Experience the Yorkshire Dales From Your Own One-Bed Scandinavian Lodge

Imagine a weekend where you can truly switch off, explore the countryside at your own pace, and enjoy quality time together. With your own One-Bedroom Scandinavian-Style Lodge at Aysgarth Leisure Resorts, the best of the Yorkshire Dales is on your doorstep.

Here’s how a couple’s weekend could look when you own your own lodge.

Friday Evening: Arrive & Unwind

After a scenic drive through the Dales, arrive at your lodge—a cosy, Scandi-inspired retreat designed for two. Warm rustic interiors, soft furnishings, and a private courtyard with a hot tub set the scene for total relaxation.

No need to worry about bookings or check-ins. Your lodge is yours whenever you want it. Aysgarth Leisure Resorts is open year-round and just 40 minutes from the A1, meaning you can reach your weekend escape within a couple of hours from many major northern cities, no matter the season.

Saturday Morning: Waterfalls & Woodland Walks

Start the day with coffee in your private courtyard before heading out to Aysgarth Falls, one of the Dales’ most iconic sights. These three waterfalls, framed by woodland trails, are perfect for a gentle walk and a few photos along the way.

For a touch of history, nearby Bolton Castle offers panoramic views and fascinating stories from the past along with daily falconry displays, beautiful gardens and a tearoom.

Saturday Afternoon: Local Flavours & Downtime

Refuel with a pub lunch or visit the Wensleydale Creamery to sample award-winning cheeses. Then, return to the lodge for some downtime where you can soak in the hot tub, curl up with a book, or simply enjoy the peace and quiet of your own private space.

Saturday Evening: Quality Time Together

Evenings in the Dales are all about unwinding. Cook a relaxed meal or head to The Falls Restaurant for dinner, play a board game, or step outside to enjoy the clear night skies. Being positioned in a Dark Skies Reserve, your courtyard is the perfect place to stargaze and spot constellations.

Sunday: Slow Start & Farewell

Finish your weekend with a gentle morning stroll, perhaps to the Edwardian Rock Garden or enjoy a leisurely breakfast at your lodge. Before heading home, one last visit to the falls is the perfect way to end your stay.

Owning a one-bed Scandinavian lodge at Aysgarth means weekends like this don’t have to be occasional, they can be part of your lifestyle.
