Swallow Lodge is a traditional Scandinavian/North American log home which has charm and character throughout, with luxurious touches of style. The lodge is located just outside the village of Thornton Watlass, which lies between the small market towns of Bedale and Masham in North Yorkshire, each having plenty of beautiful independent restaurants, pubs, cafés, and galleries in a quaint market town setting, Masham has the famous Black Sheep brewery along with its visitor’s centre. Just a short drive away is the picturesque cathedral city of Ripon which is a must to visit.

Enter through the front door and be greeted by a large sitting room, with a modern wood burning stove and an ambience designed to make you relax and feel at ease in your surroundings, especially after a day exploring this stunning area. It is a lodge with a difference with two spacious balconies from the second-floor bedrooms. Here you can relax on a summer evening, basking in the gorgeous scenery of the Yorkshire Dales and surrounding countryside. The lodge boasts three good sized bedrooms all with en-suite facilities, two twin rooms and one master. The first-floor bedrooms each have their own stunning balcony, with an additional sofa bed downstairs.

There is lots of seating accommodation for all the family or groups of friends to dine together, with an open plan kitchen/diner meaning you all enjoy each other’s company whilst meals are being prepared. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need and there are French doors leading to the well-maintained rear garden. Here you can relax with a glass of fizz whilst enjoying the spectacular countryside scenes which surround the lodge.

This is the perfect retreat for families and friends all year round. You might like to do a little exploring and walking around the local area, before relaxing in comfort with a glass or two of your favourite tipples. Swallow Lodge is also dog friendly, so bring your furry friends along with you and let them enjoy the scenic walks straight from your doorstep.
