Returning customers who enjoy the location and surrounding area. Some of the couches could do with upgrade due to age and for us the beds are a bid hard but overall we’ve enjoyed our numerous stays and will continue to return for our short Yorkshire breaks. ##### Fiona This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kimberley 11 Jun 2025 #### T This has to be the best lodge I have ever stayed in, it was absolutely perfect from parking to leaving, the lodge itself was a home away from it had everything you needed to cook and enjoy, the hot tub was clean hot and views to die for, the staff checking in was so helpful and kind and had a really good chat about things near by, this was for a girls weekend but I will definitely be back with my family for another stay 😀 thank you so much because we hadn't booked here but our accommodation was cancelled 5 hours before check in and cedar retreats jumped in and saved the day and I'm so glad they did, so thank you to everyone at cedar retreats you've truly spoilt us 😀 ##### Kimberley This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Margaret 4 Jul 2025 #### We had a very good holiday despite the awful weather the lodges are spacious clean and well equipped We had a very good holiday despite the awful weather the lodges are spacious clean and well equipped but the TV kept breaking up though the WiFi is excellent.phone reception however is poor.The park is peaceful and relaxing with ducks and rabbits and birds everywhere. It’s very quiet but near lots of lovely places to visit. ##### Margaret ### 8/10 Good #### M P. 22 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic location Beautiful setting. Clean lodges and lovely surroundings. Only one downside, not enough crockery and utensils. ##### M P.
