STEP INSIDE
Rustic charm meets modern elegance with the open-plan log cabin living. Centred around the sofas and the fire, the heart of this holiday home is designed for relaxation and togetherness. Comfy sofas, soft lighting, log cabin interiors and windows that frame the spectacular views are all the ingredients needed for a wonderful group getaway. Be sure to light the woodburning stove and get the fire roaring before settling down on the comfortable sofa with a movie on the Smart TV; it's best enjoyed with a box of the excellent Inspired Chocolates whose shop is in Leyburn. The well-equipped self-catering kitchen has everything you need to cook a meal around the 4-person dining table. Dogs are welcome in this two-bedroom luxury log cabin with a hot tub, so your pups aren’t missing out on the fun.
TO SLEEP
This log cabin features two bedrooms, both of which have en-suite bathrooms and French doors that open straight onto the patio and those breathtaking North Yorkshire views. The master bedroom has a super king-sized zip and link bed with an en-suite, which includes a bath and overhead rainfall shower. The second bedroom is a super king-sized bed, which is zip-and-link so it can be split into twin beds for friends or children. In here is an en-suite shower room. Both bedrooms feature a smart TV, allowing you to relax and enjoy your favourite shows or streaming services from the comfort of your bedroom.
OUTDOORS
Throw open any of the French doors and step onto your private patio and enclosed garden, so all members of the family can play freely in the garden. Your jacuzzi-style hot tub is perfectly placed under cover for long soaks while enjoying the views. Dine al fresco around the rattan 4-person table and chairs, firing up the gas BBQ after stocking up from the local butcher or at Campbell's shop in Leyburn. Enjoy a drink from the bamboo cane covered outdoor bar with high stools, ideal for socialising with friends and family whatever the weather. Whether you’re enjoying a sunny afternoon drink or a cosy evening under the shelter, it’s the perfect spot to relax and take in the surroundings. Sun Hill Lodges is truly the perfect destination for those wanting to unwind whilst admiring the stunning racehorses that reside at the surrounding paddocks.
