An extremely spacious, clean, well decorated, well furnished, very comfortable lodge with the fantastic bonus of a hot tub. The staff were really helpful and friendly and offered lots of advice on places to visit and eat etc. Situated right on the river it was very peaceful and relaxing and a perfect place to be, and to explore local attractions. Lots of places to visit (particularly Fountains Abbey, Ripley Castle, Blymore icecream parlour and many more) all with a maximum drive of approximately 20 minutes. Everything was perfect and we can't wait to visit again! | ||
