  So I wish I could include photos here as you would never stay in this cottage and unlikely to stay in a Sykes accommodation again.

  You needed a 4x4 to travel up the drive my car bottomed out several times with the potholes. Outside lights not working couldn’t see a thing, slippery decking slope couldn’t see key safe ridiculous. First initial impressions when entering were very positive, nice space and well laid out.and a welcome food pack Then… handle on the kitchen cupboard fell off, I noticed the floor kick board was kicked in. So the en-suite bathroom, the toilet was dirty,, I mean black stains and residue on the toilet seat, there was mould all over shower tray, water would not drain and after inspection found full of hair, shower glass filthy, shower extractor fan seemed poor under inspection clogged with dust. Main bathroom, the bath panel was kicked in, skirting rotted with damp, chrome filthy. Bedroom 3 with two singles, we used a cot, but both beds had broken slats so fell through when sat on them to dress the baby. I have phots of all this. Asked owner for assistance with outside lighting as it was dangerous his comment still on my phone was, “we had the opposite our lights on all night”,not what I wanted to hear. He came round and asked if all good with the property, it was New Year’s Eve and rather than cause a scene as I was so angry and upset and not in the best of moods and my partner didn’t want me to have a confrontation with him so I said all Ok, I wish I had shown him round I’m sure he would not have believed his eyes. Contacted Sykes sent them the photos, thought there might be compensation, a written apology. What a joke……… i

  This is a fabulous lodge, in an excellent location.

  We were so lucky to have found it, it made our stay in North Yorkshire perfect. It was well situated to reach all the places we wanted to visit. It was spacious, spotlessly clean and very well equipped. It had the comfiest beds I've ever slept in. The whole lodge had a touch of luxury about it from the lovely soft carpets in the bedrooms, the chandeliers, the modern kitchen and ensuite bathrooms to the hot tub ( the only point about the hot tub we did have was it could have been a bit bigger, as we are all really tall people). The terrace area at the back was completely private and the view to the hills lovely. My daughter loved watching the rabbits and pony in the field behind us. The lodge park is gated and safe for children to play. It it situated behind a pub called The Blackwell Ox Inn, which is a great little place, with a beer garden. It mainly serves excellent Thai food, but also has other options. The pub is quite busy, but that had no impact on the lodge as it was situated just far enough away for it to be still quiet and tranquil. It was good to have somewhere to pop in after a day out, if you want to. The staff were really friendly. We would definitely recommend this place to stay.

  Lovely clean lodge, with good quality funiture and equipment.

  Great welcome pack including a bottle of wine which was much appreciated, as were some wonderful fresh raspberries delivered on arrival. The two bathrooms were ideal for us as a family of adults, lashings of lovely hot water, so all could shower and bath as required. Lots of magazines and games for use if the weather wasn't good. Very well eqipped with washing mashine, dishwasher, microwave, smart TV and Wi Fi, although it would have been useful to have some instructions on how to use the equipment, the cooker took me some time to work out how to use it as I have never used an electric cooker. We had a very comfortable stay, which was excellent value for the facilities on offer. The beds were a little too soft for us as we like a firm mattress, but that is a personal preference. We would happily book a stay here again.

  Just arrived back from a lovely week at the lodge.

  Kay the host is very welcoming & on hand if needed. Gorgeous welcome treats from Terrington tea rooms, try the sweet chilli sausage rolls. The lodge is in a perfect location for visiting lots of neighbouring towns, York, the coast, Malton etc. Castle Howard is beautiful and a short drive away. There are several local pubs, Crown and Cushion was a good find with a pizza place opposite. The Lodge was very clean, beautiful views & animals, a lovely swing seat and of course the hot tub which was perfect to relax in at the end of the day. All looked very pretty with the fairy lights at night and is a good place to view stars weather permitting. The only feedback really would be there was no Internet/WiFi and I had zero signal so couldn't research things. Although it did give me a break from my phone

  The property was located in a remote location in the country side which was exactly what we were looking for.

  You did not have to worry about other people. Owner was quick to respond, friendly and very welcoming. Felt very safe whilst here. I think it is a perfect getaway for couples. Unfortunately it wasn’t as warm as I would’ve liked it to be, but then again we travelled 4 hours from down south so I put it down to acclimatisation. We also did a lot of cooking and the cooking supplies was absolutely sufficient for cooking anything. The hot tub definitely made this stay worthwhile! I recommend everyone to bring their own wet slippers! Thank you for providing us such a delightful and pleasant stay. Sulabh & Jade
