  • "Our second stay at Bluebell lodge, and again was so relaxing."

    Lovely accomodation and great surroundings. Easy access to lots of local amenities. We are going again in April 2024.

  • "We arrived in dark having travelled through storm babet."

    We found rushpool hall, but couldn't find the cabins. We called at hotel reception who didn't know there were cabins. After driving around the grounds for an hour, we called at the private house who helped us. But then which cabin. We had to get out and check each cabin until we found bluebell as no cabins had clear or light up signs. In fact the name plates were on the side of the cabins not the front. Also we were given no telephone number and felt abandoned. The owners need to have a sign erected on the road to the cabins. When we visited you could not see a road as it was covered in leaves. Also put clear name plates on the front of the cabins and have them light up. Also visitors should be provided with a plan of the grounds and the cabins so they can be located easily. This all happened in pouring rain.

    That must of been a horrible drive in the storm quite a few of our guests postponed the drive for that reason . The key information letter sent to you via Sykes details exactly where the Lodges are. Each lodge has a floodlight which lights up as you pull on to the drive area. Sykes could have been contacted or use the app which they now provide guests/owners with so you can communicate easily . We will however liaise with Sykes to see if there are any improvements they wouldlike us to make for their guests. All our direct guests are informed in the Welcome Pack we send out prior to arrival not to go to the Hotel as you explained they dont know much about any part of our Lodge park or woods even though they drive past it all every shift Property Owner

    Would have been a great help to have a grab rail by the door to make the property more accessible.

    Thank you for your feedback , we are sorry our housekeeping staff missed the sock we have spoken to them to ensure they double check everything. We trust you enjoyed your stay in this wonderful part of the country and look forward to hopefully seeing you again sometime. Property Owner

  • "Bluebell Lodge has everything you need for a lovely stay."

    It's clean and well equipped. The environment is gorgeous with lovely walks by the river and through the woods. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Saltburn is a lovely seaside town. (Don't publish this - the photos of the lodge show towels on the beds but in the list of what is included ie linen, towels are not on the list so we took our own but needn't have done.)

  • "Great location, nice and quiet."

    Might be nice to have an option for the second bedroom to have twin beds. The holiday home really needed to be cleaned more thoroughly. Dust and cobwebs could easily have been dealt with. Rambling peacocks added a certain quaintness.

    The man opposite feeds them so they are present all day /night can disturb your sleep as on the roof so early wake up at 5am. Otherwise very pleasant stay.

  • "Lovely situation and very clean and comfortable."

    Welcome hamper was a lovely surprise. Grounds perfect for walking our little dog and visiting peacocks provided much amusement. Lots of wildlife including, squirrels, rabbits, ducks and even a fox. Great to sit on our terrace, which caught the sun all day, and watch the animals. Only 5 mins to Aldi and Asda. We took cushions and rugs/blankets as Covid meant not provided. Marske is a lovely village with a great beach only 5 mins drive away. Although there is a lovely bathroom there are no bars in the walk in shower so my disabled husband could not use it.

  • "Been to these cabins a few times ."

    We love the area and the grounds surrounding the lodges are beautiful. The cabin was very clean and everything was really well organised and we didnt have a problem. A welcome pack was waiting for us on arrival. If I had one criticism it would be that the sofas in the lounge are not back friendly and I cant seem to get comfy.

    The peace and tranquility was so refreshing morning ad evening walks around the grounds and through the woods enhanced everything. The lodge was clean and comfortable no complaints however the bedding seemed a little old but no worries just an observation. A perfect little break enhanced by a proms evening held in the hall. It was lovely to see all the young students celebrating with no noise or fuss it seemed a well organised event. Our first visit to both the lodge and Saltburn we weren’t disappointed and I know we’ll be back

    Good accommodation and well kitted out. A bottle of locally produced Skinningrove Wine was a welcome touch. The only things that needed attention were a fridge in dire need of defrosting and provision of a recycling bin alongside the rubbish bin. I would certainly stay here again.

  • "We had a wonderful weekend break in Bluebell Lodge."

    It was warm, cosy and well appointed. The grounds were spectacular with a wide variety of wildlife to watch. The only thing I would like to see updated on your site is that you cannot walk into Saltburn-By-The-Sea or to a pub/shop. I love walking and enjoy exploring on foot but it was impossible to cross the beck and the roads were fast with no footpaths.

    Cracked dishes. Sharp knives NOT sharp - unable to cut anything with them. The outside appearance of the cabin was dirty and full of cobwebs, leaves, dirt. The back door once opened was encased with what looked like years of dirt and grime. Welcome bottle of wine, dog treats and small amount of coffee/tea sachets was a nice touch.

  • "The location and property were lovely."

    Unfortunately on our arrival we could smell a 'drain' like smell in both the utility room and second bedroom. The morning after (due to the increasing smell , children complaining of it etc) we reported this to Rushpool hall, the receptionist informed us that there had been problems with this lodge before (why was it not rectified before our arrival?) Their maintenance man ' Rob' was very prompt and tried hard to sort the problem and sent follow up texts to check how things were. I also reported it to yourselves (Sykes) I was told I would receive a call back which we did, to inform us you couldn't contact the owner. We received no more calls from Sykes which was disappointing. The smell subsided but remained throughout our stay, we were offered a replacement chalet of a much lower standard by the staff at Rushpool. We also woke to no heating/ hot water part way through our stay, Rob was again prompt to sort this problem. We were lucky to have family staying in Snowdrop so were able to eat there to elevate having to sit in the smell. We'd appreciate a prompt response and some reasonable compensation. Kind regards Mark & Rachel Ross
