Lovely stay

The room was clean and well stocked, beautifully decorated and comfortable. However, it was very small. We had a bath in the bathroom which was lovely and the bathroom itself was sufficiently spacious.

The location in Thirsk was good for exploring Herriot life. Proprietors were helpful and very kind. The sink was very plugged. You have to carry suitcases up many stairs, depending on your floor

Rooms were small but very well furnished and good value for money, very clean and the bed was comfy. Hotel is in a great location, especially for the races. Staff were very friendly. There was no receptionist on our arrival, a note advised us to see the bar staff, but they were extremely busy, so this wasn't ideal.
