We stayed as a couple with our dog Jack, for 5 nights in mid May. Paul the owner and his entire team made our stay one of the most enjoyable hotel visits we have had anywhere in the UK, we are already planning a return visit. The menu was different each evening and the food was excellent throughout our stay... More

Was really worth it to see the finished bedrooms. Very comfortable and very good beds. As ever, the food was really good. I think I overheard someone say the chef was new, he's certainly doing a good job.

I've been staying at The Fat Lamb once or twice a year for the past three years now on my way home from Scotland. Paul, the landlord, is a friendly host, along with Angela on reception. The rooms are clean and bright, warm and cosy, and the bar is characterful. The food, however, is exceptional. Delicious, well cooked, fresh local... More

Stunning country pub in the heart of Ravenstonedale. Coal fires, real ales, genuine people and amazing food. recommend the restaurant highly and the local ales. The pub also has a small village store annexed to it and it is full of local produce. The service is also excellent as is the decor. Lovely beer garden too

Just enjoyed a one- night break at this hidden treasure. We have visited before but wanted to come again and see what the new decor was like. Fortunately the new decor has not taken the charm away from the fat lamb, it is still as welcoming,comforting and warm as always. The new chef produced a meal which was sublime the... More

My husband and I spent a lovely two days at the Fat Lamb as a short break in early spring. We received a warm welcome and were shown to our room promptly. The room was nicely furnished with a touch of modern fittings while retaining the character of a very old building. The bed was really comfortable and ensured a... More

We have just enjoyed an excellent weekend stay at The Fat Lamb. A great location for walking and touring. Excellent standard of recently re-furbished accommodation; and a wide choice of great food provided in a warm and friendly atmosphere. The Fat Lamb does 'what it says on the tin' and all at good value. We will be back! Ian S

We chose the hotel as it offered a dog-friendly room in the Yorkshire Dales / Lake District region. We had a room which was clean fresh and well set-up for the dogs we'd brought along. The Fat Lamb welcomes dogs into the bar and we really appreciated the touch of setting a place for us there both breakfast times so... More

About 40 or so Mg F/TF owners descended on the Fat Lamb for our lunch on 10Th March 2012, although pre-booked the service was excellent and the food was great and all served at the same time and very tasty indeed. Thank You.

We have travelled all over the country staying in many different hotels but the Fat Lamb remains a firm favourite. We have just returned from a 3 night stay and we thought it would be nice to let others know how good it is. The bedrooms have all been refitted and are very comfortable, the upgraded plumbing with new shower... More
