It could not be beaten for peace and quiet and really smart lodge accommodation. The owners are really nice people who could not do too much for you. The fishing lake is very good and the location lends itself to easy sight-seeing as well - a great place. This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

Excellent accommodation and far exceeded our expectations! 5 Star! This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

Very welcoming, friendly and relaxing. Perfect break away from it all. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

The holiday accommodation was superb and the owner "Don", very friendly and helpful. I would recommend the place to anyone and have done so already to friends and family! Thank you Don for a great time!! When can we come back??? This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

Very peaceful and well kept location yet close enough to York and nice local villages. The owners keep these lodges absolutley spotless and couldnt do enough for you. We definatley plan to go back and would reccommend to anyone. This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

The quality of the lodge and the peace and quiet made it the perfect place to chill out and rest. This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

Highly recommended and great value. The lodges are a clever eco design and very warm and cosy, in fact will be just as ideal through the winter especially at Christmas. I can't complain about anything, and the owners were very responsive and ensured we had everything we expected. I must agree with other reviews praising this park. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

An excellent holiday for relaxation. North Yorkshire was very beautiful with lots of locations within easy driving distance and our welcome was second to none! This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

Tranquil surroundings, ideal for getaway breaks. First class service from owners who go out of their way to ensure that everything is perfect. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

A wonderful place to relax. The lodge was first class, excellent location, good fishing and the owners Don and Helen are lovely. We were made so welcome it was just like visiting old friends. We were sad to leave and will be going back. This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

The location was excellent, a peaceful setting, plenty of wildlife and the fishing was great. The accommodation was of a high standard, and the kitchen was top class. The owners were very friendly and helpful, we had an enjoyable weekend and will be back. This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

This was our fourth time at Great Wood and that says it all! It's the sort of place where you just look forward to going back. Everytime we've been, the welcome from Don and Helen has been warm and friendly, and the lodges are immaculate and built to a very high standard. The fishing is superb (topped off this time with three 9lb+ carp), the fish are all in excellent condition and the area around the lodges is teaming with a variety of wildlife. Great Wood has to be given a "highly recommended"! This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

This was our second visit,and was just as enjoyable as the first time,lodge beautiful and spotlessly clean,very relaxing and peaceful. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

If it's relaxation you're after then look no further than Great Wood, as far as luxury lodges are concerned Great Wood is second to none. Your host Don & Helen are always on hand to offer any assistance and demonstrate a genuine passion to make sure your stay is a positive one! We are a young 30yr old couple who was looking for a tranquil stay in the UK and Great Wood didn't disappoint and we wouldn't hesitate in coming back in the future. Matt & Catherine This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

A superb holiday! The lodge and and facilities were first class and the setting was relaxing and and quiet. The fishing was fantastic and our hosts were friendly and caring. I almost don't want to advertise how super this holiday was as I am tempted to keep this little gem in Yorkshire to myself! This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

Wow, what an amazing place! The lodge is immaculate, and the fishing was even better - we caught over 500lb of carp in the week, and the biggest was a 12lb common, loads of mirror and ghost carp. Great food locally, easy access to York, and Don and Helen are a great couple. We have been using Hoseasons for quite a few years now but this is one of the best we've been to, my wife loves watching the birds and she wasn't disappointed here. The write ups and pictures in the brochure do not do this place justice, I can't wait to go back! This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

A kind and friendly family run business, fabulous accommodation and a great location for walks, biking and sight seeing. Highly recommended and five stars from us! This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

A nice, tranquil setting, completely self contained clean accommodation and wild life on the door step made for a relaxing break. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

Very peaceful and relaxing and the accommodation was immaculate! This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

I would highly recommend this park to anyone looking for peace and quiet - very, very good! This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

An idyllic haven of peace and tranquility - the perfect retreat to relax and unwind! The setting of the lodges is absolutely perfect for those seeking an 'away from it all' break. Four eco-lodges on the edge of a lovely lake, surrounded by woodland, with an abundance of wildlife right on the doorstep. The lodges are of a very high standard regarding luxury and comfort, and are extremely well maintained and equipped by the owners, Don and Helen - the most helpful and welcoming of hosts whose attention to detail ensures a wonderful time is had by all. The village of Flaxton, which is approximately a mile and a half away, is 'picture postcard' pretty and has an excellent pub, The Blacksmith's Arms, which serves reasonably priced, delicious food. Many locals seem to dine there so booking in advance is probably advisable. There are lots of places to visit in the area and our only regret is that we were unable to stay longer. The North Yorkshire coast, York and Harrogate are all easily accessible and the beautiful estate of Castle Howard is just a few minutes drive away. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

Excellent accommodation and location, the owner could not have been more friendly or helpful and the fishing was great! This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

Thanks again to Helen and Don for another wonderful week at Great Woods. The accommodation and hospitality were excellent as usual. Wildlife was there in abundance and the fishing was marvellous with both of us catching lots of carp (commons, mirrors and a few ghosties) and even a 2 pound chub! The hens were great fun and right little characters and we still don't know who adopted who! A lovely, peaceful holiday - we will be back. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

A beautiful, peaceful setting overlooking a lake with wildlife all around. Great for unwinding - it was all great and environmentally friendly. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

This is a wonderful place to get away from it all. The lodge is first class and has everything you could possibly need. The location is perfect for getting around, should you wish to that is, and the fishing is very good. What more can we add to the comments already made about the owners Don and Helen? We had a hint of their hospitality before we even arrived, when Don rang us to give us information about what to bring, travel directions and the type of bait needed for fishing. When we arrived it was like visitng old friends, they are indeed a very special couple who want others to enjoy this wonderful place they call home. We cannot wait to return! This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

A second lovely break at Great Wood thanks to Don and Helen. Super lodges, wonderful surroundings and wildlife, plus amusement from the two friendly chickens. The only complaint is that time went so quickly, and leaving was so hard. Next year here we come! This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

What can I say, my wife and I stayed here for the weekend and Wow what an amazing place, couldn't fault it. This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

Fantastic venue for a relaxing break, accommodation very comfortable and staff really helpful, fishing was also great! Would strongly recommend. This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

What a fantastic little gem! I booked this holiday last-minute and was a little wary of the reviews, thinking they sounded too good to be true, but Don and his Great Wood are magical, I think I have found my new favourite place! The lodge itself was immaculate - spotless and with everything you could possibly imagine you might ever need, down to the last rolling pin, scales - even an insect-repellant outdoor candle! It was also really good quality, solid and well-built from scratch by Don and his team, not a 'flat-pack' version - it is seriously first class, five-star 'eco' accommodation. The verandah was lovely, really large with home made wooden flower boxes, but best of all it meant we could sit outside whatever the weather without ever getting wet. We ate dinner with a glass of wine out there every night and saw endless wildlife including woodpeckers, bats, owls, greenfinches, swallows, coal tits, marsh tits, chaffinches, a buzzard and the 'magic squirrel'! The scenery is beautiful - we didn't go off site all week but just took walks around the woods, saw the badger sett and the railway, visited Don's chicken family (and other assorted animals!), went fishing, had barbecues - bliss! And Don is such a character, and an absolute sweetheart, he has plenty of stories to tell! I'm already planning our next visit at Xmas! This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

First class customer service and nothing was too much trouble. Everything was perfect, an absolutely fantastic place if you wish to chill out and see the wildlife in its natural habitat. I will definitley be visiting again and have already recommended it to numerous friends! This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

A fantastic place to stay if you want peace and quiet, and excellent service from the owners they couln't do enough for you. This was our third visit there and we will return. This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

One of the best holidays we have had. Nothing was too much trouble for the owners, they treated us like family. Lovely setting, fishing unbelievable (in a week well over 100 fish caught) Will definitely be going back soon. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

Relaxing peaceful holiday in beautiful surroundings; close proximity to a variety of amenities. Staying beside a lake was so serene! This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

What a fantastic place for a relaxing fishing weekend "away from it all". Don and Helen were incredibly welcoming and went out of their way to make our stay nothing short of brilliant! The fishing really is superb, the lodges warm and comfortable, with everything you could possibly need. We can recommend the local pub for excellent food and another warm welcome! We'll be coming back. This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

This is the perfect get away from society, if what you are looking for is solitude and respite this is the place to come. The accommodation is first rate and the owners where friendly and helpful, we will definitely be going back. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

A lovely peaceful retreat. A great location to use as a base while visiting nearby attractions and towns. Located just outside the village of Flaxton which had a good local pub which also has a restaurant. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

We have just come home from having a wonderful holiday at Great Wood Lodges. As we have been going through Hoseasons for the last 18 years we have been to a lot of lodges up and down the country. We overlooked Great Wood Lodges because of the picture, but can I just say this lodge was like a 5 star hotel - well equipped, spotless, and the owners Don and Helen treated us like one of the family. The fishing was excellent and it was a perfect retreat! This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

We recently had a fortnights holiday here at Great Wood and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. A beautiful setting by the lake, total peace and tranqulity just what we were after. Many thanks must go to Don and Helen for making our stay perfect, a very lovely couple who made us feel right at home. Everything about our holiday was first class and we will recommend Great Wood to all our friends! Many thanks for many happy memories! This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

This was a peaceful holiday and the fishing was great, Don who is the owner is very hospitable and makes you very welcome. This is in the middle of nowhere which was nice for walks and just chilling. Great place, just four cabins. Wild life all day and night. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

Our holiday came round once more and bookings they were made, it was at yorkshire in a lodge, so peaceful, down a lane, When we arrived we loved the views, so quiet and all serene, it made us feel like we were spoilt, just like a king and queen, Fresh eggs and wine awaited us, a very kindly treat, so we sat down in our nice lodge, content and all replete, When Don turned up and greeted us, it really was quite nice, we felt all welcome and relaxed, we slept well all that night, Outside our door, we loved the views, with chickens by the score, with Cocky leading all the girls, he could have handled more, It's lovely here, it really is, we had a real good time, so now you know we will be back for eggs and maybe wine. This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

Peace and quiet, beautiful surroundings away from all the hustle and bustle of the world outside, and beautiful accommodation. This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

We have just spent a week at Great Wood Lodges. The lodge was extremely clean and equipped to a high standard!! The bedding towels etc which were included were clean and smelt lovely and fresh, and toilet rolls, washing up liquid, kitchen towels,were also included, so very much a home from home experience! The gift of tea, coffee, milk, sugar, eggs and wine were very much appreciated! The lodge was central so whether you lazed on the terrace, read, walked, fished, or went to nearby places, (Whitby, York, Scarborough) there was definitely something for everyone!!!! The fishing was fab, and much to my husbands dismay I did outshine him a couple of days!!!! Don himself was the perfect host and nothing was too much trouble! He certainly has created a wonderful place of peace and perfection! A week was definitely not long enough - many thanks! This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

Me and my partner have been twice now and we love it, will go again soon. It is a bit far from everything but we love that. Don who runs the great wood is very friendly and welcoming, there are only 4 lodges but all exactly the same except for the pictures in the lounge. The lodges are set around a big lake, great BBQ for in the summer. Don always gives us some free range eggs from his chickens and also provides milk, tea and coffee which makes you feel at home. In the lodge there is a full kitchen with dishwasher and even a washing machine, the bedrooms are quite big with an en suite and shower you also have another bathroom as well. We will go back next year. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

Had a wonderful and relaxing week at Great Wood Lodges. Very peaceful, excellent fishing and the lodges were finished to a very high standard and comfort. A very warm welcome by the owners - we felt we had known them for years after one day. The best place for meals out is the Blacksmiths Arms in Flaxton. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

We have been on several lodge holidays and this is our 4th visit to Great Wood and it's by far the best. The lodges are well designed, comfortable, well equipped and very clean. The welcome is warm and friendly and the environment is quiet and relaxing with plenty of varied and interesting wildlife. My husband loves the fishing. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

The perfect holiday. Don and Helen could not do enough for us, the lodges were 5 star and had superb facilities - great for a perfect getaway to relax in or to sight see. This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

From the second you arrive at Great Wood Lodges the stresses and strains start to drain away. You cannot help but be won over by the charm of the four eco lodges and their sublime location. With a genuine warm welcome from Don, the holiday was off to a cracking start. The lodge itself was meticulously built and didn't show any of the usual signs of holiday home lettings. It was warm, clean, well decorated and even had a welcome bottle of wine. There was a half dozen fresh free range eggs in the fridge and, if they were not in the fridge, they would still be warm having been laid the morning of your arrival by the on site chickens! The geographical location of Great Wood Lodges is perfect for a base for exploration - it is very close to York, Malton and Pickering, is well within reach of Scarborough, Harrogate and Knaresborough for a day trip, and is a stones throw from the North Yorkshire Moors Railway, which if you purchase the right ticket can take you to Whitby for Fish and Chips on the seafront. If exploration is not your bag, the lodges are ideal for relaxation - there's an abundance of wildlife who, sometimes, are willing to pose for photography, there's fishing on the Great Wood's own lake, or there are miles of surrounding countryside to explore at a pace all your own. Whatever you look for on a break, either short or long, if you can't find it here at Great Wood Lodges, then I would suggest you have expectations that are unachieveable! This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

We have just returned from a week long stay at Great Wood, our second visit after a long weekend at Easter earlier this year, and we were just as impressed with the accommodation, surroundings and welcome and attentiveness of Don and Helen. I have a medical issue which requires me to feed intravenously and my medical supplies are bulky and require refridgeration. Don liased with my healthcare company to arrange and take delivery of my food and an extra fridge on the day of arrival - nothing was too much trouble for him. The lodges are perfectly located for touring Yorkshires lovely coastal towns and stunning moors. We took one day to drive in a hired Caterham sportscar (details in the lodge) to Robin Hood's Bay and Whitby, then drove back inland to Goathland and across the moors down to Helmsley, what a stunning day! If you just want to relax and take the day as it comes, the lodges are perfect - sit on your decked verandah overlooking the lake and surrounding woodland drinking a glass of wine. At night it is so dark and free from light pollution that if star gazing takes your fancy, the whole sky twinkles!! We will be back for a third visit - highly recommended This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Great Wood as a holiday for people who want a quiet, restful break. This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

This is the place for peace and quiet, and lots of wildlife to watch and photograph. The lodges are of a very high standard, and you are made to feel very welcome. To relax and fish is a real treat. We tried the Four Alls pub on the A64 and the Loch Fyne fish restaurant in York which were excellent value. We will definitely be going again next year! This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

A wonderful setting and the lodge was exceptional. We enjoyed our stay we will be back to this wonderful place - thank you! This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

Great Wood Lodges has to be the most peaceful and relaxing place ever! The wildlife is a constant source of entertainment and the standard of the lodge was excellent. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

We stayed at Great Wood Lodges for a week at the beginning of August 2010 and wished that we'd booked for two weeks. The lovely, extremely clean, lodges have every conceivable thing that you could want for a home from home. Helen and Don are excellent hosts and were so attentive to our needs as they wanted us to have a relaxing break from the pressures of work and home. We would recommend this oasis of calm to anyone, and will be looking forward to booking again! This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

Location perfect, log cabin excellent and the equipment miles above expectations. The hosts were generous and helpful - Absolutely marvellous. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

We have just come home from our second weekend break at Great Wood Lodges, and once again have had a lovely weekend away. Very quiet and peaceful and great value for money - we will definitely be returning again! This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

What a lovely place and what kind and friendly owners. The lodge was immaculate with all mod-cons, fishing was superb and the wildlife outstanding. What more could you ask for, apart from being there all year round? Excellent! D&M S, Wakefield, West Yorkshire This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

The is the second year we have visited this park and even better than last time. The park is immaculate, the accommodation is 5*, and the welcome is excellent - what more could you want! Total relaxation with peaceful sourroundings, and an ideal location for exploring the beautiful countryside. We will certainly be returning next year! This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

The accommodation was excellent and scrupulously clean, and the owner made every effort to make us welcome, and phoned us before hand just to ensure that we knew how to get there. We were also advised about local attractions and local shopping. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

We had a wonderful week at Great Wood Lodges, and Don and Helen made us feel very welcome. The fishing was good and very relaxing, the wine and welcome pack was very thoughtful and the eggs were delicious. We hope to go back again! This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

Great Wood is a small place of tranquility, minutes from the centre of York. We relaxed in the cabin with all the mod-cons we wanted, yet there was a huge list of widlife wandering past the veranda - its not often you get four deer stolling past within touching distance when you open the curtains in the morning. If you truly want to jump off the rat race for a sole enriching week or weekend, Great Wood is the place. You'll be wishing you were back there within a week of returning to the daily toil, I did! This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

We arrived stressed out and in need of a much needed break, and we left (reluctantly!) revived and rested. The accommdation is absolutely first class, the setting was idyllic and yes, the quality of the organic eggs are everything people have said about them. We would highly recommend this to anyone lookng for some 'time out' and a guarantee of a chilled and relaxed holiday. If you like to watch the glint of the sunshine reflecting on the lake or hear the soft patter of rain on the top of the water and hear nothing else other than the slurp of you drinking wine then book, but only if you can beat us to it first!!! Thanks to Don also for his master class in fishing and all his tender loving care that was lavished upon us during our stay!! This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

A warm, comfortable and clean, hand built Eco lodge set next to a well stocked Carp pool. Surrounded by woodland filled with wild birds which frequently feed at the feeders in front of the lodge supplied by Don and his wife Helen who made us most welcome. Fresh free range eggs are in constant supply from the free wandering hens. You could spend all day just taking in the peace and tranquility of the place, but not far away is York and the East coast resorts. Castle Howard is just a few miles away and is a must to visit. Beautiful villages are all around with plently of food pubs to choose from, and gentle walking country in the nearby Howardian Hills. A most enjoyable, relaxing and interesting week - thank you! This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

We have just returned from Great Wood. A wonderful lodge, and the super owners (Don and Helen) made us so welcome. The thoughtful eggs ect added to the pleasure of it all, and we must not forget our feathered friends. We miss them and are looking forward to next year - thanks again! This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

Fantastic value for money and a great location, secluded but within easy driving distance of stunning areas and the city of York. This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

Great Wood is an ideal base for visiting York and the North Yorkshire Moors. A wonderful park with fantastically built, decorated and furnished lodges set within the peace and quiet of woodland overlooking the tranquil fishing lake. The greeting and assistance provided by the owners was first class, and remember to take some bread for the friendly ducks! This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

If you enjoy peace and quiet in a beautiful location with extremely helpful hosts then this is the place for you. We have high standards when it comes to cleanliness and the lodges didn't disappoint. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

The lodges are perfect for a relaxing quiet holiday and the fishing is brilliant . This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

What an absolute piece of heaven!! After a somewhat traumatic 2010 we really needed to fully relax and have some peace and quiet in beautiful surroundings. Don, (owner) has certainly developed something that is just that - from REAL fresh eggs on arrival, with milk and coffee. To just sit and watch the many varieties of wild birds coming to feed at the feeders was really special. Rest assured we will be returning, not because of afore-mentioned but also because Don makes you so welcome and his enthusiasm is so infectious. This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

Anyone looking for peace and quiet in beautiful, clean, top quality lodges then look no further than Great Wood, York. My husband and I have enjoyed a wonderful weekend in one of the four lodges available, all of which surround a beautiful lake offering a wonderful spectacle of both flora and fauna. The attention to detail is what makes these lodges so special along with the warm welcome from Don & Helen. Ideally placed for a walk into Strensall to pick up provisions or a trip to the local in Flaxton which provided good food at reasonable prices. If you want to get away from it all this adults only retreat is just the place to do it. There is no doubt we will be returning again soon. This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

We spent valentine's weekend at Great Wood Lodges and had a fantastic time. The accommodation was to a very high standard and the owner's hospitality was outstanding. The lodge was in beautiful surroundings with lots of wildlife to enjoy. As a young couple, looking for a relaxing and affordable short break, we couldn't have asked for more. We'd recommend these lodges to anyone. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

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! This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

This was our 3rd visit to date and we have another planned for later in the year. The lodge is so well equipped in the most peaceful of surroundings, and you could not have a better host than Don, nothing is too much trouble. He even organised a higher seated chair for my father who doesn't walk so well now. Thankyou very much! This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

We can only endorse the reviews others have made. Beautiful lodges in a beautiful setting. Immaculately clean and comfortable. We would certainly recommend Great Wood Eco Lodges to friends and family as a retreat and a place to relax and enjoy nature at its best. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

Thank you Don and Helen for providing such a relaxing haven. Our stay at Great Wood Lodge was more than just a lovely break, it was an experience and we loved it. The lodge really was superb and spotlessly clean with everything we needed. The fishing was excellent. Catching 37 carp ranging from 3/4 lb to 4 lbs (plus 3 tench and many rudd) on a short break in October was a joy. We hope to be back very soon. Chris and Meryl from Derby. This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

We have just spent a week at Great Wood Lodges, and what a fantastic place to stay. The owners are great, they will do anything they can to make your holiday unforgettable. We have stayed at numerous lodges over the years and can honestly say this is by far the best. The accommodation is 5* - clean, tidy, immaculate, well appointed and beautifully maintained. The park is a beautiful combination of natural woodland and lakes, in amongst tranquil farmland. If you are looking for a peaceful retreat away from the hustle and bustle of daily life, you could not want more. This, combined with the excellent fishing and abundant wildlife makes for the perfect break. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.

We had a lovely week staying here. The lodge was perfect and presented to a very high standard - a real peaceful getaway teeming with birdlife and squirrels. Plenty to do in the area, and food in local pub was very reasonable and of a high standard.(yummy puddings). Don and Helen were the perfect hosts and could not do enough for us. We hope to visit again real soon - many thanks for a great week! This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

Overall a very enjoyable four day break and we will be back for our third visit next year". This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

A great holiday! A peaceful and quiet location, great for walking, fishing, or just sitting watchng the birds.

This had a beautiful setting, not too many lodges and really helpful staff, who could not do enough for you, a really, really relaxing place to go. York is only 10 mins in the car, if, like us, you prefer retail therapy, this place is so handy for everything. We would recommend this place to anyone who likes peace and quiet but near the city as well. This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

Total tranquility, peace and quiet which is exactly as we wanted. Praise indeed for doing exactly what you said on the website - if Carling did holidays they would do Hoseasons!! This reviewer rated the park as 5 out of 5.

This was the cleanest and best maintained cabin we have ever stayed in, it exceeded our expectations, and Don and Helen are excellent hosts. This reviewer rated the park as 4 out of 5.
