Snaptrip says
Swinsty Lodge in Harrogate is a well-received holiday rental, praised for its cleanliness, comfortable accommodation, and ideal location for exploring the Yorkshire Dales. Guests appreciate the quiet, secluded setting on a working farm, the well-equipped kitchen, and the enclosed garden, especially those with dogs. The welcoming owner and the opportunity to experience farm life add to the charm of the lodge.
Guests that stayed at this property said
Guests consistently describe the lodge as very clean and well-maintained, which indicates high standards of cleanliness.
The lodge's location is appreciated for its seclusion, quietness, and proximity to local attractions and dining, making it an ideal base for exploring the area.
The lodge is generally found to be comfortable, with an enclosed garden that is enjoyed by pets. However, some minor points regarding wear and tear slightly affect the comfort score.
Facilities are well-regarded, particularly the well-stocked kitchen. Some concerns about maintenance issues such as the kitchen tap, blinds, and remotes slightly lower the score.
While guests have not mentioned specific gifts, the owner's friendliness and the invitation to see farm activities demonstrate thoughtfulness. However, due to the lack of mention of gifts, this score is set to null.

The lodge is well equipped with everything you need and with an enclosed garden which our dog loved. The owner greeted us on arrival and was so friendly and helpful. Thank you for a relaxing break, would like to have stayed longer.
