"Garthgate Lodge is an exceptional place to stay."
Sarah, the owner, has thought of everything.
As an example, Sarah caters for your dog better than a number of places cater for the fee paying humans. There's dog treats, poo bags, dog bed, bowls, etc.
As for the Lodge itself, it is equipped to a very high standard, I would say better than most peoples homes. The layout is perfect, the rooms are a great size, the walk-in shower is brilliant and big enough for two (only for water saving reasons of course :) ). The hot tub is a god send and being undercover, means regardless of the weather, it can be enjoyed all year round. The garden is dog friendly (there is a barrier which goes across the Lodge entrance to prevent your dog from escaping) and a perfect sun trap.
The welcome basket and food provided was absolutely a lovely, tasteful touch. Sarah as an owner, lives on an adjacent property and communication with her was spot on. Having spoken to Sarah on a couple of occasions, she is a lovely person, enjoys catering for guests in the Lodge and really does make people feel welcome. Her suggestion of a nearby beach for our dog was impeccable, so much nicer than Whitby, both for our dog and ourselves. A nicer host you could not find!
The best compliment I can give is that we will be coming back here in the near future, to explore Yorkshire a bit more and to enjoy the Lodge again.
Would I recommend Garthgate Lodge to others? I would but don't want to as it is a gem I'd rather keep to myself.
Thank you so much for your kind review, when guests take the time to complete an on line review it means so much. So glad that you enjoyed the near by beach it is our favourite. We really look forward to welcoming you back again in the near future, kind regards Sarah Whitfield

"Absolutely Amazing property, everything from appliances to decor done to the highest standard the owners have literally thought of everything, we could not think of a single thing that was not in the lodge."
The hot tub was checked every day and was a nice warm place to relax after a days sightseeing on several miserable cold days. Nice and secure yard for our dog too. We will definitely return, it is a great base and in within easy walking distance of three pubs and a fish shop.

"Wow amazing place to stay."
Best welcome pack we have had in a cottage. Everything you could ever need is catered for! Spotlessly clean! Bed is super comfortable ( a bit small for us though as we have a super king at home!) no complaints though as it was very comfortable. Loved the furnishings. Owner extremely helpful and nothing was a bother. Even supplied extra coffee pods for me to try (fellow Nespresso lover!

"Wow, what a find!"
We had such a lovely stay, with everything you would ever need for a relaxing getaway. The attention to detail really makes this place special, including the lovely welcome pack with local produce and doggy treats. The hot tub was perfect and really made our stay. The cottage is within walking distance (about 20 minutes) to two local villages, we recommend the fish and chip shop in Rillington and the Ham and Cheese Pub (dog friendly) in Scagglethorpe - the food at the pub was amazing and had a homely atmosphere. An amazing few days in the cottage, including a trip to nearby Malton. 10/10, we will be back!!! Thank you so much for having us and the warm welcome.

"We stayed at Garthgate Holiday Lodge for 4 nights between 17th July and 21st July 2023."
When we arrived, the lodge was very well presented and was lovely and clean. What you see in the photo’s is exactly how it is, beautifully decorated throughout.
The kitchen is well stocked with all the amenities you can think of, plus more!
The bed is amazingly comfortable, giving us 4 nights of great sleep.
The bathroom is luxurious including large walk-in raindrop shower.
The hot tub was immaculately clean and under cover via a gazebo. We found the temperature to be perfect.
Sarah is a very welcoming host and was happy to answer any questions we had. There were so many little touches that made the world of difference, including simple written instructions for appliances placed around the lodge. The jar of hygiene amenities in the bathroom in case you forget anything. Torches in the bedside drawers in case of a power cut during the night (Not that we had a power cut during our stay). Even the high spec free Wi-Fi and Netflix subscription! They really had thought of everything from a guesses perspective and got it covered.
We have stayed at similar lodges before and found Garthgate to be superior to them all. We would have no hesitation recommending Garthgate Lodge and will be looking to make a return visit soon.

Full of the comforts of home. We would have no hesitation to recommend this cottage we had a lovely holiday here and will definitely be making return visits in the future. One thing we would add is that the photos on Sykes website do not do this cottage full justice. The outside patio area is lovely and the hot tub just adds to the overall experience. Excellent holiday.
