About this property

Tawny Lodge - a couples retreat that sleeps 2 guests

Tawny Lodge is a charming and cosy woodland retreat, perfectly designed for a relaxing escape. Set close to the Acomb area, the lodge offers an abundance of nearby shops, cafés, supermarkets and places to eat, making it easy to enjoy both convenience and seclusion during your stay.

Inside, you’ll find a beautifully presented open plan living space with warm wooden floors and underfloor heating throughout, creating a comfortable and inviting atmosphere all year round. The well equipped kitchen has everything you need to prepare holiday meals, and the dining table comfortably seats two, making it ideal for intimate evenings in.

The living area is perfect for unwinding, whether you’re enjoying a quiet night in on the sofa with a movie or simply relaxing after a day exploring York. From here, doors open onto a private terrace and balcony area, where you can take in peaceful views over the surrounding woodland. It’s a tranquil spot to enjoy your morning coffee or an evening drink while watching birds and local wildlife in their natural setting.

The lodge is especially suited for couples looking for a romantic getaway but also offers flexibility for small families, with a travel cot available if needed. It works equally well for both leisure breaks and serviced stays, whether short or long term.

The bedroom is comfortable and thoughtfully designed, with an ensuite bathroom featuring both a bath and an overhead shower, as well as a small walk in wardrobe for added convenience.

For those wishing to explore, York city centre is just a five minute drive away, with a regular bus service also available. The property includes parking for one car and a dedicated EV charger, allowing you to leave the car and explore with ease once you arrive.

Tawny Lodge offers the perfect blend of peaceful woodland living and easy access to one of the UK’s most historic and vibrant cities, making it an ideal base for both relaxation and adventure.

Fabulous stay - can’t fault it

What a great place to stay, very clean and well equipped, shower was better than at home. Very comfortable bed. Could not fault it and one of the best places we have stayed in the uk. Great location with a bus stop right outside the door to go into town and your own parking space. Will defiantly book again if we ever go back to York

Great place for a short break

8/10 Good

Very comfortable

Very comfortable accommodation although sofa is more suited to tall people- as an average height female I did slide off. Would be useful if the directions stated that it’s between the turnings Moorgate and West Bank. As the house doesn’t have a number I had to park the car and go and look for it. Some of the items in the kitchen drawer were not particularly clean but I guess that reflects previous occupants rather than the cleaners. It is comfortable and convenient if you have a car. The garden is overgrown and if it was me I would have some pictures on the walls: it’s quite functional and masculine
