Quiet, private place close to York. About an hour to the moors. It suited us well It was a delightful place. You go through a park of small homes to get there but it's very quiet. Easy parking and check in and check out. We used the washer/dryer all in one and it worked well Our hosts left us some milk and a very nice chocolate cake. Had a spacious living room/dining room and a very nice porch. The only thing we didn't catch is that it's a one shower place. There's two full bathrooms but one has a bathtub without a shower.Overall , it was wonderful and all four of us would love to stay there again.

As first time visitors to the UK from the U.S., the Orchard Lodge was possibly the best accomodations we've ever experienced here or abroad! It met all our expectations and more! It was perfect for visiting York, Thirsk, & Yorkshire Dales. Our host was most hospitable, kind, thoughtful, & a wealth of knowledge on local history, sights, restaurants/pubs, & local services. Orchard Lodge has our highest reccommedation. It's not just a wonderful place to stay, it is an English village experience of a lifetime!

Americans in York

The stay was great, everything was as published. It is quiet and secuded...so if you arrive after dark in fog like we did, have a flashlight/torch handy to help make your way from the parking area to the house. We ate at the nearby pub and had a nice meal. The host was super responsive to our communication via VRBO. It was located about 15 minute drive to York.

Lovely secluded spot

This property is ideal for people who want to find a peaceful place to stay. The accommodation is spacious and very clean and tidy. We couldn't fault it and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It is also a great place to stay for using the Park & Ride to go into York, going to the beautiful local beaches of Staithes, Robin Hood's Bay and Filey and also visiting the Yorkshire Moors.

Excellent lodge.. highly recommend

Very nice location as a lot of attractions are within an hour drive. Although in a residential area, but the lodge is very secluded and only living creatures we could see were birds and rabits.. Richard was very quick in responding to all of our queries and was very helpful. Bridget spent long time in cleaning And sanitising the lodge to keep it ready for us. Have to mention that the chocolate cake was amazing welcome treat. Our autistic son loved the entire stay and would definitely plan another visit as York has much more to discover..!!

The property is very clean and well equipped. It is in a very quiet and secluded location and ideal for anyone wanting to use as a base for day trips around North Yorkshire. The veranda is lovely and it was entertaining watching the rabbits and squirrels.
