Guests appreciate the well-equipped facilities, comfortable furnishings, and the peaceful setting that enhances relaxation. The lodge's proximity to local amenities and attractions in the Yorkshire Dales adds to its appeal.

Guests frequently commend the lodge for its spotless condition and the sense of a warm, welcoming environment upon arrival. The high standard of cleanliness contributes significantly to the overall positive experience.
The lodge's location is celebrated for its quiet and peaceful surroundings, with easy access to local villages and attractions. The presence of bird life and the proximity to nature trails are particularly appreciated.
Comfort is highlighted with mentions of excellent beds, bedlinen, and a spacious layout. Some guests suggested additional amenities such as fans for hot days and bath mats for safety, which slightly affected the score.
The lodge is well-furnished and equipped for a comfortable stay, with a utility room and quality kitchenware. However, the lack of Wi-Fi and some specific kitchen items were noted, indicating room for improvement.

Around 7 miles from Malham and its breathtaking limestone cove and scar is this picturesque village perched on the Aire River. The community has a few places to eat, including a great Indian restaurant, as well as a few bars, cafes, and stores. Gargrave is a great place to stay if you want to explore the surrounding area of Yorkshire, as it is crossed by the Pennine Way, the Pennine Bikeway, and the Leeds-Liverpool Canal. Skipton, "The Gateway to the Dales," is only four miles away, and it is an ancient market town with a historic castle and a famed main street. This area, just on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, is fantastic for outdoor pursuits including hiking, biking, and sightseeing.

We love this lodge. It is presented to a very high standard in terms of cleanliness and comfort. We appreciated phone help when we had some âpilot errorâ with the tv. A quiet and pleasant setting with easy parking. We hope to return.
