  • "Fisherman's Lodge was perfect for our needs."

    It is beautifully furnished and has all the equipment one could wish for. The en-suite bedrooms were a particular bonus. Claire was very helpful indeed and the welcome basket was a much-appreciated touch.

  • "Our holiday at Fisherman's Lodge was really excellent in all ways, thank you very much."

    The owner of the property, Claire, was lovely and was so incredibly helpful and caring. She provided us with a lovely and welcome box of goodies upon arrival and even some treats for our doggy, Esther; thank you so much Claire. The property was very clean and tidy throughout with a bathroom or en-suite for each of the three bedrooms, which was really useful. The enclosed garden area with the large table and chairs was great and so safe for our dog; we sat out there to eat and drink a few times as the weather was so sunny and good. The open lounge area with beautiful, well equipped kitchen was so impressive and we enjoyed spending the mornings and evenings in there very much. There is ample car parking space on a large drive for several cars at this property. We would highly recommend eating out at the excellent Half Moon pub just over the road from Fisherman's Lodge, the food is excellent, really tasty. We ate there twice and had one takeaway from the pub and ate this in the garden at the property - lovely! Claire and Marcus had provided everything we needed at the Lodge and more. We would highly recommend staying here for your holiday. There are so many places to visit nearby, which we did, such as beautiful Hornsea, York, Bridlington, Pocklington and Scarborough to name a few. We loved Hornsea, which was such a pretty seaside town and all the shops, cafes and attractions available in York. Thank you so much Claire and the team for such an excellent stay in your lovely property at Fisherman's Lodge. We would highly recommend staying here to others, and so dog friendly too! Very best wishes, Julia, David, Kate and Jim Priestley, and Esty our dog. xxxxx

    Dear Julia Thankyou so much for the fantastic review, we are delighted you had such a lovely time with us in Newton Upon Derwent! Kindest regards Claire & Marcus x Property Owner

  • "We have holidayed around the UK for many years and Fishermans is definitely one of the best Cottages we have stayed in."

    The property is beautifuly decorated and finished to a very high standard throughout. Everything from the quality of the items (and rather nice bottle of Prosecco) included in the generous welcome hamper, to the extra plush carpets in the bedrooms and the luxury Egyptian cotton sheets were all a lovely step up from the normal holiday rental. With every bedroom having its own ensuite there were no arguments between our teenage children as to who got which room so all-in-all the whole family really enjoyed our stay. We also took advantage of the Discount Voucher included in the hamper and enjoyed a lovely relaxed Sunday Lunch at the Half Moon Inn, just across the road. Great food and great service in a very welcoming county inn. Fingers crossed we will get to return to both in the future.

  • "My husband and I stayed at Fishermans Lodge with my elderly father and our dog Casey, we were blown away by the accommodation, Claire the owner keeps the house spotless, and it smelt lovely too."

    The beds were comfortable and so large that I had to send out a search party in order to find my husband! All the facilities needed were on hand and our dog Casey loved the garden and her bed. The pub just across the road The Half Moon was dog friendly and served lovely food. All in all a very enjoyable experience which I would highly recommend. Thank you Claire.

    Then explained things and warned about road works might course delays and offered an alternative way in to the village. Local pub was good friendly locals. The cottage was perfect for us with a dog as it had a fenced garden with great views. It had to good showers and a bath with shower so could be accessed by young and old. Downstairs toilet was great feature not all cottages have bed this in the past. Great parking with in out driveway. Thanks for lovely week

    Excellent communication with the owner, thank you Claire! The Half Moon (literally opposite the cottage) was very good value for money, the staff and locals were very welcoming and the food was top quality.

  • "We had an absolutely dreamy stay at Fisherman’s Lodge."

    From the very warm welcome (with fabulous basket of goodies) to a smooth check out, everything was perfect. The house is wonderfully appointed, and the Aga was a complete bonus during a snowy Yorkshire holiday. Highly recommend the pub, which is just over the road. Beautiful food and the steak night is not to be missed. 20 mins from York, we used the Park and Ride once and we parked in town another time. There is a lovely circular loop walk around the village itself. There is a corner shop I’m the next village over. Bigger shops can be found in Pocklington.

    Thank you for the fantastic review, cannot quite believe we even managed to provide snow!! Property Owner

  • "Fisherman's Lodge is a lovely, warm, comfortable and well-equipped holiday home."

    Claire, the owner, is very helpful and friendly. The Half Moon Inn (also owned by Claire) is only 2 minutes walk away. It was surprisingly busy but well-staffed and the food was very tasty. The house is in a good location for getting to York. We enjoyed visiting the Yorkshire Air Museum (about 5 minutes drive away) and Burnby Hall Gardens and Museum in Pocklington (about 10 minutes drive away). We would definitely stay there again.
