Welcome to Raywell Country Lodge Park, a peaceful retreat set in the scenic grounds of a 19th-century manor in the Yorkshire Wolds. It’s an ideal escape for couples, families, and groups of friends seeking space, comfort, and relaxation.

Raywell is ideally located for exploring East Yorkshire. The historic town of Beverley is just a short drive away, while the East Yorkshire coast offers beaches and scenic walks.

They think of everything for the dogs from treats and doggie poo bags to a tepid pet wash outside, gave my dog a bath in it, perfect! The lodge had everything you needed for a great stay from arcade machine to pool and table tennis table to the amazing outside space which is safe and secure for your dogs. It's amazing cant recommend enough.

Overall we had a nice time but our elderly Collie couldn't enjoy the garden as she couldn't manage the steps too steep for her we had to always walk her round she wasn't free to go out on her own which.was sad .
