About Us...

These Yorkshire lodges offer you the ideal base from which to explore the Yorkshire Dales and to unwind in peaceful surroundings.

The spacious accommodation consists of two bedrooms, bathroom, storage area and large open plan lounge/kitchen. Each lodge has its own outdoor decking with railings and picnic table for dining al fresco. The lodges are well laid out and very comfortable.
