Blackthorn Gate - Nunthorpe

Fantastic first experience of staying at a cabin, on a working farm with fabulous fishing lakes.

The cabin is spacious, well-planned and makes the most of the beautiful countryside featured from the lounge and veranda. There is the hot tub which we hope to use on our next visit, and a sauna room. We need to note that if your 14 year old is 6'4", it's best to remember they'd be a tight fit in to a bunk bed!

The unexpected highlight was seeing trains pass by on unseen tracks a few fields away, but across our view. Other highlights - the view, the sounds and sight of wildlife, the walks particularly the woodland where we saw a deer...

A great central location with easy, quick access to the East coast and North-East England.

Highly recommended. Mike & Rita are great hosts and lovely to speak with.

2 years in the making thanks to lockdown but the wait was worth it. Lodge was fantastic with the sauna and hot tub just finishing things off at the end of the day. Views are amazing and to add in some private fishing was a serious bonus. Definitely will be back.

A nice place for a family stay, large cabins and farm to explore with lakes, woods and fields and the coast just 25 minutes away! But the WiFi is poor and the wet-room floor was bumpy and didn't drain easily but this didn't effect the trip much.

Just returned from a lovely relaxing stay with my family at these wonderful tranquil lodges.

The quality of the lodge was first class and very well appointed. The touches that Rita adds really make the difference. The milk and biscuits was a nice thought. Even the binoculars on the bookcase and picnic blanket...all well thought out.

The views are stunning whether your sat on the sofa, on the decking or in the hot tub.

Thanks again for a lilove stay. Will definitely be back!

Dont usually leave reviews but I just have to. It exceeded all my expectations. We stayed at curlew for my friends bridal retreat and had soo much fun. I didnt want to leave, it was so relaxing and peaceful. Rita was so lovely aswel. And there was a little bottle of milk and biscuits left for us which is such a lovely and thoughtful touch. Cannot wait to return and would strongly reccomend! P.s the sauna is incredible!!

WOW is the word for these Cabins and location. Having stayed in many beautiful log cabins all to a high spec i must say Blackthorne gate has it all. Owners are wonderful nothing is to much trouble you only have to ask. Cabin Clean spacious well equipped even had hoover and mop and bucket, to some this may not be a priority however for us it is having our dog we like to keep cabin clean during our stay, leave as you find. Hot tub fab with amazing views and sauna a bonus gym which we used after our stint up the Toppings. Farm is wonderful for both adults & children. Three well stocked ponds for fishing lovely walk around the land looking at all nature has to offer. Even got to see the sheep with their baby's. games room with table tennis pool table and table football. Excellent get away for all.

The cabins are very nice, spacious and homely. The sauna was amazing. The whole place and experience was very positive. Rita and Mike are genuinely nice people. I'll be staying again soon.

A weekend treat from the Wife for my 51st birthday, we stayed on site the whole weekend.
Got up 04:50 Saturday morning and sat out on the decking with a hot drink and watched the sun rise behind Roseberry Topping till 08:30, it's was something that I've always wanted to do but had never found the time or location, took a photo every ten minutes (got some great pictures).
Sunday morning we got a visit from one of your Meet and Greet team, a very friendly Tabby cat who stayed with us on the decking for an hour or so.
All in all for stressful recent times it was just what the Doctor ordered.
Been twice before and will definitely visit again. Thank you.
P. S saw the Barn Owl hunting again (Awesome!)
