Foxes Den
Description
Resting in the rural village of Allerston in North Yorkshire, is this remarkable, detached holiday home, Foxes Den.
Benefitting from a bubbling hot tub and near the North York Moors National Park, this two-bedroom lodge is ideal for a group of four.
Upon arrival, be greeted by off-road parking and make your way inside through the French doors to unveil the open-plan living space.
Featuring vaulted ceilings and a woodburning stove, you can look forward to curling up on the sofa with a Smart TV to keep you entertained.
Stepping over to the kitchen, the designated chef will be thrilled with the oven and hob to rustle up tasty dishes and when dinner is served, dine together at the table, and uncork a bottle of fizz.
When the weather is warm, venture outside and unwind on the outdoor furniture or climb into your swimming attire for a soothing soak in the hot tub.
As the evening draws to a close, retreat inside and climb up the wooden staircase to the mezzanine bedroom with a king-size bed or choose the king-size on the ground-floor.
Begin your day with a moment of relaxation in the bathroom with a bubble bath in the freestanding tub or rinse off in the spacious walk-in shower to revive.
If you fancy a break from the kitchen, a short stroll will lead you to The Cayley Arms for a home-cooked meal or venture to the village of Thornton Dale for a crisp pint at a Georgian inn.
Jump in the car to visit the vibrant market town of Pickering, here you can browse independent shops for a souvenir, tour the ancient castle or if that's not for you head outside of Pickering for a scream at Flamingo Land Resort!
Avid walkers can take advantage of the close proximity of the North York Moors National Park to soak in the dramatic landscape on a hike or head to the coastal town of Scarborough, lined with arcades and traditional fish and chip shops.

Great place to stay in a good location for pubs and walks
Foxes Den is ideally situated to access the beautiful villages, countryside and coastline of North Yorkshire.
The site of 5 lodges is clean and secure and Foxes Lodge is beautiful with countryside views through a 2 storey window. We will be booking again in 2027 so that we can visit more of the attractions and natural beauty of North Yorkshire.
The Foxes Den is a beautiful secluded hidden gem with beautiful views and well equipped facilities.
The little added touches were what made the stay even better. On arrival we were welcomed by a personal welcome sign, Cake, Prosecco, tea and coffee and juice. The fresh eggs from the farm hens and chickens are delicious. The lodge was immaculate and the hot tub was great. We loved visiting the animals on the site. We found the location to be very handy for local attractions such as Pickering, the steam train and we absolutely loved Thornton Le Dale. We will 100% be back, Thankyou for a lovely stay.
22nd May to 29th may 2026 What a fantastic week as Foxes Den This was our second time there, and it was even better than the last.
We had incredible weather and there is always plenty to see and do. It's always such a lovely place to come back to after a busy day exploring. We loved feeding the chickens & Ducks and Seeing the sheep, we had a little visit from Mr Toad and Mrs Owl too! We will definately be coming back for again, this is the best holiday accommodation we have stopped in yet! Thank you! Rachael, Liam and Lily
4th stay at Hideout Lodges,as always exceptional clean and tidy.
Lovely area to stay,coast and other attractions in easy reach. Would highly recommend. Scott and Nicole you should be proud at what you have achieved.
We have stayed in many Sykes properties and this is the best one yet.
The accommodation was perfect and the area itself is stunning. We did luck out with the weather. We highly recommend this property to anyone looking to escape and relax
Just perfect .
.. in every sense of the word ... by a far margin the best lodge me and my now fiance have ever stayed in and we go on these types of holidays regularly .... i will always remember this place as during our stay here me and my girlfriend got engaged ... we definitely hope to return in the future. Thanks Matt and Petra
Our second stay here and it didn’t disappoint.
The place is amazing and a must stay!
Thank you so much for returning to stay with us again – it really means a lot. We’re delighted to hear that Foxes Den didn’t disappoint and that you continue to enjoy it. We’d love to welcome you back for a third stay in the future.
We had a beautiful Christmas away at foxes den.
It felt home from home. Both dogs settled well into the lodge and enjoyed sitting in front of the log burner. Sitting in the hot tub under the stars an added bonus .
Thank you for your wonderful feedback and for spending Christmas at Foxes Den. We’re so pleased it felt like a home from home and that both dogs settled in so well, especially enjoying cosy time by the log burner. Relaxing in the hot tub under the stars really is something special, and we’re delighted it added to your stay. We’d love to welcome you back again in the future.
Return guests and would visit again.
Love this place. Great location and the lodge is beautiful. There is everything you need. Love the hot tub and the chickens, although no eggs this time. Love the new addition of the air fryer. My one piece of constructive criticism is please clean the huge hanging light. It is so gorgeous but those cobwebs need to go. Also visit food 2 remember in malton butchers its amazing! We will be back and cant wait to see what you were building.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback and for choosing to return – it really means a lot to us. We’re delighted you enjoyed the lodge, the hot tub, chickens, and the new air fryer addition. Thank you as well for the helpful note about the hanging light; we’ll make sure this is taken care of promptly so it’s looking its best. We’d love to welcome you back again soon!
lovely modern spacious accommodation which was fully equipped.
very warm reception with a very generous welcome pack. would have liked more comfortable chairs or sofas in the lounge. the situation of the property is quiet and has very attractive surroundings. the photo on the website does not do justice to its aspect. limited headroom in the upstairs bedroom.
We loved our stay at the hideaway, nestled on the edge of a beautiful village.
Plenty of things to do and lots of stunning places to visit.
Fantastic stay at Foxes Den.
Beautiful accommodation, the owners have thought of everything when designing. Comfy beds, gorgeous bathroom & hot tub a real treat! Great location with pub 2 min walk (though disappointing they do not allow dogs even in bar which was a real shame otherwise would have liked to eaten there), pretty villages of Thornton le dale & pickering within 10 mins & coast 25 mins. Hope to return!
Absolutely loved staying at Foxes Den.
My wife and I had a lovely week here. The Lodge has everything you need and is in a stunning part of the country. 10/10. We will be returning.
The Foxes Den was amazing.
It has Everything you need and more. The area that it sits is absolutely breathtaking. We will definitely be back (hopefully next year
Great lodge in a fantastic location on edge of Danby Forest.
One observation, lots of sunshine last week, deck area could do with having a sun umbrella for shade purposes, otherwise 5 star luxury stay, thanks
We loved our stay at foxes den as a family of 4 with a dog, facilities provided were perfect and we will be looking to return in the future
The accommodation and wider facilities are excellent quality.
The owners clearly have a great passion for what they do. We have stayed here on three different occasions and would highly recommend to others, whether it be for a family get away or a couples retreat.
I never thought we would find somewhere as nice as this with a dog in tow.
Absolutely stunning lodge and a welcome hamper was such a lovely touch as were the dog treats. As a family we loved it, my son was devastated to leave his new friends Hettie and Betty. Everywhere is within 20-30 mins drive so location is perfect, we will 100% be back. The only negative I had and it's a small one, was there was no big outdoor dining table I seen one of the other lodges had a big outdoor table so maybe they are in process of putting these in. But let me be clear this lodge is amazing and we will definitely be back we loved it so much, like a home away from home.
Wonderful lodge in beautiful surroundings and ideally located for places to visit.
Loved feeding animals and my dog loved the field above and we liked taking in the view.
We have stayed in a few dog friendly cottages over the last 5/6 years, these cottages and the facilities are excellent, it seems like they have thought though what guests would like and what they would expect and provided exactly that, even down to an air fryer in the kitchen which i have never come across, there really Is too may excellent things to note here, all i can say is this couple have an amazing business model and experiencing them for ourselves i can say they are worth every penny.
First Class experience.
Wonderful property - just as described with lots of lovely special touches to make you feel welcome.
Well equipped too. The location is great for exploring the area and there’s lots to do. Hope to return again.
Fabulous property Great Location.
Fantastic place to chill out for a week Loved being there, relaxing in the hot tub. It was nice having the hens ducks and sheep near the property.
Excellent accommodation in a fabulous setting.
We had a fabulous week and a lovely lodge, the facilities were great and the hot tub was absolutely amazing. The surrounding area is breathtaking with so much to do within a very short drive. We enjoyed our break so much that we are already planning a return visit.
I had an amazing week away.
The lodges and surrounding areas were stunning. I’ll be taking friends and family back
Everything was absolutely perfect, we loved our stay at Foxes Den and will definitely look to come back next year.
Absolutely stunning property would 100%recommend, the villagers were also so very welcoming, every morning seeing the two sheep and chickens on sight was amazing, we visited the mobile fish and chip van in the village they are amazing Nothing had been spared in the welcoming products we received when we arrived ,and every detail for your comfortable stay had been thought about 100% will be back
This is an incredible property as advertised on the site Clean, filled with light and so well equipped, a real home from home Amazing hot tub Absolutely stunning surroundings Friendly sheep and chickens Great hosts Loved it and will return soon
Amazing stay.
Great location and the lodge was even better than the online listing. Definitely recommend.
The property was exactly as advertised and it was clean, comfortable, relaxing and well maintained.
Very well thought through and it’s clear to see that the owners think outside of the box and try to make sure that you have all you will need available at the time and the spares to prevent you from worrying. I would definitely recommend this property and I would
We have stayed in lots of lodges around North Yorkshire and this is by far the best.
This was our second visit and we will be returning soon. The lodge is very well maintained, the facilities are excellent, there is nothing the owners havnt thought of. It's clear to see how much care and hard work goes into these lodges. The surroundings with the field for the dog to run in and the animals to see are a great touch. There's nothing like fresh eggs from the chickens you can feed for breakfast.
We had a fantastic stay at the foxes Den.
This is our second visit after enjoying our first stay so much. We will definitely be back. Keep doing what you are doing as you have an amazing holiday destination..
Incredible location and scenery, great stay and very modern.
Only downside for us was cleanliness, completely appreciate that beds/bedding was clean and fresh towels provided but unfortunately the rest of the place could do with a good clean, huge amount of dead bugs in/around, taps had thick green mould/limescale and unfortunately this was the same for the kettle and coffee machine. Luckily was pans and pots so we boiled water on the hob for a hot drink. Hoover and a mop is also provided in the property so I managed to have a good clean around before my toddler played and relaxed, people should absolutely respect the owners request of taking throws if they would like pets to cuddle as the sete was mud stained and did have dog hair all over. Again hoovered over this wasn’t an issue but people should have respect for owners wishes.
Hello Gosh I’m so incredibly sorry for your experience. I’m absolutely devastated that you had found the lodge in that condition. Typically I would have been on site to check all was perfect before your arrival, unfortunately we was away that week. The lodge was cleaned on Friday, the day before your check in, as we don’t usually have Saturday bookings. The dead bugs/ flys may have fallen during that time, as we have a high fly spray in the apex window to keep that area clean. I can only apologise. We do have hard water in the area, and I usually descale the kettles frequently. But I’ll that take feedback onboard and will replace appliances asap for brand new. Again im very sorry for your experience, although we open our lodges to pets, we usually strive to maintain them as if no pets had used the facilities in between guest stays. Thank you for your honest feedback, and I’ll be sure to take it all onboard right away. Nicole
We had a wonderful stay at fox’s Den.
What I would say is that the main bedroom with such a great view, which was the deciding factor for us choosing the lodge was lacking a little in storage space I.e bedside cabinets and any draws for small items, yes we could have used the 2 nd room downstairs but we wanted to use the feature room, watching the sun rise in the morning through the amazing large window was spectacular. The lodge was very clean and well cared for, beautiful place and yes we would recommend it highly.
Our second visit to Foxes Den, this time to celebrate our Golden Wedding Anniversary,it's still as clean and tidy as ever,the bottle of Prosecco and the hamper was much appreciated.
The added robes were a bonus after being in the hot tub. Would definitely recommend to anyone.
Superb accommodation, finished to the highest standard.
Every detail thought of , we couldn’t have wished for more.
Absolutely gorgeous property!
Our little one loved seeing the chickens every morning and doggies loved the run on the field. The views were amazing. We’ll definitely come back again!
Absolutely fantastic place.
Exactly what I needed. The accommodation was stunning. I enjoyed it that much, I've booked to go again in April for 3 nights.
We had a lovely stay and was very impressed with the lodge, we loved all the little extras that you got on arrival and also loved the idea of the logs and the eggs ( which were very nice) in the hut on site which we made use of.
We had the most wonderful short break at Foxes Den.
The property is beautifully presented with thoughtful touches throughout and is located perfectly for exploring North Yorkshire. The owners have put so much thought into the property and the set up of The Hideout. We’d highly recommend Foxes Den to others and hope to return ourselves soon.
Excellent stay at The Hideout - Foxes Den The lodge has everything you need for a relaxing stress free break.
We will definitely return
Fantastic lodge.
Very well equipped and very modern. Love all the extra touches, hamper, champagne, jigsaws and games. Such a wonderful setting and very peaceful. Would definitely return.
Fabulous accommodation, spotlessly clean and very well equipped.
Lots of small touches that made it exceptionally special. Would highly recommend and will definitely be staying again.
Excellent holiday home,very clean and tidy,all the amenities that you could wish for,the hot tub was a bonus also the hamper was well appreciated.
Set in the ideal location and very secure. If you want a relaxing holiday,this is the place. We loved it that much,that we have booked for next year. This is definitely the best holiday home we have stayed in.
Wonderful lodges and brilliant location.
Luxury is a word banded about a lot today but the Foxes Den definitely is. This is our second visit and we were glad to see the same little touches hadn't be forgotten. We would definitely recommend to anyone who likes a peaceful slice of luxury but maybe not to too many people we still want to be able to get booked in ourselves !!!!
Fantastic property in a great location
What a beautiful place to stay, everything as described, lots of lovely touches and needed nothing more than what was there.
Very clean and comfortable, Hot Tub was a welcome addition after long daily walks in the countryside. Lots of little leaflets and a super little book to pick walks from. Fresh Hens eggs were delicious for breakfast each morning, Nicole the owner is looking to get more to keep up with demand lol. The Dogs loved the little meadow above the lodges, perfect for a little stroll before going out for the day. Very secure as gated. really could not fault this place, the owners have thought of everything and were very accommodating when asking questions etc. we are definitely going back.
Absolutely beautiful lodge in amazing surroundings but in a great location to visit lots of places.
The owners couldn’t have been nicer and we also got to meet their extended family. Fresh eggs from their chickens were amazing. Lodge very tastefully done with lots of attention to detail. Comfy beds and beautifully decorated and furnished. Hot tub was an extra treat.
We all had a really great time at Foxes Den and we'd love to go back again in the future.
It had everything we could ask for and was a perfect relaxing base at the end of each day
Foxes Den exceeded our expectations in every way.
Everything you could need was provided, the lodge was very comfortable and beautifully furnished. The bottle of bubbles chilling in the wine cooler was a lovely bonus! Thank you Nicole and Scott for a lovely week
Perfect in every way.
Everything you need and more
We had a fantastic time at this wonderful lodge.
The owners have thought of everything you could need from a welcome hamper, Prosecco, milk and orange juice, bath robes, a wine cooler fridge and gorgeous toiletries to a bed, towel and bowl for furry friends. We loved watching the horses and chickens and eating their fresh eggs. The beds are extremely comfortable, the walk in shower is fabulous, the roll top bath just luxurious and the enormous hot-tub is the icing on the cake! Fabulous places to visit within half an hour - Thornton Le Dale and Pickering are local and lovely, Staithes, Whitby, Robin Hood’s Bay and Scarborough are approximately 35 minutes drive away. We had two lovely lunches at the Fox and Rabbit pub which is highly recommended as is this superb lodge.
Fantastic holiday home, beautiful and comfortable!
Everything we needed was there, from the porchway for shoes and coats to scissors and matches! We all loved it, would go back and fully recommend to anyone! Fab location too
We stayed 4 nights in the Foxes Den, and from the moment we entered the lodge we were so impressed.
The lodge is very spacious open plan. Has a kitchen with all you need. The main bedroom has a huge comfy bed then on the top floor there is another bedroom with unsuite and amazing views. It was so amazing to come to the lodge after walking all day in the North York National Park and relax in the hot tub and then light the wood burner and Chill watching TV. Nicole and Scott were always in communication making sure everything was alright. Also the touches of a bottle of bubbles once we arrived was really nice and also having fresh eggs for breakfast from the hens next to the lodge. The lodge is in good distance to all sight seeing places. I would recommend to anyone to stay in the Foxes Den and enjoy an amazing experience.
Great place to stay.
Very modern. Felt very welcoming with orange wine and milk provided and a personal welcome message on the little blackboard. hot tub was brilliant. Loads of space in main bedroom for luggage. So glad dogs allowed.
Fantastic accommodation, beautiful setting!
Loved everything about it, will definitely recommend to family snd friends
EXCELLENT PLACE TO GO THANKS AGAIN ANDREW.
We couldn’t have asked for more!
This holiday was a dream come true. The lodge was beautiful, the area breathtaking. We had everything we needed for a truly luxury holiday, from the welcome goodies to the high quality accessories. The lodge was warm and inviting. The log fire was so cosy and the hot tub was the icing on the cake. We will certainly be heading back in the new year! Thank you for making us feel so welcome.
Beautiful Lodge situated in a small village with easy access to the Moors and Coastal towns.
The Hot Tub was great and relaxing after a busy day touring. The Cleanliness and Facilities were spot on and the little touches were appreciated. The field at the back was great to exercise our dog. Would definitely recommend to family and friends.
Foxes Den is a wonderful place to stay, beautiful furnishings and extremely clean!
Super kingsize bed is sooo comfortable, also a great bath and shower. The welcome pack is a lovely touch and the bottle of bubbly was great in the fabulous hot tub. We also had fresh eggs for breakfast. Nicole and Scott should be very proud of the homes that they have created, we will definitely be returning!
We had an Outstanding time at the Hideaway.
The accommodation was better then we expected and extremely clean. The lodges are extremely well equip and very comfortable. We had such a relaxing time, we didn't want to leave. There are some lovely pubs in the surrounding area and great dog walks. We only spoke to Nicole and scott by text but they were lovely and accommodating. A special mention to Scott (I think it was Scott) who pointed out my flat tire and provided a pump to help us get on our way. 5 star luxury and we will be back next year.
We are so pleased you had a great stay and would love to welcome you back anytime. We hope you had a safe journey home. :) Thanks Scott & Nicole
Absolutely fantastic accommodation.
We love what the owners have created and will definitely be back. 5 stars plus !
Thank you very much for taking the time to leave lovely feedback. Much appreciated. We hope to see you again soon.
Brilliant lodge.
We had a great time. Everything high quality, great hot tub, the bed was very comfortable. The extras put in by the hosts were really nice, milk, fresh orange, eggs, bottle of bubbly all added to make this a special place. The biggest disappointment was that we had to leave!! We will be booking again if you could leave us a space!!
Thank you so much for lovely feedback. We would be delighted to welcome you back again. Take care Scott & Nicole x
What an amazing place and location.
Had everything we need for our trip away with the child and dog. Beautifully finished and equipped and internally and externally. If we are back in the area again we will defiantly come back.
Thank you very much :) We would love to welcome you again anytime. Scott & Nicole x
An amazing lodge finished to a high standard, all needs catered from, even the dogs had a towel
Absolute immaculate holiday cottage.
Very comfortable and lovely treats left as a welcome package.
Thank you very much :) Hope to see you again in the future. Scott & Nicole x
Gorgeous place and it’s attention to detail is amazing !
Everything you need is catered for! BBQ, indoor and outdoor sound system, all amenities in a beautiful place. Great for dogs with the forest walk just a few steps away with a field also to exercise your dog . Even has dog bed , treats , poo bags etc . The owners were lovely but not intrusive and left you to enjoy your holiday but we’re there and introduce themselves and asked if everything ok and if we need anything let them know , very nice personal touch . Flies were a problem in the lodge but then again we were there in the heatwave so not sure if that is normal and would hate to make that comment to put people off as the place is soo good and would highly recommend ! Hot tub is fab and local pub is literally next door. Would highly recommend going to the hide out and can’t wait to go back !
Thank you so much for taking the time to write such lovely feedback :) I apologies you experienced the pesky flies, they were particularly bad in the heatwave, we have tried multiple ways of stopping them hovering around the glass windows, we think we have cracked it with an automatic spray diffuser. We would love to welcome you back anytime :) Thank you Scott & Nicole
Had a great stay here!
! Wow. Lovely place, very well equipped, with a very thoughtful welcome on arrival.
Thank you very much for your kind feedback, we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Thanks Scott & Nicole
The lodges are beautiful and are in a lovely setting.
We recieved a warm welcome from the hosts and enjoyed our week in Yorkshire. The lodges are great for dogs and the hot tub is a perfect way to end the day.
Thank you very much for the wonderful feedback, we are delighted you enjoyed your stay. Hope to welcome you again in the future. Thanks again Scott & Nicole
Fox’s Lodge was an amazing find for us very tastefully furnished with everything you need to enjoy a break, The lodge brings you away from the busyness of life and offers a peaceful setting that we felt truly relaxed from when we arrived home .
The family who own the lodge really appear to care that you have everything you need and have a fabulous time. We will definitely return soon x
Thank you Tina for such lovely feedback. It’s very much appreciated :) We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay, hope to see you again. Thank Scott & Nicole
Very modern and stylish lodge.
The personal touches on arrival made it very special. Would highly recommend staying here. Plenty to do and visit in the surrounding areas.
