Ingestre Lodges

Nestled within the idyllic village of Ingestre, close to Great Haywood in the heart of Staffordshire, is the, Grade II-listed Ingestre lodges. Ingestre Hall has been the home of the Chetwynd-Talbot family who in 1858 inherited the earldom of Shrewsbury and the lodges occupy one section of the quadrangle which forms the ‘New Stables’ building, which was built by the 20th Earl of Shrewsbury in 1886. The lodge features an open-plan living space, complete with contemporary kitchens, living and dining areas enhanced with elegant stylings created by Oscar-winning designer Luciana Arrighi. To the exterior is ample off-road parking and a shared courtyard space with garden furniture. A further outdoor area is through the kitchen door onto shared woodland with an individual dining area with garden furniture.
