“The lodge was lovely and the hosts were very helpful.”

The Wi-Fi was very slow, which wasn't a big factor, but just didn't work well with the firestick. Apart from that, we had everything we needed.

“A lovely peaceful lodge, spacious and well equipped.”

Need some replacements - sofa was very worn and bed was uncomfortable. Cleanliness was overall good, just some dusting of the internal doors would have given top marks. We are looking forward to booking again, we loved the park and the area.

“We loved our stay, will definitely be back!”

Mr Baybutt September 2020

“Brilliant lodges, hot tub was amazing in the evening.”

If you want a relaxing time away doing nothing this is for you. Not much in the way of attractions open locally but think this may be due to covid. Could do with bread cutting knife in the lodge and maybe update the tv as the one we had could only get 1 radio station (80s) which suited us but wouldn't suit others. Will be back -- Thank you Paul and Alison the site managers( sorry if we have got names wrong) they were both so friendly and welcoming.

Mrs Pearce August 2020

“We arrived to an immaculate well equipped lodge.”

Kiplin Lodges are in a very peaceful location, leaflets were provided letting us know of local places to visit. Our hot tub was cleaned daily . The site manager lived on site which meant if we needed her for anything she was there at all times. We will definitely stay there again.

- Mrs Pearce, August 2020
Ms Auty August 2020

“Lovely lodge, excellent site.”

We had a great base for some North Yorkshire adventures where we could also relax and switch off in comfort. As neighbours with the wonderful Kiplin Hall, it's well worth a visit. Food at the Lakeside cafe was great and there are so many restaurants and pubs within a 15 min drive it was hard to choose! I would definitely recommend and may well return myself.

“Lovely lodge and nice quiet site, everything was fantastic except the mattress ...”

Lovely lodge and nice quiet site, everything was fantastic except the mattress on the king size bed was so so uncomfortable you could feel every spring, my husband and I hardly slept all weekend and had back ache every morning

Miss Rowan February 2020

“Comfortable lodge.”

Centrally heated for our cold February stay. Lovely and clean. Hot tub checked and re-filled every morning. Manager and his wife friendly and helpful. Great location for driving to local attractions such as Aysgarth Falls.

Miss Scandling December 2019

“The lodge was just absolutely perfect, lovely and clean and so spacious.”

The hosts went above and beyond and made sure our stay was perfect. As a family of 6 having our Christmas in the lodge with the ability to cook a full Christmas dinner far exceeded our expectations! We have all said it’s been one of our best christmas. Thank you sooooo much

- Miss Scandling, December 2019
Mr Harding October 2019

“Myself and my family enjoyed our stay very much.”

The lodge was clean and tidy and had everything we needed. The hot tub outside was excellent and was private enough to feel comfortable. The location of the site was ideal, close enough to have a day trip to York one day and Whitby another day.

- Mr Harding, October 2019

We really had a lovely relaxing break, the cabin was very clean & had a feeling of home from home, every thing was there from the kitchen to the much enjoyable hot tub, our dog loved it also, we have booked again but this time we're going to South Wales,

- Mr Maundrill, October 2019
Mrs Byrne July 2019

“The cabin itself looks lovely and the hot tub was nice and clean.”

The dirty plate and empty packets found under the bed were a bit of a disappointment. It was also a bit disappointing that there was no tea or coffee at the property as I have normally found at all other establishments. Other guests had also been left wine and nibbles whereas we hadn't. We asked for a cot and high chair a few days before our arrival however they wernt there. This was quickly rectified after another phone call. No electricity or water on our last night after a thunderstorm, we left early the next morning to come home. All in all it was ok, I dont think we would return.

- Mrs Byrne, July 2019
Mrs Hewitt July 2019

“The lodge was well equipped for self catering.”

The beds were comfortable. Wardrobe space was fantastic. It was clean, with plenty of space in the living area. The hot tub was a bonus, and the kids loved it. The large outside veranda had a gate which was ideal for keeping the dog in. Also the site was lovely and quiet which is just how we like it. Would recommend to anyone wanting a lovely peaceful place that is in reach of places to visit. Would definitely go back again.

- Mrs Hewitt, July 2019
Mrs Coles June 2019

“Lovely lodge and very clean.”

Often expect a little bit rundown when looking for dog friendly accommodation but this was not the case. Location was handy, not far to get onto main roads/shops/days out if wanted. Quiet site, think we booked a good week as not in school holidays. Only issue was communication with site owners. Took an hour to answer phone and another hour to get our lodge key to us! Caused the stress levels to go up as we couldn't leave the lodge that was left unlocked. No fun for a hungry 2 year old and 35week pregnant lady. No apologies or comments when key finally arrived! Lucky place was nice and no other problems so we could enjoy our relaxing break before baby number 2 arrives.

- Mrs Coles, June 2019
Mr Hurrell May 2019

“Lovely quiet place to stay , staff on site are very attentive and friendly .”

We picked a poor week weather wise but still enjoyed our stay . Would highly recommend Kiplin park as a destination and we would love to go back.

- Mr Hurrell, May 2019
Mr Davison May 2019

“The owners of these facilities are fantastic.”

Nothing is too much hassle to them. Facilities really clean and spacious. Such a peaceful environment which lead to a really relaxing week. Hot tub was fantastic and the wildlife is amazing. We will be booking again to come back for some more rest and relaxation

- Mr Davison, May 2019
Mr Milburn May 2019

“Lovely clean and comfortable lodge with ex hot tub,attentive staff couldnt do enough for you with MICK the maintainence guy a real diamond coming out after hrs in pouring rain to fix a small prob for us.”

.Although we are in our 70s with no transport we still got abt with local bus 2 mins down the lane to RICHMOND and NORTHALLERTON.But to be honest if the suns shining its a real sun trap and relaxing in the tub is fantastic.Def be back again sometime really enjoyed it.

- Mr Mayled, January 2019
Mrs Marples December 2018

“Very good hot tub serviced very well holiday great , one negative very poor lighting outside when dark almost non existant .”

- Mrs Marples, December 2018
Mrs Nicklin January 2018

“Very friendly welcome and helpful owners.”

A good lodge in a secluded location and excellent value for money, especially with the private hot tub. If you want to stargaze and listen to the owls at night then this is the place for you (if being online and intouch is important then maybe not - there is no wifi and mobile coverage is limited).

- Mrs Nicklin, January 2018
Mrs Mawer December 2017

“Could be cleaner.”

Water in hot tub seemed a bit cloudy.

- Mrs Mawer, December 2017
Miss Iannotta November 2017

“Lovely lodge, very comfortable!”

Hot tub lovely to warm the bones after a long walk. Walks to do locally by foot, or lovely villages and towns nearby to visit by car. Definitely recommend. Barry the onsite manager was lovely and very helpful! :)

- Miss Iannotta, November 2017
Mrs Cole September 2017

“The Hosts Mr and Mrs Barker were extremely helpful and friendly.”

Nothing was too much trouble for them. We will definitely recommend this park to friends. The jacuzzi was fantastic after a day sightseeing.

- Mrs Crowley, September 2016
Mrs Naylor October 2015

“Excellent three generation holiday.”

Location is very good and children could safely play outside as we could see them from the Lodge. It was a warm Lodge and beds were very comfortable.

- Mrs Naylor, October 2015
Miss Packer February 2015

“This park was absolutely brilliant.”

A great base to explore the Yorkshire heritage, villages and explore on country walks. Also available nearby were theme parks and more energetic places to visit. A fantastic place to relax and unwind at the end of a day, especially in the hot tub.

- Miss Packer, February 2015

- Miss Partington, September 2014
Mr Spiers July 2014

“A lovely relaxing area, lodge and fantastic hot tub.”

In a very quiet site, the host is an absolute gentleman. We would recommend to anyone who "likes to get away from it all".

About the location

KIPLIN

Scorton 2.25 miles; Richmond 8 miles; Northallerton 8 miles.

Kiplin is a small hamlet in North Yorkshire, just 2.25 miles from Scorton where you can find a convenience store and pubs and 8 miles from Richmond where cobbled streets and narrow alleys or 'wynds' enshrine over nine centuries of busy history and unique character. Within the town, narrow streets and alleys radiate from the cobbled Market Place (which has a weekly market and monthly farmers’ market) and there are numerous shops, pubs and restaurants to enjoy. West of Richmond is All Creatures Great and Small Country, plus the county town of Northallerton is also close by and boasts market days on Wednesdays and Saturdays, when both sides of the High Street are home to stalls selling a wide range of goods and produce, and on the fourth Wednesday of the month the market is joined by a farmers' market. This is a wonderful holiday area, with so much to see and do.
