The stay was great, everything was as published. It is quiet and secuded...so if you arrive after dark in fog like we did, have a flashlight/torch handy to help make your way from the parking area to the house. We ate at the nearby pub and had a nice meal. The host was super responsive to our communication via VRBO. It was located about 15 minute drive to York.

Lovely secluded spot
This property is ideal for people who want to find a peaceful place to stay. The accommodation is spacious and very clean and tidy. We couldn't fault it and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It is also a great place to stay for using the Park & Ride to go into York, going to the beautiful local beaches of Staithes, Robin Hood's Bay and Filey and also visiting the Yorkshire Moors.

Excellent lodge.. highly recommend
Very nice location as a lot of attractions are within an hour drive. Although in a residential area, but the lodge is very secluded and only living creatures we could see were birds and rabits.. Richard was very quick in responding to all of our queries and was very helpful. Bridget spent long time in cleaning And sanitising the lodge to keep it ready for us. Have to mention that the chocolate cake was amazing welcome treat. Our autistic son loved the entire stay and would definitely plan another visit as York has much more to discover..!!

The property is very clean and well equipped. It is in a very quiet and secluded location and ideal for anyone wanting to use as a base for day trips around North Yorkshire. The veranda is lovely and it was entertaining watching the rabbits and squirrels.

A Hidden Gem
Orchard Lodge is incredible value for money. It offers that 'cabin in the woods' experience of being away from the world without having to travel miles into the wilderness! The photos are good but they don't do the cabin justice. The areas around the cabin have much more character and charm, and are more 'weathered in' than they appear in the photos. The veranda is a real highlight, the morning views are stunning and even in the heavy rain we were able to sit outside and enjoy the sound. If you like wildlife, you'll enjoy visits from the squirrels and rabbits around the area, as well as a pheasant if you're lucky. All facilities inside the cabin were more than adequate; decent oven, cooker etc., And the shower had good pressure and temperature control. We will definitely be returning in the future.

Lovely quite location
The log cabin was fully equipped with everything you needed, lovely quite location and yet very convenient for exploring York. We only stayed a couple of nights but a lovely location to stay much longer and visit more places.
