Victoria
We had a lovely week staying in this cottage in Yorkshire. As a family with teenage children we were spoilt for choice with activities to do in the area, North Yorkshire Water Park was a real hit. The cottage was well equipped with everything you would need for a pleasant stay, my only minor complaint would be that it didnt have a dishwasher. Lots Read moreof supermarkets nearby and nice places to eat. Hide
Chris
Lovely home and great facilities. So close to flamingo land and a fair distance to several beaches. Had a great family holiday
Lee
Just returned home from a family stay, was perfect for all 3 generations. Great location, clean and tidy and very comfortable. Had two minor issues on arrival ( unable to connect to wifi and could not locate the freezer) these were both resolved with 1 very quick and simple phone call, key holders were polite and very helpful in resolving both - ig nore comments on other posts that there is no freezer, there is, its in the 'shed' outside. Overall a great experience
Brian
Good size plenty of room for our party of seven. Comfortable lounge area. Comfortable beds. Slept well. Good sized kitchen although only a small fridge . There is additional small fridge and freezer outside but fridge rusty on outside although clean within and freezer needing defrosted and cleared out. Good outdoor space for children to play. There is a bus service but would recommend location more suitable for car Brian and family
Graeme

Paul
The house was very clean and well decorated. Its well laid out in a nice quiet location. An information pack would be good. There was nothing to wash up with usually a sponge or something is there and no dishwasher or freezer either. Amazing TV to settle down on an evening and the house was warm and cosy.
Helen
Great cottage in a lovely location. Great for visiting Pickering, Malton and Dalby Forest. Pickering is just 2 and 1/2 miles away. The house is well equipped and very clean. When we arrived the hot tub was ready. The house is fantastic inside, very clean with a spacious lounge, dinning area. We had a great weekend in the house.
Diana
The house was fabulous, more than enough space for 8 ,hot tub, garden and tranquility, plenty of kitchen utensils and spacious rooms

Flamingo Land - YO60 7EW
about 0 Miles
Situated in Malton in North Yorkshire this has to be one of our favourite family days out.  It's a theme park and zoo all in one stretching over a massive 400 acres. With thrilling rides for the very daring like Cliff Hanger, Corkscrew and Kumali, there are also more gentle rides for the little ones such as Frog Hopper and Helitoys.  Family fun attractions include the 4D cinema, the lost river ride and the Little Monsters Den of Mischief. Check out their website for seasonal events which take place throughout the year and you can also gain more information about the zoo.  Flamingo Land is a resort as well as a theme park so you can also book accommodation there.
Castle Howard - YO60 7DA
about 6 Miles
Castle Howard is one of the regions most beautiful and historic landmarks and is located in 1,000 acres of parkland with breathtaking gardens to explore. As well as exploring the castle visitors can enjoy attractios including the unique Land Train - the best way to see the entire park. There is also a large lake offering boat trips during the summer months. In high season the site is very popular with families and offers organised activities for children including tours, talks, crafting and animal encounters. The site also has a Nature Trail which is fun for the whole family and an Adventure Playground where children can run off some energy.
Yorkshire Lavender - YO60 6PB

The 60 acre site is set in an area of outstanding natural beauty and is an excellent choice for a day trip. The onsite shops sells Lavender products such as bath and body treats, skincare, medicine and herbal remedies.
Betton Farm Visitor Centre - TF9 3PS
about 14 Miles
Betton Farm Visitor Centre is the ideal attraction close to the North Yorkshire coastal town of Scarborough. This animal farm has all the cute farm animals you would expect to see and will appeal to younger children especially.  A great place to both play and learn we think the Betton Farm Visitor centre is great value for money.  Check out their website for the latest opening times and admission costs.  Some of the highlights of the day might include meeting Sofie the Shetland Pony and Henry the goat, as well as the pot bellied pigs called Porky and Hammy. 
The Grainary Wildlife Farm - YO25 3HS
about 15 Miles
Located in Harwood Dale Village, North Yorkshire we think this attraction makes a superb family day out and couples will also enjoy the nature walks in the area.  There are 6 nature walks in total surrounding the farm so walkers and lovers of the outdoors will be in their element. Some of our favourite walks include the Spring Flowers, Pond and Village walk which takes around 35 minutes, and the Meadow and Trees walk which takes one hour.
Scarborough Sea Life and Marine Sanctuary - YO12 6RP
about 17 Miles
If you are enjoying a lodge break in the Yorkshire Moors and Coast then a day trip to the Scarborough Sea Life and Marine Sanctuary highly recommended. This centre is one of the regions most popular attractions and is educational as well as fun. Visitors will enjoy a journey beneath the waves, meeting many strange, beautiful and fascinating creatures of the deep. As well as mighty sharks and beautiful rays guests can get up close to some more common creatures including star fish and can also meet the otters, seals and penguins at feeding time. The site also has children's play area and picnic tables as well as a restaurant and souvenir shop. Family tickets cost £46.80 but the Tourist Information Centres in Scarborough, Whitby or Filey often offer fantastic discounts.
Sea Life Marine Sanctuary - YO12 6RP
about 17 Miles
Located in the Scalby Mills area of Scarborough this makes a fun family day out for those who are interested in marine life. The fantastic ocean tank is well worth seeing - it's been transformed into a Turtle Reef and you can see an amazing array of colourful reef fish and coral. You may also catch a glimpse of the tropical sharks and turtles. Offering good value for money this is a day out with a difference and an all weather attraction.
Peasholm Park - YO12 6QQ
about 17 Miles
This attraction is ideal for sunny days as the beautiful park is ideal for wandering out and taking in the scenery.  You can hire boats including rowing boats and canoes to enjoy the views from the water.  The pedalos with the dragon heads are always a popular choice too. Look out for special events including the Battle of Peasholm Park Naval Battle which has been described as a "must see".  You can also take a ride on the North Bay Railway which will delight children.

If you are enjoying a lodge holiday in Yorkshire then a visit to York Maze is a must! This summertime attraction is now one of the most popular in the region offering fun for the whole family. The maze has been improved this year and is now bigger and better than ever before. Carved from an amazing 1.5 million growing maize plants it is thought to be the largest maze in the world!
