Ribblesdale Lodges

Lovely lodge with everything you need for a short break. The beds were really comfortable.

Deer Park Cottage at Ribblesdale Park is an absolute gem! Nestled in the serene beauty of the Yorkshire Dales, it offers a perfect blend of luxury and tranquility. The cottage is impeccably designed, with cozy interiors, a well-equipped kitchen, and a private hot tub that’s ideal for unwinding after a day of exploring. The surrounding parkland is breathtaking, with stunning views and easy access to picturesque walks. The staff are warm and attentive, making every stay feel special. Whether for a romantic getaway or a peaceful retreat, Deer Park Cottage is truly unforgettable!

Amazing birthday weekend

This was our fifth visit for a midweek break staying in a different lodge than usual Knightley Lodge was perfect for us had everything we needed and stunning views. All the staff made us feel welcomed, special thanks to Ian for bringing our dog some treats. Food was 10/10 can not fault the breakfast same with evenings. Looking forward to returning next year - thanks all!

Needs completely revamping, outside area not great, hot tub very poor and old.

Stayed as a family of 5 with a 20 month old and a dog. Overall a very good stay. Lodge was bigger than expected- very large and spacious. Furniture appears tired. Washing machine was a great touch. Hot water was intermittent. Outdoor area decking/fencing needs a deep clean and in need of TLC. Hot tub was great - remained at temperature throughout. The pub/restaurant had a great outdoor seating area. Staff seemed very busy - they failed to inform us of the happy hour offer and failed to explain which drinks were included in this. Shame as we spent a lot of time there and didn’t find out until the last two days. The park area could do with more facilities - especially for toddlers. Overall would recommend to visit.

old tired mny things broken or missing , very dark and dingy

A bit of dust in places, sofa had a small tear in a cushion Hot tub- not all jets firing properly Overall a good lodge

OK place but not as good as the website makes out.

Some of the fixtures and fittings are starting to look a bit run down and in need of repair. The hot tub lid was broken and needs replacing.

This was our 3rd visit to Ribblesdale Lodges. Previously stayed in Wentworth and Sika. This time we stayed in number 58 a Knightley Lodge. Unfortunately, we were not as happy in this lodge as the previous ones. Quite a few negative points that can be easily rectified. We had paid for an early check in and had to wait an extra 1/2 an hour more to be ready. So we decided to have a drink while waiting. This took 20 minutes to arrive? One coffee and one beer. The young male staff member being quite abrupt saying we had to come back at 1 for the lodge. This lodge has become slightly run down needing some tlc in places. Firstly, the wooden gate was broken, it had been mended before but it was still not right and quite difficult to shut properly. The paved area was quite dangerous in places with large spaces in between that needed filling in also weeds growing in between. Some of the paving moved and was broken. The sofas were dirty and marked and very soft. The toilet in one bedroom did not flush well and the button on stop needed replacing. The door handle on the inside was very loose. The dining table we had to keep cleaning as it was extremely sticky, which wouldn’t go away. Kitchen equipment needs replacing especially the one frying pan. Some fixtures and fitting also need replacing throughout. There is an outside light that stays on all night, no switches inside the lodge. Unfortunately, this can be seen through, under and above the curtains in the main bedroom which keeps the room bright all night. There is also a boiler housed in the main bedroom that goes off through the night without any heat being on. The shower tray kept filling to the top, so maybe this is blocked? We are disappointed to leave these negative points as previously the lodges were good. On a positive the area is outstanding and the park kept extremely clean and tidy. It is lovely for the peacocks and deer to come into your area and be able to feed them. We felt that the lodge and possibly others have become slightly run down. Understandably the park is open all year round so repairs can be difficult, however if some were closed and repaired where needed negative reviews wouldn’t be necessary. There has been a change over in staff in the restaurant. Having booked a table for all three nights. The service we received on the first night was very bad, being understaffed we were later told. We were in there two hours for one course, we had ordered a dessert that sat on the counter for 20 minutes. We left and paid for what we had had. We had to keep asking for the correct cutlery and to order a drink and food. The two young waitresses were not very accommodating. That is not the customers issue I’m sorry, we are not local or residents, just staying at the park. The food however is good. We were offered a meal on them the following night by the manager, we declined and cancelled the last two evenings tables booked. We had previously on both occasions we stayed at the park, ate in the restaurant every evening. We would highly recommend The White Bull in Gisburn. Staff and service excellent and the food was beautiful. So disappointed to leave a review with quite a few negative issues as previously we loved staying at this park. This review is based on our experience in this particular lodge.

Very good accommodation and park facilities. Excellent cafe and bar. Park ground fantastic.Only disappointed was the condition of the decking.

Ribblesdale Park is a lovely setting. We stayed in a Morland Lodge and it had ample space for 4 adults and 2 toddlers. Upon check in we were told the lodge was ready, the heating was on and the hot tub was ready for us however when we got to the lodge the heating was not on, the fuses were all switched off and the hot tub was only up to 20 degrees and did not reach optimum temperature until the next night. The bed in the smaller double room was terrible, it creaked and you could feel every spring. These were the only things that let the lodge down. Overall we had a pleasant stay.

Fantastic experience from start to finish

We visited the same lodge 4 years prior and everything was top spec. Unfortunately on this occasion it appears as though little updating has been done. Hot tub cold on 2 of the days. Hot tub in poor condition, with head rests missing no lighting working and cover not really adequate.

Lovely site ,lodge nice & warm very comfortable. Loved the hot tub .Good restaurant on site great new years eve party .Our second vist, strongly suspect it will not be our last

Already sent a complaomt

Brilliant friendly park , would deffinatley go back ... loved the wild life ,the stags were incredible .

Need extra loo and new tin opener **

There were a few issues that need attention for eg loose door handle in main bedroom and the light switches near the bed do not work Loose plug socket in small double roomCorkscrew / wine opener does not work Dishwasher tablet draw not easy to get shut mechanism not quite right I think a small side table in the main room would be helpful A rail for the steps outside would be helpful my mum has limited mobility so a rail could help.This sounds like we weren't happy with lots of things but we love the place its our 3rd time there and we plan to come again ! But these little things perhaps are missed in quick turn overs so I wanted to flag them up.

Brontë lodge was clean and comfortable , it had a huge garden which was enclosed for the dogs . It was a spacious lodge with everything we needed to self cater . The beds were comfortable and it’s so quiet at night time , perfect for a good nights sleep. The hot tub was well maintained and super clean . We had a lovely stay

Brilliant place to stay

Ok tried to re book but had problems

Comfortable clean lodge with all necessary amenities. Lovely hot tub in a little garden, enclosed and fantastic for our three dogs. Recommend whole heartedly.

Highly recommend this park

Lovely lodge, Deck needs a blast after winter. Overall great!

Lovely place to relax going again Soon

We had a fabulous staycation at Ribblesdale Park on the whole, few minor details ie few problems with the kitchen design and outside gate. We had the Spa treatments from Harriet and that was exceptional. Overall we enjoyed every minute of our holiday.

~We don't tend to return to a holiday location once we have been there but if were, we would definitely return here

Beautiful location tucked away. Shalets were spacious and comfortable. Hot tub was great. A bit rainy!

Loved this holiday, what’s not to like? a gorgeous location, lovely lodge, staff great and a happy hour on drinks!

Beautiful lodges in a tranquil setting. Hot tub was great. The only negative was it was quite a walk to the swimming pool from the lodge so we gave that a miss. But overall fantastic weekend with the girls

Beautiful lodges in a beautiful setting. Had a wonderful time.

Wonderful place , we would definitely return ?

Really good. Weather is critical but the heated pool helped when it was overcast and cool. The hot tub was excellent. The lodge was first class and outdoor area of the lodge was perfect. I felt I could have stayed longer just taking it easy. If I couldn't be bothered to cook, the restaurant would satisfy my needs. The staff were easy to talk to and made us feel special. Because the weather can vary, some information on local attraction would have a help. Advice on where to buy a paper ect would have been welcome if included in the welcoming notes.

Beautiful location, cabin clean and spacious. However a few minor tweaks would have improved an already great stay. No shade outside and no umbrella for table provided. No plastic glasses as stated.

Beautiful setting and lodge was beautiful as well

Excellent high quality lodge, very clean and kept in good condition. Parkland setting was very nice with plenty of local walks.

Had an absolutely fabulous week here. The lodge was beautiful, very clean and well equipped. The beds however are extremely uncomfortable and as I have multiple health issues I had to purchase mattress toppers to make it bearable! The hot tub is set a few degrees too warm and after a warm day was too hot to get in and the staff could not lower the temperature. Be aware the kettle is not electric it goes on the gas hob, so plan a cuppa in advance as it takes an age to boil hehehe. The surroundings are beautiful and there are very tame peacocks strolling around and the beautiful Fallow deer stags wander round the park. We hand fed them as they are so tame and friendly. This really made it special. The restaurant had a limited but good menu and the food was excellent. The park need to consider installing charging points for electric cars.

A family holiday spent at Ribblesdale Park was wonderful. The lodge itself was beautiful and clean and the hot tub was much appreciated. The lodge was secure with fencing and a gate which was much appreciated with a small dog and a toddler! The surroundings were idyllic with peacocks and deer roaming the grounds. Although Gisburn itself is a quiet village, there is so much to do in the surrounding area all within a short drive from the Park. A great holiday, we will return.
