We went along to the Bay Horse to try out the new menu and were thoroughly delighted with our food. My husband had the homemade steak pie served with 3 kinds of fresh vegetables plus potato wedges or real chips. I had the lasagne served with baby leaf and mixed pepper salad with a drizzle of dressing and toasted ciabatta... More

We stayed here just for one night (unfortunately) the room was very clean, a wonderful shower and comfortable (Huge) bed. We will be back at some point. The breakfast was amazing. The rest of our party stayed elsewhere in the village and were very disappointed.

My wife and I stayed here on the 12th and 13th March and from start to finish we had a lovely time. The bar was full of, presumably, locals when we arrived. (always a good sign !) so we sat down to enjoy a drink close to the lovely welcoming fire. Then up some steep stairs to our warm and... More

We stayed at the Bay Horse on 14th & 15th March and had a great time. Don't know what the previous reviewer was complaining about - granted we paid an upgrade for the superior room which was excellent - but even allowing for this it was a really friendly pub with fantastic food, a wonderful atmosphere and really hard working...

We had to fight to get through the pub to the bar to make them aware of our arrival. We were shown up a stairs and warned of wet paint and that our heating may have been messed with. We travelled up steep narrow steps to our room in the attic. The door opened and I could have cried. Cheap,... More

Really sorry your stay was an unpleasant one. We do try to treat and look after every one who visits masham and the bay the best we can. We inherited the bay horse some six years ago with its rooms and it was a dead and cold place totally run down with no atmosphere. With it being a pub co... More

We've just come back from a two night stay at The Bay Horse and had a fantastic time. This is a proper pub with proper beer and proper food - and best of all properly nice people, staff and locals alike. Our room was small but perfectly formed, the most important thing being that the bed was very comfortable. If... More

I absolutely LOVED this place. We were a bit disappointed the owners weren't there as we had read so much about their friendliness and were looking forward to meeting them, but the people in charge in their absence were all friendly. A girl showed us our room and made sure everything was ok with it ( instead of just giving... More

We stayed self catering in Masham. We discovered this pub on our 1st night. The food was brilliant. The real chips best ever. The beer perfect. The staff were friendly and efficient. Locals friendly too. It is very cosy. As the Bay Horse is dog friendly it gets all the dog lovers and walkers chatting. The toilets were in very... More
