Hedgehog Lodge

Hedgehog Lodge is a welcoming single-storey lodge resting in Pocklington, near York. Ideal for families or friends, it offers parking, an expansive wrap-around deck with seating and BBQ, a large enclosed garden with children’s play equipment, and your own private hot tub. Slide open the doors to dine alfresco, listen to the breeze across the lawn, and sink into the hot tub under wide skies after a day out. Step inside to an open-plan living space where a crackling woodburning stove sets a mellow glow, and a generously sized sofa invites an easy pause between meals and movies. The kitchen is well-equipped for self-catering, with a double oven and ceramic hob, plus a dishwasher and laundry facilities to keep things effortless. WiFi and a Freeview TV support slow mornings and film nights. Three bedrooms are arranged for flexible stays: two doubles, and a bunk room tailored for younger guests. Two bathrooms complement the layout, one with a bath and shower over, and an en-suite with a walk-in shower.

When it’s time to explore, Pocklington’s Burnby Hall Gardens are close by, home to celebrated water lilies, lakeside walks, and a small museum—an uplifting micro‑adventure for all ages. In York, families can dive into the story‑rich JORVIK Viking Centre, where immersive rides and galleries bring the city’s Norse heritage to life, and then wander to the National Railway Museum for hands‑on engineering fun, iconic locomotives, and the Wonderlab gallery. Alternatively, head to Market Weighton to follow trails linked to ‘Giant’ William Bradley and enjoy gentle Wolds scenery on waymarked routes—perfect for a relaxed outing with the kids.
