Lovely break away
Cashed in some one key points for night away . Took the scenic route from Gateshead and visited Richmond , Aysgarth Falls , Grassington and Thirsk on the way . Had a couple of beers in the beer garden , freshened up then a gorgeous meal in the orangery. So glad we had booked as they were turning people away ! The staff were excellent- friendly , courteous and attentive. Lovely relaxing night away , helped by the English heatwave .

Somewhere I keep going back to
Been here 3/4 times, and looking forward to next stay. Food is really good. Service is excellent. Only issue this time was someone clearly had too much to drink in the village and people were shouting in the early hours of the morning. This woke me and i struggled to get back to sleep, but nothing to do with the inn.

Shame about the heating.
This was a second visit to this hotel for us. As we were meeting friends to celebrate early Christmas at Castle Howard. The hotel is well located, with an excellent chef and food menu. The staff are all helpful and friendly. The rooms are a reasonable size, with good ensuite facilities, and comfortable bed. However both our rooms suffered with heating problems, one with a cold radiator and the other with a leaky and cold radiator and we were advised to use the plug in radiators provided but not till after we had queried the situation. Our friends had to ask to move rooms due to the leak. This was all done easily but it was a disappointment to us that it appeared to be a known problem and we'd still been given these rooms. Such a shame when it is a lovely old inn in a beautiful village setting.
