Newly built in 2026, this impressive lodge is set within the 85-acre wooded estate of the Saltmoore Hotel, on the North Yorkshire coast between the charming village of Sandsend (1.5 miles) and vibrant Whitby (3 miles), home to the iconic ruined abbey. Immaculately designed for couples, friends or families, the lodge offers a tranquil base from which to enjoy seaside strolls, outdoor adventures and days exploring pretty fishing villages and fascinating towns. Within the estate itself, guests can make use of the luxury renovated spa, with treatments, a gym and three restaurants. Wander down to the beach, less than half a mile away, and enjoy a picnic, a paddle in the surf or some rock pooling. Whitby Golf Club is just over half a mile away, or if you head inland, you can discover the beauty and tranquillity of the North York Moors National Park.
Designed by renowned architects to blend gently into the landscape, and featuring a ‘green’ roof and dramatic zinc cladding, the single-storey lodge is one of a boutique collection of carefully crafted, luxury holiday properties on the site. From the parking area, follow the gravel path to the furthest lodge and climb the 18 external steps to your front door. Your stunning getaway is elevated on stilts to make the most of its stunning views of the countryside and the sea. Leave shoes and coats in the entrance area, and head into the open-plan living space, where you’ll immediately be drawn to the floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding glazed door, which frame the extraordinary views and allow light to flood in. White walls and oak floors are the backdrop to a gently coastal-themed colour palette, and even in cooler months, you’ll feel comfortably cosy, thanks to underfloor heating throughout – powered by an air source heat pump for reduced energy usage. Make the most of the high-quality kitchen to create delicious meals – a microwave and a dishwasher will help make cooking and cleaning up a breeze – and enjoy them at the spacious dining table in the centre of the room. At the end of a busy day, sink into the soft seating, which is gathered around a Smart TV, ready for you to stream your favourite shows. When it’s time for bed, head back past the lobby to find three superb bedrooms, all with wonderful views. One is an incredible king-size with a Smart TV and en-suite shower room; the others share a sleek family bathroom.
Experience the delights of indoor/outdoor living when you slide back the door to your elevated, private terrace. This beautiful, sunny space is equipped with a table and chairs for you to enjoy the fresh sea air from your morning coffee until a starlit supper. For convenient arrivals and departures, you will have an allocated parking space, and if you need further spaces, you may use the hotel car park, where there are EV charging points.
