"The chalet was clean and basic inside but the outside was very dirty and had not been cleaned in a long time, the patio needed a good power wash as it was full of bird poo as was the chairs and table."
we cleaned 2 chairs to sit outside.
Thank you for your review, our management company wipe down exterior chairs/tables etc every week without fail but understandably as we are in the woodland area we are there is a lot of wildlife incl peacocks who wander around the park every day - apologies for any mess they left.
We hope you enjoyed seeing them strut around, did you see the baby peacocks that are about now ? Property Owner

The bedrooms are a bit tiny but the rest of the rooms had good space, would return as the location us lovely add a very short drive to the beach.

"The lodge and it's setting couldn't be better but sofas need upgrading both very uncomfortable, also toilet needs fixing to floor properly, rocked about a bit LOL, also found it inconvenient that the freezer was situated in a part of the lodge where we had to keep going outside to fetch food."
But apart from these few niggles we had a good stay. Also the shower in wet room was brilliant. Would recommend this lodge and only two minutes by car to the seaside town of Saltburn.

Not good for people of our age. I did leave a note to say the light bulb in the cooker hood needed changing, it was very dark when cooking in that corner.

"Sette needs replacing as very uncomfortable."
otherwise ok
As we have been before we know that main Rushpool Hall facilities are NOT available to lodge occupants and you are told so in no uncertain manner
Perhaps you should add a note to the description so that any new visitors are aware.
booked for 2020 already so plusses outweigh negatives!

Still not a 10minute Walk into town as advertised but the wi fi is a lot better than last year
Perfect base for exploring the surrounding area we visited Saltburn, Whitby, Sandsend and Goathland,plenty of dog friendly pubs , ample parking and the dog loved walking around the woods
Stayed in the same lodge last year and will probably come back as it makes a nice early break

"Primrose Lodge & all the others are set in a beautiful location tucked away from the main road,with everything you could need for that Staycation."
..It was lovely to see all the wildlife outside your door roaming free too.The only comment I would make is that it is longer than a ten minute walk to get to Saltburn beach even when venturing through the grounds itself.If it was a family with a pushchair wanting to walk, it would take around 30 minutes via the road.

"Arrived to find painter still painting exterior of lodge, fridge door broke and not declared by the previous tennant which caused a delay in the repair as it was the cleaner that found it broke, although the handyman did fix it within the first hour of our arrival
Mugs very badly tea stained we had to bleach them before use
Sykes did say the property was 10 mins to the beach and amenities, it is less by car but if you want to walk to the beach it takes about 45 mins."
Rushpool Hall is an exclusive venue for weddings etc and is only open to lodge residents during these events you cannot gain access for food and drink at any other times
Staff were nice and friendly,grounds were well maintained, nice quiet location easy access to the woods for walking the dog nice walk to the town centre and beach through the woods

Everything you need, good heating, lovely bathroom and kitchen. Everything you need. If you are there for a week then there is also the extra utility room with washing machine, hangin clothes drier and large freezer
Plus the beautiful tranquil grounds (apart from the very vocal peacocks - who at this time of year are strutting their stuff with full displays of their tail feathers in the hopes of attracting a mate!]
