The Porter's Lodge is a welcoming holiday cottage situated in Polesworth, a neighborhood in the larger market town of Tamworth, Warwickshire, in the Heart of England. This unique property occupies the first and second floors of a medieval gatehouse that leads to the historic Polesworth Abbey. Designed to accommodate two guests, it features a cozy king-size double bedroom with a distinctive sloping, beamed ceiling, a bathroom on the first floor, and an open-plan living area that combines the kitchen, dining space, and a sitting area complete with a woodburner, creating an inviting atmosphere for relaxation.
Guests at the Porter's Lodge can enjoy several amenities, including gas central heating, an electric oven, gas hob, microwave, fridge, freezer, washing machine, tumble dryer, and a dishwasher.

The property also offers off-road parking for two cars and access to the expansive grounds of the Abbey, making it a perfect retreat for couples seeking a peaceful getaway. One well-behaved dog is permitted, although smoking is not allowed on the premises.
Located just a two-minute walk from local shops and pubs, the Porter's Lodge provides guests with convenient access to essential amenities. However, potential visitors should note that the internal wooden staircase leading to the first floor may require some pets to be carried, and there is a shorter staircase to the bedroom. Additionally, guests may hear some noise from the nearby pub and social club, which adds a lively element to the area.
The surrounding region of Tamworth offers a wealth of attractions, including the historic Tamworth Castle and the Moat House, both of which highlight the town's rich heritage. For those seeking adventure, the Snowdome features a full-sized indoor ski slope with real snow, while Drayton Manor Theme Park promises fun for families. Cultural highlights in the area include the Artifex and the Battlefield of Bosworth Country Park, along with the National Exhibition Centre and The Lamb Ground for events and games, ensuring that visitors have plenty of options for exploration and entertainment during their stay.
