We had a pleasant stay in a lovely situation. The underfloor heating worked well and there was the backup of a wood stove if needed Although we don't have a dog it is the ideal place for those that do.

Rowan Lodge was a perfect location for us; one of us is a wheelchair user, and the lodge provided ample room to move around inside the Lodge easily from lounge to dining, to bed and bathroom. The location is ideal, providing a mid point between Bempton Cliffs and Flamborough to the south and the North Yorkshire Moors and Whitby to the North, and YRead moreork to the West. The lodge itself is very comfortable and warm, well equipped, with parking adjacent to the lodge. It is set in a beautiful rural farming landscape but just a short drive away from shops and restaurants/take-aways. Hide

The lady owners attitude was condescending when we asked her for advice on using the dishwasher and yes I have always figured them out before we were told she had left all the instruction books in a drawer and was astonished when we asked about the underfloor heating as if we should know all about it her attitude could also be described as passive Read moreaggressive never encountered this before Hide
