Sandra
June 2026

“We rented 3 separate lodges here and to be honest we were disappointed with the cleanliness in general, dust all under beds, on floor and in wardrobe.”

The shower had not been thoroughly cleaned in our lodge as there was an old used soap on the shower wrack. There were cobwebs everywhere. We stayed just night before and on the wedding night only. We should have been staying 4 days but all of us just wanted to leave. The lodge was ideal for venue, beds were comfy, it could of done with aircon, luckily we took our own aircon with us.

- Sandra, June 2026

Thank you for your review , yes air con is the thing of the future with the weather patterns changing - we all used to complain every year about the rain in June and the horrendous summers - us British are never happy are we. We don't understand how the issue regarding the bathroom happened but we will certainly contact the management cleaning company however in respect of the cobwebs these due to the surrounding area ie ancient woodland its impossible to completely remove them we cant be there on a daily basis if however they were really annoying for you you should have contacted us and we could have sent the team across and dealt with them for you but as we say we couldn't come everyday.

“Lovely lodge.”

Beautiful inside and very convenient for Saltburn.

- Janine, September 2025

Thank you so much for your review , it’s perfect for popping into Saltburn and then retreat to the peace of the lodge park. Glad you liked Lavender lodge it’s very popular with it having a balcony to sit on and watch the wildlife and sun sets. Property Owner
Tammy August 2025

“Lavender Lodge was clean and tidy on the inside apart from the bed was very uncomfortable.”

The shower was excellent and a good range of cooking items. Unfortunately outside the decking rails where loose and our dog escaped, it was full of cobwebs and needed a good clean, so we didn't enjoy sitting outside in the sunshine. The peacocks roaming around was nice to see and they weren't noisy.

- Tammy, August 2025

Thank you for your kind review we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay. As we are in an ancient woodland and more especially in these extremely warm and dry conditions cobwebs do replace themselves extremely quickly , the trees have been dropping leaves due to the drought and we can only apologise that we can’t be on site each day to attend to it. There will have been a sweeping brush or a phone call to the team could have sent help to enhance your stay. Glad the peacocks were friendly - they do enhance the park and woodland areas. Hope to see you again. Property Owner

Michael September 2024

“Lovely suroundings and lodge, v peaceful.”

The mattress was not so good, too thin, lumpy, and cold. Maybe a blind at the front door, or a fence between lodges.

- Michael, September 2024
Ben May 2024

“Lodge was nice however was very disappointed with cleanliness of the lodge, dog hear everywhere, clearly not cleaned before our stay.”

Probably the worse thing when I've got a severe dog allergy. Didn't sleep the friday night as it set my asthma off. They cleaned it Saturday after requesting in the morning and after that it was fine. However we still also cleaned it Saturday morning. Don't go on holidya to do cleaning. General maintenance of the park was lacking aswell. Spoke to others on site who said they were disappointed with maintenance of park aswell.

- Ben, May 2024

Thank you for your feedback , our team aim to maintain a high standard as the many kind reviews confirm we dont have any lodges which dont accommodate dogs but sorry we missed some under the bed you moved to allow you to lay the mattress in the lounge area, our grounds are for the wildlife & guests and we operate , a minimal “Mow in May “ and leave the grass a little wild in parts for the beautiful wild flowers and mainly to provide cover for the baby peacocks & ducklings etc did you catch a glimpse of any wandering around. We have had a fair few rainy days here but hopefully the weather will be kinder to us all over the summer months ahead. Property Owner

“Where is the pub .”

5 mile away. booked due to illness and wanting to be close to pub/ restaurant did not find

- Stephen, May 2024

Marstens pub which serves food is at roundabout before you get to Asda - cant miss it . They are all listed in the Welcome pack sent to you and a copy is in the Lodge. Property Owner
Carl May 2024

“My wife and I stayed here for 3 nights with our dog.”

We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Good walks for our dog, and us, beautiful setting and great enjoyment of the birds that regularly visited the site, peacocks and ducks. There is a good commercial site very close by, with Asda, Aldi, Domino's, McD's, Greggs. We will definitely stay here again.

Thank you for your review - hope to see you again Property Owner
Sylvia March 2024

“The property was very modern and clean.”

Could have done with some coat hooks though. The position of Lavender Lodge was really good and we loved Saltburn and the peacocks and everything around. Really good place and I’m sure we will be visiting again.

- Sylvia, March 2024

Thank you for your feedback we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. Did you find the coat hooks in the utility room? Property Owner

“Lavender Lodge was a one bedroom Lodge but it was spacious enough for two people ...”

Lavender Lodge was a one bedroom Lodge but it was spacious enough for two people and a dog as always the accommodation was clean and well maintained, the weather was good for the time of year and we had many days out, the Lodges are in a peaceful setting and not far from Saltburn a few minutes by car and Aldi and Asda are only a few minutes away by car and there is a nic pub there Longacre which is good value for food and drinks and friendly staff, we have stay at Rushpool Holiday Homes several times and find it one of Saltburns hidden secrets and would recommend the Lodges for value for money and gauranted a good holiday

- David, September 2023

Thank you very much for your kind review so pleased you enjoyed your stay again. Look forward to seeing you again soon. Property Owner

Rebecca September 2022

“The lodge was lovely and clean throughout!”

The only small thing was that the pole securing one of the shower panels had become detached. It made no difference to the quality of our stay or of the quality of the shower. All-in-all if that is the only thing 'wrong' with a lodge, then it's a great place to stay

- Rebecca, September 2022
Susan September 2022

“Very clean well equipped modern cottage set in beautiful surroundings.”

Very peaceful. Well placed for visiting lots of great places round and about.

David July 2022

“We were delighted.”

The rooms were all exceptionally clean and bright and modern and really comfortable to relax in. The grounds are fantastic and very peaceful and relaxing. We loved the welcome pack and the treats for our dog. We enjoyed Saltburn which really is a little gem. Free parking on the cliff top which is amazing and something that saltburn should keep. We will definitely be back.

- David, July 2022

We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. Yes Saltburn is a gem but keep it quiet lol. Look forward to seeing you again soon. Property Owner
John June 2022

“We enjoyed our stay at Lavender Lodge and would return.”

There were however several things that we believe would enhance the experience. 1. There is a extremely smart, modern, hob/oven in the kitchen area. There was also comprehensive instructions on how to use the oven. Regrettably the instructions were for a different oven! Had to guess what setting to put it on, regrettably guessed wrong. Dinner spoilt. 2. There were 5 wine glasses provided. Every one of them was a different shape and size. A small point but annoying. 3. There were no extra blankets provided and 2 nights were particularly cold.

- John, June 2022

Thank you for your feedback We checked the Welcome pack and found that the instruction booklet matched exactly with the oven installed so unsure of what you mean? Sometimes guests attending Functions at the neighbouring Hotel bring glasses back from the bar - we will double check them and take them back to them. The Lodges are fully insulated so we have never offered nor been asked for blankets as we only open during the warmer months. We do supply 13.5 tog duvets and a throw and let you control the Lodge heating temperature up to a level that is comfortable for you - no restrictions. Any issues you had during your stay could have been dealt with quickly by ringing us on the number provided in the Welcome pack - we hope it did not spoil your stay Property Owner

“We stayed at Lavender Lodge and arrived to find a welcome basket with an assortment of tea, biscuits and cherry wine.”

The facilities were first rate and included a freezer, washer/dryer, vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, tea towels, cleaning products and even an iron and ironing board. All the rooms were a good size and the cleanliness was excellent as was the level of maintenance, the decorating was to a high standard as was the choice of furnishings. The outdoor space was big enough to stretch out on and it was fully enclosed which was great for keeping the dog from wandering off, although he spent a good deal of time sitting stock still and eyeing up the peacocks that strutted around the grounds. With regards to the location, you are surrounded by trees with the gothic spires of the Rushpool Hotel visible through the foliage. There is a lovely wooded walk which makes for a pleasant first thing and last thing dog walk. Just down the road from the main entrance (turn right and it's just before the island) there is a public footpath that will take you down to Skelton Beck and from there you have a massive choice of paths to take you into Saltburn-by-the-Sea and/or its gardens. In the coffee table drawer you'll find a good variety of pamphlets showing you what activities, attractions etc. are available to you locally or a bit further afield. As far as any cons to this holiday lodge are concerned... the Rushpool Hotel specialises in hosting weddings/receptions and so you can expect some noise from parties, but it was never excessive and it never went on too late. And that's it really apart from wanting to cook something in the oven and being Aga users we were a bit stumped until we had a look through the Grey Folder of Knowledge and found instructions. We would highly recommend a stay here if you are looking for a well presented, clean and fresh lodge in quiet, wooded surroundings with plenty of things to do in the surrounding area.
