Pop open a bottle of bubbly while overlooking the wildlife pond in this dog-friendly hot tub getaway. Up to six guests can stay in this bright, country-style lodge on a quiet holiday park in a quaint Yorkshire village outside of York. Spend your time away exploring the cobblestone streets of York, trying out the water sports at Allerthorpe Lake or hiking the Howardian Hills National Landscape.
Step inside the property and find yourself in the yellow, grey and white open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with deer-themed ornaments and decor. Natural light pours through the windows and patio doors which lead to the outdoor decking. Two comfortable sofas with blankets and cushions surround the Smart TV. Adjacent is a chic white and wooden dining table. The farmhouse-style galley kitchen has plenty of space for preparing a hearty meal for your loved ones on the wooden worktops. Completing the interior is a family shower room plus three bedrooms – a super-king-size zip-and-link and two king-size, one with an en-suite. Outside you’ll find an enclosed garden and decking area with furniture, BBQ and a hot tub.
Explore the grounds of the holiday park to find picturesque woodland walking paths, cycling trails and a fishing lake. You can also hire bikes and use the bowling green or tennis courts. Dine out at one of the eateries in the nearby village of Riccall (1 mile) and wander along the River Ouse (2 miles). Take a picnic to Stillingfleet Lodge Garden (5 miles) or visit the Skipwith Common National Nature Reserve (3.5 miles). For an action-packed adventure on the water, spend a day at Allerthorpe Lake (18 miles). Just 9 miles north are the cobblestone streets, museums and sightseeing trails of the historic city of York.
