Lovely lodge with everything that you need. Clean and spacious and smelt amazing. Lovely and warm. Great place to get away from everything. Nearest shop about fifteen minutes car drive away. York close and easy to get too. Little lake to fish and veranda to sit out on. Owners friendly and helpful that live on site. Would highly recommend!!!!Only thing that could make it better would be a smart tv for those cosy nights in :
