An excellent stay at The Poplars in Poppys lodge. Amanda was a great host and so easy to communicate with. The Poplars is in a lovely spot with countryside right on the doorstep. The lodge had everything we needed and beds were very comfy. Lovely and clean. Will definitely be back if in this part of Yorkshire again.

Amanda was very warm and welcoming upon our arrival and throughout our stay. Marie was very welcoming and both accommodated our vegan dietary needs for breakfast and gave us oat milk for morning teas. The hospitality was superb and we felt very comfortable throughout our stay. The Rydale room was spacious, warm, and superbly clean throughout - no sight of mould or limescale in the ensuite, which cannot be said of most chain hotels. Our vegan full English breakfast was lovely and the right portion to get us started for hikes in the Moors and the nearby quaint Thirsk town centre. We enjoyed our stay at The Poplars and would highly recommend to others.

Very Comfortable

Just outside of Thirsk in a nice quiet area. Local pub in walking distance with a Tesco and Aldi just 3 minutes drive. Thirsk itself has a choice of food styles but book early. The cottage had everything we needed and was extremely comfortable. Will defiantly stay again.

Excellent location for exploring North Yorkshire

A very warm welcome from Amanda who was amazing throughout the stay.she explained where local highlights were and made us feel so welcome. The room was spacious and extremely comfortable with everything we needed for our stay. The room was decorated beautifully and was spotless. Breakfasts were extremely nice using local ingredients where possible. Overall excellent value for money and supporting a local business by staying here which appeals to me. If in the area again will definitely stay here.

Great spot for a quiet place to stay

I had a lovely stay in one of the cottages with my two children - i was originally booked into a room in the B&B but wow the cottage turned out to be a better bet with two young children! it was really well appointed, beautifully comfortable beds, thoughtful kitchen equipment and (very importantly) the TV was logged to Amazon etc for the kids! Amanda was very welcoming, and a great host.
