Welcome to Wharton Lodge
A home from home, not just a place to sleep
Surrounded by parkland and manicured gardens, our three cottages - Elgar, Grosvenor and Harewood - sit around a quiet courtyard three miles from the market town of Ross-on-Wye.
Each has a character of its own, and every stay begins the same way: fresh flowers on the table, a welcome hamper on the side, and nothing you have to do next except put the kettle on.

Two are made for couples, one hosts up to four. Two open onto private walled courtyard gardens - and Grosvenor and Harewood keep a place for your dog.
Sleeps 2–3 · Private walled courtyard garden
Grosvenor
Nestled between Elgar and Harewood, with parkland on one side and the courtyard on the other - and a stable door onto a private walled garden made for al fresco dinners and stargazing.
Step inside Grosvenor
Sleeps 4 · Stylish and sociable
Harewood
The sociable one - two king-size bedrooms for up to four, an open-plan living room around a painted fireplace, and stable doors front and back onto the courtyard and a private walled garden.
Step inside Harewood
Step outside
Fountains, a furnished glasshouse, and fourteen acres to yourselves
Listen to water falling in the walled garden, unwind with a book in the glasshouse, or stroll the parkland as the sun sets over the tree-covered hills.
Beyond the gate: the Wye Valley and Forest of Dean, castles at Goodrich, Eastnor and Chepstow, and everything from kayaking and paddle boarding to GoApe.
Two of our cottages keep a place for your dog
We are dog lovers ourselves - Grosvenor and Harewood welcome one well-behaved dog by prior arrangement, with walks in every direction.
In our guests' words
“So special we booked our second stay before we'd finished our first.”
“Excellent in every way - spotlessly clean, beautifully furnished and very well equipped.”
“If you do book, book a day or two extra, because you'll not want to leave.”
The kettle is on. The gardens are waiting.
See live availability for Elgar, Grosvenor and Harewood - or call and Nicky will happily help you choose between them.
Guests return year after year - one stay is never enough
