Birch Lodge, Pickering

Birch Lodge is a sleek two-bedroom lodge on the edge of the North Yorkshire Moors, set within a private complex near Pickering and Thornton-le-Dale. Rural woodland views surround the lodge and the private enclosed decked area gives you your own outdoor space away from the crowds. This is a well-equipped modern lodge that works hard for a group of four.

The North Yorkshire Moors sit right on your doorstep. Dalby Forest is five miles away for walking and cycling. Pickering town is local with its heritage steam railway. The coast at Whitby and Scarborough is within 25 miles. Flamingo Land is just 5.5 miles away.

The lodge sleeps four across two bedrooms. The king-size bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe and an en-suite with shower over the bath. The twin bedroom is served by a separate family shower room. Open-plan living combines lounge, dining and a modern kitchen with electric oven, gas hob, dishwasher, washer-dryer and a large Smart TV.

Outside you get a private bubbling hot tub on the enclosed decking plus outdoor furniture and a charcoal BBQ. Parking for one car is at the lodge with additional on-site parking available.

Birch Lodge suits families or groups of four wanting easy access to the Moors, coast and Flamingo Land. Book it for the hot tub, the views and the location.
