Sigrun

The Scandinavian inspiration for this lodge is evident from the moment you enter. From the clean lines to the contemporary interiors that wonderfully balance functionality with beauty. A large picture window at one end of the lodge frames stunning countryside views, filling the interior with natural light and creating a seamless connection to the landscape beyond. Positioned to make the most of the view, the king-size bed offers the perfect place to wake up slowly and enjoy peaceful Yorkshire mornings.

The lodge features a well-equipped kitchen complete with a combi microwave/oven, hob and fridge, alongside a cosy dining area with built-in bench seating for relaxed breakfasts and evening meals. A contemporary bathroom and walk-in shower stocked with Skandinavisk toiletries completes the thoughtfully designed space, providing everything needed for a comfortable countryside escape.

Outside, Sigrun's outdoor space has been designed for relaxation in every season. Unwind in the sheltered jacuzzi-style hot tub, enjoy al-fresco dining with countryside views, or fire up the charcoal barbecue for a leisurely evening outdoors.

The on-site walking loop is perfect for a morning stretch or a final stroll before settling in for the evening. Whether you're soaking under the stars or exploring the grounds, Sigrun offers the perfect balance of privacy, comfort and connection to the Yorkshire countryside.
