Gallon House must have one of the most scenic locations in Knaresborough, overlooking the river, the ruined castle and the stone railway bridge, which can be admired from two of the three bedrooms, or the balcony. We chose it for a Silver Wedding Anniversary treat and were delighted with its understated elegance, relaxed atmosphere and cuisine. Rick spoiled us with... more

We only got to spend 1 night at Gallon House and would have liked to spend longer here. We booked a double room with dinner and it was a nice touch when the owners got in touch to ask about our food preferences. Unfortunately when we arrived a week or 2 later they weren't expecting us to eat with them.... more

We have just spent a heavenly four days at Gallon House and there are not enough superlatives to use in describing our stay! It is one of the loveliest places owned by two exceptionally nice people and a lovely dog.. Rick and Sue could not have been more welcoming and just generally lovely. Our room was perfect, the views unbelievably... more

We have just returned from 3 nights of bliss at the wonderful Gallon House. This is a dream of a B&B - quite simply the best place we have ever stayed. The house itself is beautiful, with equal measures of charm and quirkiness and views to die for (there surely cannot be a better vista of Knaresborough than from Gallon... more

We had a one-night stay at Gallon House....really wished we'd had longer! It is a stunningly beautiful house in a breath-taking location. Rick, our host was attentive and charming and looked after us wonderfully. His menu was thoughtful and delicious and beautifully presented. For a hotel, this place is private and homely and very individual. This was a very special... more

I cannot praise Gallon House enough. It seems that every little detail was thought about. On our arrival we were greeting by Rick, the extremely friendly owner (with his wife Sue) and a pot of tea with freshly baked biscuits, while we sat in the conservatory overlooking the stunning views of Knaresborough Castle and the River Nidd - we were... more

From the moment of arrival to our reluctant departure next day staying at Gallon House was a delight. Rick's warm greeting and instantly provided tea and simnel cake gave us hints of the delights to come at dinner and at breakfast next day. Our room was immaculate, comfortable and had a stunning view of the river and the viaduct. Every... more

I stayed here the night before my wedding and it was a very relaxing place. A couple of friends stayed with me and we were sitting having some drinks in the sitting room in front of the fire and it was very easy to forget you were in a hotel. The hotlel has a wonderful view over the river. The... more

From my first e-mail enquiry to our saying goodbye to the Gallon House was an absolute pleasure. If you want top quality attention, first class food and drink and views to die for, then this is the place to stay when visiting Yorkshire. Thank you Rick and Sue, my wife and I had a lovely one night getaway more
