The lodge is appreciated for its peaceful countryside location, conveniently situated within easy reach of York, Scarborough, and other attractions, making it an ideal base for exploring East Yorkshire.

Guests find the lodge comfortable, highlighting the quality of the beds and the luxury of the showers. The wood-fired hot tub adds to the comfort, providing a relaxing experience.

Facilities are generally well-received, with a fully equipped lodge and unexpected amenities like a dishwasher. However, some guests mention issues with shower flooding and the absence of a washing machine, which slightly affects the score.

    Was a brilliant touch having the hot tub already warm when we arrived which we all loved. The property is located in an ideal location to head to york or the coast. Will definitely be back

    Had a great stay

  • Emma

    The property was so clean and welcoming. The owner took the time to heat the wood fired hot tub up for us on the day of our arrival so that we didn't have to wait for it to heat up. The little things like the tea and coffee basket with a few biscuit and savory treats was such a lovely touch and made us smile when we first arrived. Everything was thoroughly thought out and we couldn't have enjoyed it more. The only negative was...we just weren't there long enough! Next time, we will definitely be booking for longer!! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay.
