Beautiful lodge in tranquil surroundings - simply stunning!

The lodge was immaculate and the washing machine was a big bonus as we were visiting our son at the University! A slice of peace and tranquility with lots of walking and a lovely pub through the woods. Our 3rd visit to Hollicarrs and we have already booked our fourth.

We had a lovely stay in this beautiful lodge with hot tub, spacious and well equipped.

We love the views that this lodge affords, we were enthralled by the kestrels feeding their young in what appeared to be four separate nests, all visible from our outside area, everything in the lodge is of a high standard and feels special, we cooked a couple of meals and found everything we needed including kitchen scales. The beds are very comfortable and we slept well.

We enjoyed the time to relax in a lovely setting in a very clean and well appointed lodge

We've stayed before (Kingfisher) and once again were impressed by the park, the cleanliness of the lodge the hot tub and the general facilities. We were spoilt by Kingfisher as its an amazing lodge. We ended up leaving a night earlier (on the Sunday night instead of the Monday morning) as the lodge was boiling hot and we couldn't figure out why - we kept turning the thermostat down but i think the heating is stuck on in the lodge and we were knackered by the Sunday evening.

Peaceful, tranquil weekend Away.

We are regular visitors to Hollicarrs Park Estate. Staying in a few log cabins previously, we were again speechless at how beautiful the cabin was presented. The Rushes has been beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean, attention to detail, with everything you need for a wonderful stay . Extremely quiet, overlooking the woods and a fabulous hot tub to enjoy, which is checked twice a day by two very friendly , great chaps . We would definitely stay in The Rushes again, hopefully soon…

We loved every minute of it and didn’t want to leave.

The Rushes lodge was beautifully decorated and felt so cosy. The facilities was everything we needed and there was milk and even a bottle of Prosecco in the fridge for us on arrival. We love the fact the hotubs are cleaned everyday and they are emptied and cleaned once you leave for the next people. The walks around there are beautiful and it’s just so peaceful and you can even play tennis or hire out bikes from reception. The staff are super friendly. Honestly can’t wait to book again ❤️

About the host

Host profile image
Hollicarrs Holiday Park is part of the historic Escrick Park Estate, which has been in the same family for over 350 years. Its very much a family run business and all of our staff are an intergral part of keeping the Estate and the Holiday Park running smoothly.

Nature and conservation are of paramount importance to the Hollicarrs team, and you will see this for yourself the moment you step onto the holiday park. We have held the David Bellamy Gold Award for Conservation since opening the park in 2005.

All holiday lodges are privately owned, and Hollicarrs acts as an agent for the sub-letting of lodges.
