    Lovely pub with accommodation in the centre of the tiny village of Malham so great walks are right on the doorstep. Our room, number 14 in the adjoining cottage, was super spacious and clean with all the facilities you could need. Choice of pillows, eye masks and earplugs, coffee, tea and homemade shortbread, comfy sofa, power shower over bath and heated towel rail. Very quiet nights sleep which was appreciated after our walk. We ate dinner in the dining room too, two perfectly trimmed and cooked steaks served with some of the nicest chips we've ever had. And I can recommend the sticky toffee pudding too! The next morning we were seated again in the dining room, there was a very generous breakfast buffet, and a choice of cooked breakfasts, lovely cafetieres of coffee and toaat cooked to order. Without exception all of the staff were smily upbeat chatty and helpful. Thank you so much for our amazing stay ListerArms, we'll be back! …
