2 Bed Lodge in Pickering

About this property

Nestled between Pickering and Thornton-le-Dale, this cosy wooden lodge puts your family within easy reach of North Yorkshire’s top attractions. All aboard the North Yorkshire Moors Railway 2 miles away, where a heritage steam train whisks you through dramatic moorland scenery to Whitby. For outdoor adventures, Dalby Forest (11.5 miles) boasts walking and cycling trails, forest play areas, and even a treetop adventure course. Flamingo Land (5.5 miles) is a guaranteed hit with theme park rides and a zoo full of fascinating animals. If you fancy a taste of history and grandeur, Castle Howard (15.5 miles) has spectacular architecture, gardens to explore, and a great playground for younger visitors. When it’s time for some sea air, Whitby, Scarborough, and Filey are all within 25 miles for beach days, fish and chips, and classic seaside fun. For a spot of culture, head to York (26 miles) and explore some of its many museums and exciting events on offer.

Begin your stay in the thoughtfully designed ‘bootility’ area and kick off muddy boots after a countryside stroll. Wander through to the open-plan kitchen, lounge and dining area – a welcoming, beautifully finished space. Floor-to-ceiling bi-fold doors flood the lodge with natural light, while the large corner sofa invites you to sink in, switch on the wood burner-effect electric fire and enjoy uninterrupted woodland views. A Smart TV with PS4, offers games, movies and catch-up TV at your fingertips. The kitchen is both stylish and functional, complete with shaker units, quartz worktops and a solid wood breakfast bar. The calming colour palette continues into the spacious master bedroom, where you'll find a walk-in wardrobe, a dedicated dressing area and a private en-suite shower room. The twin bedroom features a wardrobe and also has an en-suite bathroom, ensuring everyone has their own space. Both bedrooms come with their own Smart TVs for slow mornings or evening wind-downs. A separate WC is located near the front entrance for added convenience.

Step out onto the expansive decking area and soak up your peaceful surroundings. With comfortable outdoor furniture, woodland views and your own private hot tub, it’s the perfect spot to unwind after a day exploring the North York Moors. A charcoal BBQ is also provided for those who fancy a little al fresco dining. Private parking is available for one car directly beside the lodge, with additional on-site parking available if needed.
