I really fancy these lodges too..there are loads of excellent reviews on "Trip advisor" about them. have a look

My parents stayed there in may with my sister and her children, although the lodges themselves are very very well equiped, there is absolutely nothing else there. As it was a bank holiday even the shop was shut, and was told that was very basic.

The lodges are set in a large pine forest which is completely over run with squirrels. Apart from the hot tubs there didnt appear to be much else on offer. The pine forests are massive and i think it would be easy for small children to wander off and get lost unless constantly supervised.

If you want peace and quiet and nothing to do then I would imagine this would be a fantastc place to stay. If you have children who want a bit more then I think they would get very bored.

Even the nearest village didnt have a paper shop on a sunday so go well prepaired...we had panic phone calls asking for extra loo rolls and washing up liquid !!

Thanks for the info neilabray. Its just me and the hubby for our aniversary so am not too worried about things to do but will stock up on essentials now i know there are no shops near by. Am going to Spain in Oct with two 15 year old boys so the peace and quite of Griffon Forest will be very welcome!!!!

Thanks again

hi new to holiday truths.
We have just had a week at griffon forest lodges nr York UK. Fantastic, Lodges first class lovely and warm, cosy and hot tub wonderful even in october. Wildlife brilliant we couldnt drag ourselves away to visit york as place was so peaceful and beautiful Got up 3 am and were rewarded with seeing badgers so close to lodge we could nearly touch them ( didnt cos theyd probably bite !!) Also a fox. Daytime abundance of birds squirrels rabbits and a woodpecker daily within 2 3 yards of lodge. 15 mins walk through woodland to Tykes restaurant excellent hospitality and food. Beautiful place would reccommend for anyone who wants to just chill .........

A little while ago someone on here was due to go, and they said it was absolutely superb.
It certainly does have some fantastic reviews.
Go, you won't be disappointed!
