Nestled in the heart of the magnificent North York Moors, this chic, contemporary lodge is the perfect escape for families, couples, and their four-pawed pals. Sleeping four guests, enjoy far-reaching countryside views and your own private hot tub in the enclosed garden that’s also ideal for a game of fetch.
Step into the welcoming boot room, wipe muddy paws and kick off your walking boots before ambling into the beautiful open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. Decorated in soft neutrals and calming blues, this light-filled room features floor-to-ceiling windows framing countryside views. In the warmer months, throw open the bi-fold doors to create a seamless indoor-outdoor flow, with direct access to the enclosed garden. After a day of exploring, sink into the L-shaped sofa with your canine curled at your feet and catch up on a film on the Smart TV, or play a board game. Cook up a hearty supper in the designer kitchen, with its quartz worktops and high-end appliances, before sharing a meal at the wooden dining table or grabbing a quick bite at the breakfast bar. When it’s time to sleep, the king-size bedroom with en-suite shower and the twin room with en-suite bathroom offer luxury bedding, Smart TVs, and soothing decor for a restful night after long countryside rambles. Your private, enclosed garden means your loyal companion can safely sniff, roam, and roll in the grass while you unwind on the deck with a glass of wine. Fire up the BBQ for an al fresco feast, then slip into the bubbling hot tub for a well-earned soak under the stars. The lodge has private parking for one car, with additional spaces available on site.
Start your day with frolics in the dog-walking field then pack up the lead and treats and head out on tail-wagging adventures. Take a stroll into Thornton-le-Dale (1 mile) to wander its pretty streets or enjoy a relaxed lunch in a welcoming country pub, where wagging tails are welcome. Take your faithful hound for a bracing run along the Cleveland Way, or spend a day on the dog-friendly stretches of beach at Scarborough (17 miles) or Whitby (21.5 miles), with its iconic abbey ruins and 199 steps. If you fancy a change of scenery, explore the Howardian Hills, while history hounds can wander around the grounds of Castle Howard (15.5 miles).
