The Apple Rooms

A bespoke collection of six individually designed boutique en-suite bedrooms.

Welcome to The Apple Rooms at Houghton Lodge Gardens

We have transformed a range of redundant calf sheds to six bespoke en suite studio rooms, two are fully accessible. Each is named after a variety of apple growing in the walled garden.

We have furnished each room with antique furniture, some from our house and some bought at local auctions. Each room has a kitchenette with a microwave, kettle, toaster, Grind coffee machine and fridge (but not an oven or hobb). The bathrooms have been designed with automatic lighting, a non-misting ‘smart’ mirror, heated floor and towel rail; Fluffy white towels and toiletries from The White Company.

There is a communal BBQ, lawn area with tables and chairs, cycle pod, and when the walled garden is closed in the evening you are welcome to use it. We can provide a luxury continental breakfast hamper and a get up and go breakfast basket. We give a voucher for free garden access during your stay and for early risers there is a riverside walk. We are very pet friendly!

We are fortunate that there are many places to eat in Stockbridge, 5 minutes by car, and The Boot Inn, a 10 minute walk away.

Apart from our gardens there are many interesting places to visit as we are 12 miles from Winchester, 15 miles from Salisbury, 8 miles from Romsey and 20 miles from Southampton. Stonehenge is about 40 minutes away depending on the traffic!

We hope you will come and stay and enjoy everything this wonderful part of England has to offer.

Best wishes,
Daniel and Sophie
