Osa

Details

Escape to the Yorkshire countryside to Osa, a studio lodge designed for couples, solo travellers and dog-friendly breaks. Beautiful Nordic interiors of deep blacks and dark tones combined with the far-reaching North Yorkshire views offer something truly unique - a restorative glamping break with luxury touches.

Step inside this black timber-cladded cabin, into a calm and welcoming space. A bold palette of deep blacks and dark tones runs through the interiors, drawn from the drama of volcanic stone and the simplicity of Nordic design. A large window is the focal point and pulls the North Yorkshire countryside right into the heart of the space.

Built-in seating for two is ideal for enjoying a morning coffee before planning a day ahead in the Yorkshire Dales. The king-size bed makes the perfect spot for unwinding after a day outdoors, switching off and soaking in those far-reaching views. The kitchenette is stocked with all the essentials for a self-catering break. Heating ensures guests are comfortable year-round. The bathroom, featuring a shower and stocked with Skandinavisk toiletries, completes the cleverly-designed space.

Take it all in from your outdoor private jacuzzi-style hot tub or unwind on the paved patio with charcoal BBQ, acacia wood and stone tables, and comfortable rope dining chairs for two. The lodges at Greenbank Lodges have been designed to showcase the wonderful surroundings and breathtaking views of Yorkshire. Linger over breakfast before heading out on a walk in the local area, or venturing out to explore the Yorkshire Dales.
