  It was clean, comfortable, warm, and in a delightful setting. It was a lovely base to return to after a day out exploring the area. The owners were really friendly and welcoming, and the ‘goodies’ were appreciated. We will definitely return and will highly recommend to friends and family.

• "We spent 5 nights at Willow lodge and had a great time."

  The lodge is beautifully furnished, spotlessly clean and has everything you need for a home away from home. The lodge is set in pretty manicured grounds and we loved watching the wildlife each day. The owners were on hand if we needed anything and were very welcoming and friendly. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending this property to anyone looking for a getaway and would definitely book again. We had a dog with us and it was secure for him to be outside and enjoyed walks around the countryside with him.

• "Could not recommend this place more highly!"

  Me, my wife and our dog stayed for a lovely long weekend in ‘Willow Lodge’ (one of 2, soon to be 3 block built/wood clad lodges) in the fortnight leading up to Christmas, and it was perfect. The hosts have thought of everything for a perfect stay with lots of welcome extras (including a lovely Christmas tree) and spotless warm and very cozy accommodation. It is perfectly located on the edge of the Moors and in our short stay we visited Castle Howard, Malton, Helmsley, Hutton-Le-Hole, Whitby and York, but lots of other picturesque little market towns we’d still love to visit. Our dog loved the walk into the village and the countryside surrounding the lodge. We’ll have to make it a longer visit next time!

  Pleased to hear you enjoyed your time at Willow Lodge. Look forward to seeing you again! Property Owner

  The extra touches, fresh flowers and the treats which were waiting for us were gratefully received, as we were celebrating my husbands 60th birthday. It’s the nicest lodge we have stayed in and will definitely be back, hopefully the weather will be more kind next time!. We would of wished for an earlier check in time, feel 5pm is a bit late especially as we had a 15 month old ready for her tea!! But this won’t stop us returning, A fantastic place

  As a family of 4 adults, with two lively dogs it was perfect for us. Walking distance to pubs and shops, which was handy as we wanted to leave the car some of the time. The grounds around the lodges were not completely enclosed, but safe enough for our dogs who like a run about under supervision. Fortunately the neighbours also had friendly dogs and didn't mind the odd 'visit'. The lodge itself was comfortable, with a small well-equipped kitched. We enjoyed doing a bit of cooking, so long as there was only one chef in the kitchen. The welcome pack was also very welcome! Overall, we had a great break and will definitely consider returning next year.
