A wonderful park with fantastically built decorated and furnished lodges set within the peace and quiet of woodland overlooking the tranquil fishing lake. The greeting and assistance provided by the owners was first class and remember to take some bread for the friendly ducks!" |

| "We arrived stressed out and in need of a much needed break and we left (reluctantly!) revived and rested. The accommdation is absolutely first class the setting was idyllic and yes the quality of the organic eggs are everything people have said about them. We would highly recommend this to anyone lookng for some 'time out' and a guarantee of a chilled and relaxed holiday. If you like to watch the glint of the sunshine reflecting on the lake or hear the soft patter of rain on the top of the water and hear nothing else other than the slurp of you drinking wine then book but only if you can beat us to it first!!! Thanks to Don also for his master class in fishing and all his tender loving care that was lavished upon us during our stay!!" |

| "Me and my partner have been twice now and we love it will go again soon. It is a bit far from everything but we love that. Don who runs the great wood is very friendly and welcoming there are only 4 lodges but all exactly the same except for the pictures in the lounge. The lodges are set around a big lake great BBQ for in the summer. Don always gives us some free range eggs from his chickens and also provides milk tea and coffee which makes you feel at home. In the lodge there is a full kitchen with dishwasher and even a washing machine the bedrooms are quite big with an en suite and shower you also have another bathroom as well. We will go back next year. " |

| "Anyone looking for peace and quiet in beautiful clean top quality lodges then look no further than Great Wood York. My husband and I have enjoyed a wonderful weekend in one of the four lodges available all of which surround a beautiful lake offering a wonderful spectacle of both flora and fauna. The attention to detail is what makes these lodges so special along with the warm welcome from Don & Helen. Ideally placed for a walk into Strensall to pick up provisions or a trip to the local in Flaxton which provided good food at reasonable prices. If you want to get away from it all this adults only retreat is just the place to do it. There is no doubt we will be returning again soon. " |
