Tulip Lodge Reviews

We loved our stay in Tulip Lodge, it was absolutely perfect. Very comfortable and with everything you need. Set in lovely grounds which are very peaceful. Hot tub was amazing and very private. Great enclosed area for our dog which wraps around the cabin. Outdoor seating was really nice too. We will be 100 returning next year we enjoyed it and the area so much. Perfect.

Lights on the decking didn't work so was walking to the hot tub in the dark wasn't the best. Everything else was lovely beautiful lodge nice and warm.
Perfect lodge can't pick any fault at all well equipped. .. hot tub great at the end of the day even the weather was kind to us well worth a visit
Carolyn
Tulip lodge was lovely, in a nice quiet secluded area. All the lodges are well spaced out so you could enjoy your own space. The kitchen was extremely well stocked with all the utensils needed for cooking & doing your own food. The hot tub was excellent, very clean & obviously well maintained we enjoyed a dip in that each day before chilling out in the evening. The only bit of feedback I would give on a downside was there were no towel rails apart from the towel radiators & the mirrors were too high on the wall to sit on the stools to use productively to do make up & dry hair etc apart from that which is a minor detail we had a wonderful relaxing stay & would definitely recommend to other people to go there. We were only a short drive away from Whitby & SaltburnByTheSea so loads of opportunities for exploring around the area. Has a wonderful week & will definitely go back again. Thanks for a lovely stay. Xx
Had a fantastic few days at Tulip Lodge only wished wed booked for longer! Lodge was very clean and had everything we needed & the hot tub was a real luxury. The site is lovely & quiet with only 7 lodges. Parking right next to lodge which was perfect. Well definitely be back!

Had a great time peaceful and relaxing enjoyed our visit
Perfect for what we wanted in an outstanding location
I booked this lodge based on its facilities, wifi, and hot tub, not its location. The reason for the short break was my autistic son's birthday. He loved his room, and the hot tub but the lack of working wifi caused some drama. I wouldn't class this lodge as having wifi because it never worked. I did call the mobile number to try and get it sorted but unfortunately they weren't on site. I would come back in a heartbeat with just the wife. Clean, well presented, lovely site and great area. Loved the bay. What amazing views.
Tulip lodge was a fantastic lodge. It was modern, spacious and clean. The site was quiet. Runswick Bay was amazing. The local pub was a 2 minute walk and so friendly. Including the gorgeous dog!! There was just 2 things that were disappointing, however they are not criticisms, just personal preferences. The WiFi was not great at all and this was a reason I booked the lodge. I know this may not bother most people and it may have been the whole area not just the lodge. We booked Tulip lodge as we thought it might be more private for the hot tub. Unfortunately it was next to gardens. We were very unlucky as for the first half of the holiday, the garden had very noisy people most of the time. This stopped us sitting outside. Luckily they were not there for the second half of the holiday. Again, this is just something that affected us and we may have just been unlucky, so again, it is not a criticism. We would definitely come back as it was a fantastic holiday. The bonus were the treats that were left for us including a bottle of prosecco which was an amazing touch. Thank you for a lovely holiday.
Can't fault the lodge. Clean and comfortable and has all the facilities you need. Thanks for sorting out the central heating which unfortunately needed at times as the weather not great but you can't control that Many thanks for a perfect week Cynthia, anne and Charlie the dog
Thoroughly enjoyed the holiday. Lovely to have the hospitality pack when we arrived. Beds extremely comfortable. Hot tub very relaxing. Local pubs excellent. The site and the people were nice. Monty dog loved it too! Hope to return.
Absolutely lovely lodge situated just 5 mins walk from the beach albeit up a very steep hill. The quality of the decor & furnishings is excellent and the lodge is equipped with everything you require for a break away. The addition of the hot tub is also an added bonus especially after a long day of walking along the Cleveland Way. We had a wonderful week and will definitely return. Thank you.
Really enjoyed our stay, comfortable, clean, spacious and just a short walk down to the beach. An absolute fabulous time Definitely hope to be back soon
