Took the scenic route from Gateshead and visited Richmond , Aysgarth Falls , Grassington and Thirsk on the way . Had a couple of beers in the beer garden , freshened up then a gorgeous meal in the orangery. So glad we had booked as they were turning people away ! The staff were excellent- friendly , courteous and attentive. Lovely relaxing night away , helped by the English heatwave . ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/a568f483-871c-4366-880d-6ee832d11878-1752389716572.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d75347ae-0401-481f-9272-eb5efdc0091b-1752389715391.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/02e364a5-8b1b-4f1b-b225-5d1a6bea0a3b-1752389711374.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5104b629-86b6-4985-aa75-223ac1672371-1752389666537.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### A Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### James 25 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely pub, room and food Gorgeous little pub in the heart of North Yorkshire.

Food is really good. Service is excellent. Only issue this time was someone clearly had too much to drink in the village and people were shouting in the early hours of the morning. This woke me and i struggled to get back to sleep, but nothing to do with the inn. ##### Paul Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joe 11 Nov 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Another Night Away Very Friendly Staff.

Such a peaceful location, very nicely appointed bedrooms, great menu choice in the evening and at breakfast - all was very very good. Of course a hotel cannot be successful simply by nature of its nicely appointed public areas - it needs great staff - and everyone we met during our two night stay was without exception a credit to the business. We hope to return soon. ##### Joyce Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### colin 27 Nov 2022 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities nice room and nothing was to much trouble ##### colin Stayed 1 night in Nov 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Eugene 19 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Very nice srat Room was really good and comfortable. Overlooked car park. Excellent bath/shower room. Didnt have evening meal as hotel had hen or stag party booked in. Also as I have limited appetite choice was restricted. Overall would certainly recommend staying here also dog friendly so daughters family could bring their dog and all atebrsakfast together ##### Eugene Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ronald 4 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Stopped for an overnight whilst visiting Castle Howard and York. Would stay again but not in the room we had (#12) as the access isn’t the best - I’m 6’ 3” and the entrance door is only about 5’ 2”. In fairness there’s no way of making it taller without extensive rework of the roof and there isn’t a headroom concern once inside the room that was lovely. The food, both in the evening and at breakfast, was excellent. Very nice complimentary chocolates in the room too. ##### Ronald Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Robert 22 Sept 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The worst nightmare imaginable. I am allergic to dogs and other animals. I had a very unpleasant night – I believe a dog had stayed in that room. When we arrived we couldn’t find a parking space in the Fairfax’s car park. Private residents have placed traffic cones outside of their houses on the street opposite. – it looks like some form of dispute is in ongoing. I did not want to leave my car overnight on the street in case my tyres were let down or bodywork was scratched. Room no 4 is directly above a “smoker’s den” and as the windows were open the room was stinking of smoke. On departing a member of staff was insistent that I had not paid the bill. To avoid embarrassment I paid £120. So I had paid twice. ##### Robert Stayed 1 night in Sep 2022 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Crown Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Crown-Hotel.h7994084.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure York Fairfield Manor Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Mercure-York-Fairfield-Manor-Hotel.h17905.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sidings](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Sidings.h18157901.Hotel-Information) > > [Newburgh House Bed & Breakfast](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Newburgh-House-Bed-Breakfast.h4329341.Hotel-Information) > > [Brickfields Farm](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Brickfields-Farm.h6120838.Hotel-Information) > > [University of York, James College - Campus Accommodation](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-University-Of-York.h30551433.Hotel-Information) > > [The Lime Tree Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Lime-Tree-Inn.h57571579.Hotel-Information) > > [The George Hotel Easingwold](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-George-At-Easingwold.h4001926.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Oak Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Royal-Oak-Hotel.h15811414.Hotel-Information) > > [Kings Head Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Kings-Head-Hotel.h1383603.Hotel-Information) > > [The Durham Ox](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Durham-Ox.h2275866.Hotel-Information) > > [Hollicarrs - Honeycomb Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Hollicarrs-Honeycomb-Lodge.h45364920.Hotel-Information) > > [The Feathers Hotel, Helmsley, North Yorkshire](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Feathers-Hotel.h14889397.Hotel-Information) > > [Feversham Arms Hotel & Verbena Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Feversham-Arms-Hotel-Verbena-Spa.h8107242.Hotel-Information) > > [Orchard Lodge, Exclusive Log Cabin, York riverside village 2m P+R, 4m city walls](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Orchard-Lodge.h22195615.Hotel-Information) > > [Lastingham Grange](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Lastingham-Grange.h2798553.Hotel-Information) > > [Plum and Partridge Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Plum-And-Partridge-Inn.h19143770.Hotel-Information) > > [Sandburn Hall Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Sandburn-Hall-Hotel.h67360173.Hotel-Information) > > [The Crown Inn, Roecliffe](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Crown-Inn.h31935976.Hotel-Information) > > [The Bay Horse Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Bay-Horse-Inn.h17334089.Hotel-Information) > > [YHA Helmsley - Hostel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-YHA-Helmsley-Hostel.h12880411.Hotel-Information) > > [The Parsonage Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Parsonage-Hotel-Spa.h554901.Hotel-Information) > > [Aldwark Manor Estate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Aldwark-Manor-Estate.h796069.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Oak Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Royal-Oak-Inn.h6942092.Hotel-Information) > > [The Black Swan - The Inn Collection Group](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Black-Swan-At-Helmsley.h22461.Hotel-Information) > > [The Forresters Arms Kilburn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Forresters-Arms-Kilburn.h4190797.Hotel-Information) > > [Yorkway Motel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Yorkway-Motel.h23470003.Hotel-Information) > > [Ye Olde Red Lion](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Ye-Olde-Red-Lion.h9242958.Hotel-Information) > > [The Crown - Hutton le Hole](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Crown.h39483554.Hotel-Information)
