Good pub hotel, excellent staff, would stay again

We stayed at this pub hotel with friends from the US. We were all travelling around UK and this stop was to see a bit of Yorkshire. This hotel is near York and not far from a Park and Ride which was very useful to get into York itself (York is a wonderful city to visit). We also visited Pickering and Whitby as well as the North York Moors. So the location of this hotel was very good for all those visits. We were made very welcome by the staff and enjoyed their breakfasts each morning we were there.

Great owner and service

Check-in was very low profile - just collect your key (and check-out) in the restaurant. Food was some of the best we ate in a 14-day UK trip and all the staff were very friendly. Beds and room temperature were comfortable and huge handicap-room shower offered excellent accessibility for our elderly relative (no high-step-up into a narrow shower stall). Location is easily accessible yet quiet with lovely views of private garden/grassy area with tables.

Very pleasant stay

Whatever was lacking in the condition was offset by the food and the staff. Although located on the highway, the rooms were in the back and there was very little noise. Our room had a view of the garden which was very nice.

Hotel price for motel quality ?

Room was ok with good shower, but I did not think it was worth £110 a night. Bed was a bit lumpy and carpet was a little grubby. B'fast was fine but again, carpet in b'fast room was a bit smelly. Considering the location outside York, I felt this was a bit expensive for what was on offer

Great place to stay just outside the City.

Excellent home cooked food, but a limited menu. No snacks or salads on offer. Clean room and welcoming staff made for a pleasant stay. Great English breakfast, very tasty!!! Sundy gets busy as the sunday roast was amazing.

The hotel was basically a pub with rooms totally staff run - but very well. Rooms were of a reasonable size but clean and reasonably comfortable. There were some things that needed closer attention to detail to make it "perfect" . Shower room needs some work as has mold in corners, shower leaked and got floor wet Pub food was good and plentiful and reasonably priced
