Mr Rhodes
October 2019
We would thoroughly recommend Sykes and Rushpool Hall.. The setting of the lodges is perfect for a quiet stress free break. We looked all over for somewhere to go and are so pleased we chose this one. Great value too Thank you
Ms Laird

The staff were friendly.. A welcome bottle of local wine and some dog chews were a nice touch. The grounds were beautiful and very dog friendly. My hoover did not work and there was no cafetière but everything else was lovely. The setting is idyllic. Once there is a good safe footpath to Saltburn-by-the-Sea it will be even better.

Beautiful, quiet surroundings just a short drive from Saltburn.. Greeted by friendly staff on arrival.

This cottage is in a most beautiful setting and it was well equipped apart from a fan.. There were only a few of these cottages surrounding a green and we liked that although it was a log cabin the wood inside was painted and looked fresh. It was essential that we could bring our dog with us as she is now totally blind and we were impressed that there were walks varying in length surrounding us. Disappointment that the bar in the hotel was only open for functions. A quiet relaxing break, we would book again.

We have stayed in this cottage several times and we love it very peacefull no trafic noise just 5 mins from sea front..

We expected high quality accommodation and that's what we got.. Our holiday was lovely. However, one way to improve the facilities would be to provide recycling bins as we chose to take home our glass, plastic and cardboard waste rather than deposit all rubbish in one bin for landfill. I think everyone expects this nowadays and it would be the responsible thing to do. Surely Rushpool Hall recycles within the hotel itself!?

Very relaxing setting.. ..just what we like. No hassle to book or get keys etc....lodge very warm and cosy..loved the recliner sofas. Have been to violet lodge twice now...even better second time. Only issue is that you still cannot walk to saltburn via the woods as stated...need a footbridge at bottom of woods to cross stream to get to saltburn, luckily we know another way.

A great Holiday cottage, wonderful site location.. It was tranquil and quite. Lovely woods to walk through or just sit and watch the wonderful wild life. Impressive. We took our small dog and were never at a loss for a new walk to take him on. The area sounding Rushpool Hall has some really special villages, both inland, where the dales are stunning, and along the coast. We are planning a second visit because there is so much more to see. Thank you Sykes for a really special holiday.

The lodge is in a great location, when we arrived the first thing we noticed was that the furniture for chilling out was only a patio set which was very uncomfortable and not a setee as advertised, also we notices the floor was full of bits and dirty same as in the kitchen area, there were cobwebs formed round the windows so was noticeable that the lodge hadn't been cleaned for a while, also bed very uncomfortable, would I go back ? sort these problem and yes I would love to go back

Fantastic peaceful setting with immaculate grounds close to the wild beaches of north Yorkshire..
Mrs Parker

The description of the cottage advises there is a path leading to saltburn town, a 10 minute walk.. However this path is down a muddy bank and there is a stream at the bottom to get across. Ok if hiking but not suitable for walking to saltburn for a meal out for example. We would not have booked this location had it not suggested a 10 minute walk.
Mrs Preece

No mattress cover on bed and no pillow protectors on bed pillows
Mr Martin
November 2017
Only problem was lodge was a little dusty, so I quickly cleaned it up with your cleaning accessories.. also you cannot walk direct to saltburn via woods as you stated as the beck/river is not crossable....otherwise really enjoyable week.....we are already planning to book violet lodge again sometime in April 2018 hopefully...all in all a very pleasant area to stay.

Have been 15 times,,, what more can you say
Mr Hill
September 2017
The cabin is set in a beautiful, peaceful location, with peacocks, squirrels, rabbits running around.. Saltburn is about 5 minutes away by car, and there are other attractive villages nearby, such as Staithes, Runswick Bay,RobinHoods Bay, Whitby, etc. The only disappointment was that we couldn't easily walk into Saltburn as there was no access across the river down the valley unless you walked up to and along the road to join a public footpath that took a long way round to get into the village. I would not recommend walking along the road as there are no pavements. The staff are helpful and friendly. The cabin is well equipped, with its own utility room. The bed is reasonably comfortable. The sofa and chairs are wicker conservatory style so not all that comfortable after sitting a while, but adequate for the time spent inside. All in all, it was a lovely week's holiday in very nice surroundings.
Mr Burton
September 2017
We enjoyed our stay at Violet Lodge and would book again in the future.. The lodge is very comfortable and the wet room is fantastic. A separate dining room was an unexpected plus for us too. The linen and towels were clean and the rooms were clean. There are plenty of crockery and utensils, the oven, hob and microwave all in good condition and clean. A good 32 inch TV with freeview channels is available. The internet worked fine most of the time with just the occasional hiccup and there are onsite booster Ariel's opposite the lodge. The settee and chairs could have been more comfortable. It was very peaceful and although there are another 9 lodges, only a couple were occupied at the time of our stay and you do not look directly onto another lodge at the front, the rear view overlooks the grounds of the hall and ancient woodland Making this a very relaxing quiet stay. The local wildlife is everywhere and the grounds are very well maintained and the Hall itself is a stately country estate owners house dating from the 1860s. The Hall however is available for wedding's and special venues only and not open to visitors. So the bar and facilities are no longer for use by customers of the Lodges. So be aware of this if you have read older reviews on trip adviser, as it used to be available for meals and drinks, a few years ago. The walk from the lodge through the ancient woodland directly to Saltburn is too difficult in parts as it entails crossing Skelton Beck and negotiating muddy pathways through woodland. Also the road leading to Saltburn has no pathways either side making this a dangerous walk. So I would recommend using the car to go to Saltburn, only a 5 minute drive but you will have to pay for parking. This was a shame really as we were led to believe from the information on the Sykes website that the walk was easily achievable and the town was easily accessible by foot. However you would have to be very fit and have the appropriate footwear in order to negotiate the beck in order to access Saltburn via the Valley Gardens side. All in all a lovely place to stay and I will be recommending it to our friends.
Mr Baxter

We expected to be able to purchase food and drink at the hotel but it only opened for weddings.. The town was too far to walk (1.5 miles) on unlit narrow winding roads so we just stayed in with bottle of wine watching TV. The grounds around the hotel were excellent but a disappointing holiday. Nothing against Sykes as a company.

The cottage was comfortable and clean. The peacocks are a notable feature of the grounds and we enjoyed watching them choosing a tree and one by one disappearing into the topmost branches to spend the night. Cottage was well placed for coast and moors.

Fantastic grounds - really beautiful. Very friendly and helpful staff at the hotel. A very comfortable and relaxing environment and cottage, plus, in a great location - very close to Saltburn. It was good value for money - I would thoroughly recommend Violet Cottage and will almost certainly return in the future.

We booked with Sykes cottages and stayed in July and are returning again shortly. I have mobility problems and this lodge is ideal for anyone who uses a mobility aid or wheelchair as the doorways are extra wide. It was well equipped and comfortable with excellent views of the grounds and Rushpool Hall. There are lots of peacocks in the grounds and the scenery is lovely. (Free wi-fi is available in the hotel lounge).

We were very pleasantly surprised by this lodge. The hotel were very helpful in providing extra bed linen and there is a very convenient supermarket close by to buy provisions. The lodge was clean and well equipped and you get regular visits by the local peacocks which is lovely until they decide to jump on the roof in the early hours! We would definitely book to go again and hopefully get a few other friends to take other lodges at the same time. (we wouldn't bother with breakfast in the hotel again though)
