The smoke-free hotel offers the à la carte restaurant serving British specialities. Gastronomic options include an English bar.
“This charming 17th-century coaching inn, nestled in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, offers a delightful escape with its locally sourced meals and cozy atmosphere. The property particularly stands out for its dog-friendly accommodations and warm hospitality, making it ideal for families and pet owners alike seeking a countryside retreat; I think the open-plan living areas with log burners create a truly welcoming ambiance after a day exploring Malham Cove and Janet's Foss waterfall. It's a place where traditional Yorkshire charm meets modern comforts.”
