  We stayed here as a family of three and what a beautiful place to stay!

  Ideal for exploring the surrounding areas. We visited Thornton-Le-Dale, Scarborough and Robin Hood’s Bay while we were there. We also went to Alpamare water park when we were there which was only a 5/10 minute drive and brilliant for families! It was great to come back to the lodge after a busy day and relax in the hot tub, with the most beautiful and tranquil views. The lodge was clean and beautifully decorated, the sofa and bed was comfortable. I would say it is probably better suited to couples that eat out most of the time though. There were a few things people should be aware of. There was a wedding on the Friday and Saturday night when we were there. The music was loud until midnight and then you could hear people talking and waiting for taxis outside after this. However, the music didn’t bother us at all. It was a wedding after all and it was quite fun joining in doing the Macarena whilst sitting in the hot tub. We even made a hedge friend on the Saturday night when someone started whistling and talking to us from the other side of the hedge, which we found hilarious! The kitchen is stocked with the very basics and only four of everything (and only three bowels). There is no freezer, which we found hard, and we found it would’ve suited us better to have a freezer rather than a dishwasher. Although, the staff were so friendly and we were given ice a couple of times when we were unable to get some from the shop, which was very kind. It would’ve also been handy to have a door mat at the back door too, especially when you’re coming back in from the hot tub. We used one of our towels on the floor to prevent slipping. There were so many flies, but that’s to be expected on a farm. The shower wasn’t very powerful and more storage would’ve been great too! The butchers and tea room on site are both brilliant and the staff are fantastic! We can highly recommend the family breakfast and BBQ packs from the butchers and the sandwiches and ploughman’s lunch from the tea room was delicious too. Overall, there were a few things mentioned above that could’ve be tweaked to make our experience even better. However, that view, that stunning view, made up for everything! We would definitely like to return in the future and would definitely recommend it as a fantastic place to stay and explore.

  Our recent stay at Aspen Lodge in Whitby was nothing short of extraordinary.

  Nestled in a serene location near The Stables at Cross Butts, the lodge offers the perfect blend of tranquility and charm. The picturesque countryside views set the tone for a peaceful and rejuvenating long weekend away. The lodge itself was a haven of comfort. Thoughtfully designed, it boasted cosy interiors that made it feel like a home away from home. The attention to detail was evident in every corner, from the plush furnishings to the immaculate cleanliness. Waking up each morning to the soft glow of the sunrise filtering through the windows was a daily delight, making it hard to leave the comfort of the bed. Location-wise, Aspen Lodge is unbeatable. The proximity to The Stables was a unique and enchanting aspect of the stay. This location offers a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The surrounding area is a treasure trove of natural beauty, with scenic trails and coastal views just a short distance away. Now, let’s talk about the food and drink at The Stables – absolutely top-notch! Every meal was a culinary delight, showcasing the best of local produce. Breakfasts were hearty and wholesome, perfect for setting you up for a day of exploration. Dinners were a gourmet experience, with dishes that could easily rival those of a high-end restaurant. Paired with a carefully curated selection of wines, each meal was an indulgence that left me looking forward to the next. In conclusion, Aspen Lodge in Whitby offers an idyllic retreat that combines the best of location, comfort, and culinary excellence. Whether you’re looking for a quiet getaway or an adventure in the stunning Whitby surroundings, this lodge is the perfect choice. I left feeling completely refreshed and already dreaming of my next visit.

  there was no mention AT ALL that you was unable to park near the property, the directions led you to believe you could park outside or very near the property. NO mention at all that you needed to collect a scratch card to enable you to park in certain zones, no directions where to park your car to do this, we called to speak to someone as was not happy we needed to walk quite a distance with our luggage and had to wait nearly an hour for a response and then it was only via txt not even a courtesy call. we then received an apology for the lack of instructions, not the ideal way to start your holiday !! the website needs to state clearly the parking situation, especially if people are less mobile or have young children. If we had known we couldn't park outside our property we wouldnt have booked it. The outside very small courtyard with fake grass smelt (from previous dogs urinating we assume) it was so bad our dog wouldnt even go out there. The bed was very uncomfortable and the website photos certainly improve the look of the property. The outside terrace certainly would not have been an enjoyable small space to sit in surrounded by a high wall and buildings. All in all we have had much more enjoyable stays at other places.

  Just arrived home from last minute family get away staying in the Mayflower lodge.

  We literally booked the day we arrived and the whole process was great with no issues at all. We are a family of four and a dog, lodge was great for our needs, the only minor points I would note, two teenagers so small twin room but I guess that's typical of such lodges so didn't detract from my rating or enjoyment either, I also found the double bed springy but I think this must have been me as can't see this mentioned previously i marked comfort down only slightly, also the hot tub was great and lovely and hot on our arrival but it was small and there is no way all four of us would get in and be comfortable on a colder evening but we still enjoyed it and took it I turns, lol! Unlike previous comment no issues with the sliding shower screen, was able to take a shower no problem and it was a good hot and powerful shower. I would definitely recommend, location was great, enjoyed the lodge, wrap around decking, private hot tub area and importantly for us a gate so secure for the dog. Short walk to the lovely local bay and local pub on site, we had a meal one evening in the pub and spent a few hours in Whitby which was a short drive away one day. Lots of places to walk dog too around the lodge. Thank you for our stay!

  We have just returned from a weeks stay in this wonderful accommodation and we were very happy with our holiday.

  The lodge itself is fantastic, was quite well equipped and was very clean on arrival. The views are stunning and the hot tub was obviously the biggest bonus! We had little contact with the owners / staff during our stay, but they were welcoming when we arrived. This place is in the perfect location for travelling to nearby towns and beaches and is set on a lovely farm. We had a wonderful stay, but there are just a couple of things we wanted to point out: We feel that all windows on the bottom floor (bathroom and side window) should have a blind or curtain, particularly as it's such a busy little place and we felt our privacy was hindered at times. Additionally, a better brush or even hoover would be ideal as it was hard to keep the floors tidy. Lastly, during the week we had a little issue with small black bugs coming in from under the big french doors (they stayed around the door). We didn't raise this as an issue at the time as it's probably expected in the countryside and didn't cause us much bother, but it could be something to look at for the future. However, we really loved this accommodation and would definitely return if we were in the area again! Thanks.
