Well-positioned between Pickering and Thornton-le-Dale, this cosy wooden lodge makes a wonderful base for a memorable family holiday. 2 miles away, take a ride on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway – a charming steam train journey through the moors all the way to Whitby. Outdoor adventures await in Dalby Forest (11.5 miles), with walking and cycling trails, forest play areas, and an exciting treetop adventure course. Flamingo Land (5.5 miles) is another family favourite, packed with theme park rides and a zoo full of animals to discover. For a day of history and grandeur, visit Castle Howard (15.5 miles), where children can explore the gardens and adventure playground while adults take in the impressive architecture. Whitby, Scarborough, and Filey (all within 25 miles) offer golden sands, fish and chips, and classic seaside fun. Visit the cathedral city of York (26 miles) and explore its history and architecture, as well as the many shops, eateries and attractions on offer.
Step into your tranquil retreat through a covered porch and into a boot room – the ideal spot to kick off muddy boots or unwind after a day of adventures. With a cushioned bench and plenty of storage, it’s a thoughtful touch that sets the tone for your stay. Inside, the open plan living, dining, and kitchen area is bright, beautifully designed, and perfectly proportioned for relaxed holiday living. Sink into the corner sofa, turn on the flame-effect fire, and settle in for a movie night with the Smart TV. The sleek kitchen is fully equipped for self-catering, with all the utensils, crockery, and glassware you’ll need. A sleek downstairs bathroom with a large bath and overhead shower adds extra convenience, and luxurious touches like fluffy towels, bathrobes, and slippers are all provided for your comfort. Upstairs, the elegant master bedroom features a king-size bed, dressing table, and wall-mounted Smart TV for lazy lie-ins. Next door, the twin bedroom is a dream for younger guests (or the young at heart), with a TV and PlayStation 4, allowing for multiplayer fun without leaving the room. And with luxurious Hypnos mattresses in every bedroom, you’re guaranteed a good night’s sleep.
No Scandi-style cabin would be complete without a private hot tub – this one’s covered by a canopy, so you can enjoy a soothing soak come rain or shine. The outdoor space also includes seating and a charcoal BBQ for al fresco dinners under the stars. There’s parking for one car right outside your lodge, with additional parking available on-site.
