Check arrival times

Pub was closed due to staffing shortage when we arrived. Had to wait an hour to be let in. Manager was very apologetic but it made us late for a meal we had booked.

I can't really fault it. The property is nice, staff were really nice, the room was just what we hoped for. We had a lovely evening meal followed by a good nights sleep. Breakfast options were all cooked options, although I'm not a breakfast eater so only had some toast.

Excellent accommodation in a beautiful village

I have stayed here before and the whole experience is good so I keep coming back. The food is very good and the Mason's Yorkshire Gin and Tonic is a work of art. The Forrester's is located in a beautiful village close to the White Horse carved into the hillside. Mouseman furniture is right next door and is also worth a visit.

Excellent stay. Staff are lovely, food was superb. The only little thing I would mention is that the room was very cold even though the heating was on but this was an unusually cold spell and therefore the heating may have just struggled a little.

The property, staff, in this rural pub/hotel was outstanding. I would highly recommend it. Food and pub were excellent. It was a most pleasant stay. Kilburn was historic, and the near by town (6 miles away) Thirsk was also a neat pleasant village with shopping and the town is where a TV show is produced, and it is a short train ride to York.

This is a lovely pub with fantastic rooms. It is in a stunning location and the owners and all staff were very friendly and could not do enough for us during our stay. The bedroom was very comfortable, cosy decor and immaculately clean and with lots of little touches to make your stay perfect. The breakfast is fantastic - lots of options but I would recommend the full Yorkshire (although you may struggle to finish as they do not skimp on portions !!!) A Fabulous stay.

Fantastic spot with great rooms and hospitality

Fantastic B&B pub. We booked the day of our stay as a last minute treat. We will definitely be coming back again. Staff are wonderful and inviting, breakfast is fantastic, rooms are lovely and well maintained. We took our two year old daughter and she loved it. She was made really welcome and catered for. We were in the pub with her having dinner until 10pm and no one made us feel unwelcome with her. Thank you so much for our stay!

Can’t get better than this

It’s not often you award a hotel 10/10. It’s as good as you’re ever going to get. The two telephone calls prior to my arrival, the welcome upon arrival and the lovely food was spot on. Comfortable in a really quiet and pleasant village with car parking right in the square outside the pub door. You pre-order your breakfast the night before from an extensive menu.
