Itâs one of those places that I know Iâll visit again because it really is that lovely. Itâs literally 4 mins drive into Saltburn so very handy - but its location makes you feel youâre in the middle of nowhere. Plenty on road parking, full information pack too which was really helpful. If there are 6 (or 5) then itâs worth knowing you have to pass through the twin room to get to the king room. We were fine due to the makeup of our party but I think itâs something worth being aware of.
