We're happy we could meet your expectations! Have a great day  Graham Robson Local Guide·45 reviews·14 photos 7 months ago £10–20 Popped in for lunch whilst shopping in Gargrave, we were not disappointed. The food was excellent with a great choice to suit everyone and their tastes.

I loved everything

Friendly staff, nice clean room perfect size with a nice shower, choice of tea or coffee machine, breakfast was really good with a choice for options, good location to other areas. They gave us 2 bottles of Prosecco for our anniversary too <3 It was a great base and we would definitely return. (But maybe with a rear hotel room)

We had a road side bedroom- the traffic was noticeable from 4am, when going to bed the pub was noisy however they did last orders at 10:45 so soon quietened down. Bed could of done with a little bigger (we knew it was a double room but forgot how little a double bed would fee was when your use to a king) But It was perfect for what we wanted.

The rooms were well appointed, modern, and clean. It exceeded other experiences that we have had we en-suite facilities. The food was delicious. Portion sizes at breakfast were very generous. The dinner menu had a large variety. The evening pub atmosphere was lively, and we had lovely weather to be able to enjoy the alfresco beer garden. This was a gem of an experience

Vehicle traffic is heavy during the day because it sits on the major thoroughfare through Gargrave. However, the location was very convenient for us to visit family and the local attractions. So all in all there really was not any drawbacks.

Really everything was just lovely, everything you needed, perfect room, facilities, upkeep and standards. The breakfast was great, we ate in the restaurant and food was very good. Parking was easy and all the staff nice and helpful. Fan in the room, we needed it so we were grateful for that. The glazing on the windows guaranteed no noise. extremely happy with our stay, we would recommend and stay again.

Only tiny recommendations because we loved our stay. Would have been nice to have some bottled water in the room. A breakfast menu, even if only tiny. Sugar on the breakfast table in the morning. Some sauce bottles were empty. Like i said tiniest things certainly not a deal breaker.

We had a large tastefully decorated bedroom It was immediately apparent that the room had undergone a recent renovation, reflecting a high standard. The mini fridge was a convenient addition for keeping our beverages chilled. Nice to have a bath rather than a shower with lots of warm water. Large comfortable bed. Our room overlooked the beer garden. The treble-glazed window ensured that our peace was undisturbed by outside noise. Plenty of free onsite parking space. As pet owners, we were particularly appreciative of the hotel’s pet-friendly policy, with only a nominal £20 additional charge for our dog. All the staff who were very friendly and made a fuss of our dog. The evening meal was good, and breakfast freshly cooked to order. The proximity of a Co-op store just a few minutes’ walk away was incredibly convenient for picking up snacks and essentials. We would stay here again.

Good location in pub/ restaurant within easy reach of Skipton and many local attractions and areas of interest. Lovely well equipped bedroom with compact en-suite bathroom. Very clean and comfortable all round with well positioned wall mounted TV. Although located on the main road through the village the room was very quiet with no noise from the bar, restaurant or road.

Finding a parking space was a bit difficult despite having quite a large car park due to the number of pub users with no allocated parking for hotel guests. Breakfast was okay but it was not made clear that it was charged on an itemised basis which incurred additional charges if items from the “continental” menu and “full English” menu were chosen.

The staff were extremely friendly and couldn’t do enough to help. I arrived late due to work and the kitchen was closed but was offered a freshly made sandwich of my choice which was very good of them, I was also leaving early, before breakfast started but was also offered a pot of porridge and toast before original opening times. The room was spotless and very comfortable and good water pressure in the shower with a lovely coffee machine and good condiments. Had the best nights sleep I’ve had in ages and wish I had arrived earlier to try the award winning pies in the restaurant. Great beers and cider on tap if I was local it would be my go to and if I’m ever in the area again it would be a no brainer on where I’d like to stay, highly recommend!

Bedroom was very well furnished and decorated. Excellent shower. Enjoyed a delicious Sunday roast lunch - very friendly staff

We booked this hotel as it was” dog friendly “. No mention of extra charge ( £20 for a small dog) until after we had made the non cancellable booking. This seemed a lot to pay without justification- hotel said it was because the room is deep cleaned after a dog… surely all rooms are deep cleaned! If they’ve had previous bad experiences, it would be better to charge more for pets on a refundable deposit basis.

This pub is perfect in every way. I got held up driving there from Cornwall and didn’t arrive until nearly midnight. Last check-in is supposed to be 10pm and I was panicking, however Julie the manager volunteered to stay on and let me in. That was really above and beyond and I am so grateful to her. After my nightmare journey, I was delighted to find a beautifully clean and extremely comfortable room. It seems bonkers to mention the pillows, but they were excellent, as was the bed itself. A fantastic modern bathroom too with a huge rainfall shower. Breakfast the next morning was a massive bacon butty made by Julie. I could have had the full Yorkshire, but a doorstep washed down with a mug of tea was a perfect start to the day for me. I paid just £68 pounds for this brilliant night’s stay and first class service. I will definitely be back.

Nothing.

Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful - they gave us tips on where to visit in nearby Skipton - and breakfast was wonderful as well as quick. The whole place had obviously been renovated fairly recently and just seemed very modern and cosy. I was also impressed that the manager called us before our stay to warn us about flooding in the area and to explain that the flood had affected their kitchen a little. We weren’t planning on eating there in the evening as we had friends in the area but I thought it was very considerate to let us know well in advance of our arrival of what to expect.
