“In Skipton, this establishment strikes a pleasant balance as both a comfortable hotel and a lively pub, close to the town center. I noted its appeal to families, with specific amenities, and its convenient access to both transport links and attractions like Skipton Castle. While some rooms might feel dated, the inclusive breakfast and welcoming staff contribute to a stay that emphasizes value.”

A Balanced Stay
friendly stafftasty breakfastpleasant gentlemansmall roomclaustrophobic spaceincorrect description
The staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was hot and tasty. The gentleman who served breakfast was pleasant. I had an evening meal one night, steak night. The food was lovely and well worth the money.
One of the rooms booked as a king size was smaller than expected. It felt a bit claustrophobic and hot. Luckily, a fan was in the room. I spoke to the owner who indicated that it was the correct room despite the description.
