“A great weekend in a very cosy, comfortable lodge in lovely countryside.”

The generous welcome basket was very welcome! The kitchen was well stocked with everything needed for a home away from home. Fully adjustable heating and hot water, just what's needed for a winter break. Thank you.

“We enjoyed the stay despite having no hot water, which meant having to boil the kettle every time we washed up or washed ourselves.”

We spent most of one afternoon filling the bath up. The hob on the oven tripped every time we used it and we were plunged into darkness. Jaime the owner was extremely helpful and we realised there was little he could do with a Brocken emersion heater. I did ring your telephone helpline Wednesday morning and spoke to someone, who said they would get back to me. I'm still waiting for that callback.

“A very comfortable lodge in a peaceful setting.”

Our first visit to the area and although weather wasn't kind we didn't let it affect our holiday. Lodge owners were lovely and even checked up on us personally to make sure we were comfortable enough/warm enough or if there was anything else we needed. Will definitely be going back, or even taking a look at their cottage (which they informed us about!)

“The lodge was nice and warm with great views out of the front window and a great welcome pack.”

Loved the horses and did see the Barn owl each day plus lots oof places to visit. Some lovely places to eat and the waterwheel down the lane is well worth a visit. The lodge does need work doing as the kitchen units are starting to peel plus the door on the washer is in need of repair, the tiles on the bathroom floor need replacing as well. We enjoyed our stay but feel that the lodge just needs a update in a number of places.

“Beautiful welcome hamper with fresh fruit was a lovely surprise.”

Jamie was very friendly and helpful when we struggled to get the hot water to work, even checking in on us to see if there were any other issues. Beds were very comfortable.

“We had a lovely holiday in the lodge.”

So well equipped with everything you need. The hamper on arrival was amazing absolutely everything in it even dog biscuits. The beds and bedding was so comfortable. The owners came to see if we settled in and had everything we needed then before we left they came to wish us a safe journey home that was lovely. To wake up to the horses in the field and the owl hooting and flying around was tranquil. We will definitely be back. Even without an enclosed garden it didn’t affect our holiday but if there was anyway to enclose it that would be a real plus.

“We enjoyed our stay in this lovely, clean and comfortable holiday lodge.”

We had everything we needed and a fab welcome basket on arrival. Thank you to Jamie, the owner, who popped by to make sure we were ok and to check to see if there was anything we needed. The hunting barn owl in the evening was an extra treat! The lodge is well positioned to explore the area with Saltburn, Whitby and all the coastal villages within a very short drive. We had a lovely time and the sun even made an appearance!

“I could feel myself relaxing as I got out of the car and took in the view.”

It's just incredibly peaceful and the wildlife is a bonus, especially the owl. The lodge was well equipped and the owner popped in the first evening to say hello and check we had everything. The welcome basket was very much appreciated, thank you for a wonderful stay, we would love to book again.

“A lovely and well equipped lodge set in peaceful surroundings with beautiful rural views.”

Property was spotless and a fantastic welcome basket awaited our arrival, even including dog treats. Owner called in to check all was OK. Beds were very comfortable and towels large and fluffy. Property is ideally situated for trips to the North York moors and coast. Would highly recommend and will absolutely stay again if we return to the area.

“The most wonderful location, so peaceful and quiet, a truly relaxing break.”

The welcome pack was the best we have ever experienced, extremely generous. Everything we needed was there. An absolutely great holiday, and we all hope to return again soon. Thank you for an amazing time.

Mandy February 2024

“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.”

The welcome pack on arrival was the best we’ve seen, it was more than we’ve received at other holiday lodges. The walks were amazing and so were the views, this place has so much to offer. Will we return? Of course we will!

“We had a great time at the lodge, it was in a perfect location for what we needed.”

Quiet and out of the way due to our dogs not liking fireworks. The comfort and cleanliness were great and Jamie was always on hand if there was a problem. The welcome basket was the best we have come across. The time away was topped off with seeing the Aurora Borealis, amazing experience, with the perfect night time weather hardly anylight pollution. Would definitely recommend it thankyou.

“Very nice and comfortably warm, the welcome hamper is very welcoming and the hosts are easy to talk to.”

I wish them well with the business they go about it in a very good way certainly one of the best we have experienced.

“We had a great few days in this peaceful location.”

The views over the countryside were great and it was a real treat to see the owls come and go at dawn and dusk. Located at the bottom of the farm's track so no traffic other than the seldom coming and goings of the farmers. Jamie was really helpful at the start of our trip and made some great recommendations for trips out (Runswick Bay being one). The property itself was perfectly formed for a family of five (plus dog) and it was so cosy during the Stormy weather. Then heating was quick to warm the property, and the beds were comfy. All in all this property worked perfectly for us which is not always the case in some holiday rentals. Will definitely return if back in the area, as there is much more to explore in this lovely part of the world. The garden is not enclosed as advertised but with no traffic this was not an issue for our little dog.

Steven October 2023

“The location was idyllic.”

The lodge clean and comfortable with a very much appreciated welcome basket. The owner popped by to make sure all was well ( which it was). Such a peaceful and tranquil setting was ideal for relaxing for those wanting to get away from it all. Near by was a pub doing a brilliant carvery and an excellent chip shop.Handy for trips to the coast and country walks. I hope we get chance to revisit.

“A well-equipped family lodge with comfy sofas and beds,well situated for visiting Saltburn, Staithes,Whitby, Goathland,and surrounding areas.”

A friendly welcome from Jamie,with a super thoughtful hamper enjoyed by all—even treats for Hugo the dog! It proved to be an ideal base for a lovely weekend.

Kevin September 2023

“We absolutely loved our stay in this beautiful lodge.”

The welcome hamper was a wonderful surprise and enjoyed by us all family of 6. The lodge itself was immaculately clean and the beds were super comfy. The daily visits by the horses was an added bonus and our children loved stroking them. The location was perfect everything just a little drive away. We can't recommend Salt Burn by the sea enough it was beautiful and reasonably priced we went 2 days on the run. Jamie the owner was fantastic and popped in to say hello. We will definitely be booking again, The Kelly family.

Lynne July 2023

“Brilliant stay home from home, welcome hamper was a lovely surprise spent the nights watching the nesting barn owls coming and going from the comfort of my settee and the nightly visits from the horses was fantastic.”

If you looking for peace and quiet this is the place for you. Plenty of room just as pictured
