The local area
Landal Woodland Lakes is nestled between both the North York Moors and Yorkshire Dales National Parks, making it an ideal base for those wanting to explore these areas of outstanding natural beauty.
From Lake View Lodge you can explore both The Howardian Hills and the neighbouring North York Moors National Park. Both offer excellent walking routes for seasoned ramblers and those looking for a more sedate meander alike. It’s also a perfect place for a cycling holiday with miles upon miles of perfect climbs and descents awaiting your discovery.
Being just 20 miles north of the City of York you are also perfectly placed to head into the city to experience the culture of the Minster, museums, galleries and the ancient City walls. Or if your passion is food, you’ll find many excellent independent bars and restaurants to discover! York is a city brimming with history and culture.
The pretty bustling local market town of Thirsk is just 2 ½ miles from the lodge. A lovely walk if you so wish but defiantly worth a wander and explore. The market town is known for its racecourse, quirky yarn bombing displays and depiction as local author James Herriot’s fictional Darrowby. Lined with lots of quaint independent shops, pubs and restaurants, delis and cafes and weekly markets and a Monday & Saturday!

This property deserves 10 ⭐️ it was absolutely unbelievable, stunning, that Scandi feel. It’s warm and inviting.The owners have put so much work & love into covering everything for everybody’s needs from the board games & dvds for all ages to small cups and a baby’s beaker should you forget anything.We had the pleasure of meeting the owner who was a lovely man and borrowed my husband his fishing gear so he could fish.We surprised our kids with this accommodation, we think they were expecting a caravan not this two storey log cabin, they were not disappointed.Hours of fun and laughter with feeding the ducks that came up right to our door and the goats just randomly walking around, amazing.A quiet site with the fabulous fishing lakes on. A great little pub with super friendly staff, good food in the cafe and restaurant.Swimming pool and play centre in the reception area.Small village with all you need though, plenty of pubs for food. We used this as a base for visiting all the surroundi

Very spacious and comfortable property with loads of little extras thrown in, such as board games and DVDs for the kids. The hot tub was a big plus for the adults, too. All rooms were spacious, and the views over the fishing lakes from the master bedroom was stunning. We will miss waking up to that view every day.

Stayed for new year as a family of 4. We had a great time. The Lodge is spacious and cosy and the site is peaceful, with a good swimming pool. We would highly recommend.

We stayed here as a family with two young children and had an absolutely wonderful time. The cottage is beautiful and full of charm, set in a peaceful and scenic environment. Our children loved the tame ducks and the goats walking around the property, which made the stay extra special. The jacuzzi was a real highlight as well. We truly enjoyed every moment and were very sad when our stay came to an end. We would love to return in the future. Thank you very much for this lovely stay.

Lovely place to stay, very clean and comfy very cosy! Lots of animals paid us a visit so make sure to shut the door! We were told the ducks and goats will come inside! Lovely lakes if you like fishing or just walking around. The watermill restaurant really lovely food. Beds were extremely comfortable. Lovely lodge would definitely recommend.

An amazing log cabin overlooking fishing lakes with really odd unexpected (welcome) visitors (goats). Amazing cabin. So warm and cosy. Perfect for a getaway. Everything you need is in the cabin. You will want for nothing. Perfect position. Well worth another visit.

Nice countryside cottage. Looks like a cute ski cabin. Really comfortable bed, good heating and nice hot tub.
Louis Stayed: October 2024
Great stay with my boys at the lovely cabin. It was always warm and cosy and the sofas and beds were super comfy. Great deep baths too and the hot tub a great end to the day. It was on a lovely quiet site with some great restaurants I would massively recommend the fajita board at the water mill restaurant on site.
