A gem in the Yorkshire Dales, amazing food and we love the "Chocolate Room". Thanks for all the great meals we have enjoyed, we will see you soon. On our last visit we checked into the Chocolate room at 3pm after an exhilarating drive the long way through the dales. We settled into our room by watching a 3D Film... More

While on holiday near by, we went to the Wensleydale Heifer last night for a meal. Noticed the place earlier in the day when driving through en-route to Hawes. Had not booked but was shown to a nice table in the restaurant & in no time at all the restaurant became very busy with every table filled. We were absolutely... More

I went with my son to celebrate his offer of a place at uni. It was long drive for us - 4 hour round trip, but it was worth it! We have been before and of course had high expectations and I certainly wasn't disappointed. I had the lobster, prepared in 3 ways and it was the best meal I... More

The menu choice was excellent. The Tian of Whitby Crab and Gravadlax was delicious as... More

Went here for Sunday lunch on a day out in the Yorkshire Dales. It was a perfect Sunday lunch experience from the pint of Black Sheep to the Dessert. Excellent cooking with great local ingredients and the portions were certainly enough for most appetites. Starters were crabcakes and I had duck confit spring rolls both served with a micro salad...

I stumbled on this place whilst looking for somewhere to stop of to break up a tedious journey. The decor and themes in the hotel are fabulous. My food was delicious however my partner had the recommended 'Fish and Chips' Giant portion and there were patches of the batter that were not cooked so it was very off putting. Don't... More

We stayed in the Champagne Room for one night at the end of March. Weather was great so once we had checked in (late afternoon) we sat on the terrace and sipped our champers. The staff could not have been more polite or attentive, excellent service. We ate in the restaurant on the night and the food was superb. Our... More
