored the historic Shropshire towns of Bridgnorth, Bewdley and Ironbridge amongst others. See 'Neighbourhood Description' for local attractions and actives. The lodge is also a short drive from the picturesque Shropshire Hills that are an area of outstanding natural beauty, (AONB).
The kitchen is fully equipped with cooking utensils and there is a supply of herbs, spices, condiments, oil, tea, coffee and sugar. There is also a Tassimo coffee machine but you will need to provide your own pods.
There are 3 bedrooms;- a master bedroom with a King size bed, and a full ensuite, including both a full sized bath and a separate shower cubicle, the second bedroom, which has twin single beds, has a "Jack and Jill" bathroom which is both an ensuite and general bathroom. The third bedroom has a single bed.
Parking is available for 2 vehicles outside Willow Lodge. No parking is allowed on the grass.
There is reasonable storage areas for medium sports equipment. eg. bikes/kayaks below the decking veranda. This is an unsecured outside area so please bring your cycle locks.
French doors combine the open plan living area with the veranda, linking the modern lodge with the natural environment.
The hot tub is in use all year round and is checked and monitored daily, with frequent water changes.
Perfect dog walking area. Please see Dog Policy.
We advise booking well in advance for weekends due to the high demand.
The estate requests no loud parties on this site. You will be asked to leave if you cause a disturbance to others.
The hot tub may be emptied between guests. The water therefore may be warm when you arrive and not hot, this is unfortunate but cannot be helped.
Park Rules and Lodge policies apply. Please make yourself, and guests, aware of the rules prior to your visit.

Walks
Turn left out of the park, left again on the main road B4363, quick left again into next field. This is a public right of way. This footpath takes you to the Chorley road, turn left to take you to the Duck Inn at Chorley. This is a 2 mile walk along a country lane running alongside the woods, there is no footpath on this road.
Turn right out of Billingsley Park , walk along the road, again no footpath, turn left just past the derelict pub and follow the lane for about a mile to the ford. You can then turn right and walk down the old railway line.
Severn Valley Country Park (near Highley) and the Wyre Forest (near Bewdley) are fantastic walks for the dog and the family – have a good look on a map.
