Upon arrival late afternoon we were told by a young boy who was washing the kitchen floor that the owner wasn't there, that he'd gone to his father's funeral and that he'd be back later that evening but that he didn't know when. The boy himself was going to leave us at around 6 and we could have dinner at... more

We booked this hotel as a treat after reading the superb feedback on trip advisor. The owner of this hotel cancelled our booking a day before we were due to go and 2 weeks after we booked. He did not have the courtesy to tell us himself, the first I knew about it was when the owner of a nearby... more

From our bedroom window there was a wondrous view of the Swalesdale countryside.Before dinner we were invited into the small... more

It's all been said, this is a treasure of a place in a wonderful location with a charming host. We ate in one night and the food was excellent home cooking. The second and third nights we ate out at an inn down the road and another night in Leyburn and both were really good too. Nothing is to much... more

Lovely house and super bedrooms. They've spent money on quality fittings especially the beds. Had a great evening meal shared with other guests around a single table. We weren't sure about this but actually had an excellent evening. We will be staying there again. There's even a trampoline in the garden if you've any energy left after a day walking... more

We were looking for a "quick getaway" for a couple of nights. Although not too far from us, the drive was well worth it. We were greeted by Roger as if we were long-lost friends and treated like this at all times. The room we stayed in (room 5) has a spa bath and amazing shower...well worth the extra! Lots... more
