The establishment is a carvery that does sunday roasts from Thursday to Sunday. I did not check this detail ahead of time and missed this detail. However the establishment is not too far from nearby cities that had amble dining options, but missing out on the roast experience was definitely regrettable. So I would advise anyone lodging here pay extra attention to this detail if dining is a key experience for you.
The lodging was relatively straightforward to check-in and checkout. There was plenty of parking available (although I can’t speak to the days if the carvery is open for dining) and the room was clean and well decorated.

Overall good, mattress could do with replacing as it squeaked whenever you moved and window frames were mouldy and shower leaked but I would stay again. Carvery was good and parking convenient. Staff great.

The hotel staff are very welcoming and lovely at 4:30 check in and also served a beer after the carvery closed. If you can not do stairs, this is not for you. The room was clean and the bed was reasonably comfortable. The tub chairs in the room were comfy enough but no coffee table or end table to place the coffee/tea cups on. Overall it was very good value for money.

There was plenty of parking, even for electric charging, food area was lovely and clean but we didnt eat there. Service was great, provided drinks and then shown to our room. The room was large, with beautiful decor and massive, soft comfy bed. Small toilet/shower room but sufficient for its requirements. Would definitely go back!

This was our second stay at this hotel and we cannot speak to highly of the owners and the staff who make a great effort in making you feel welcome. The carvery is fantastic and great value for money and we will definitely be back

A lovely place to stay, close to Harrogate and all its facilities. Super friendly host, very helpful.
Unfortunately, their carvery is only open Thursday to Sunday so we weren’t able to sample the food, but the restaurant and bar area looked very inviting and I’m sure that if we had been able to we’d have enjoyed a fine meal there

Very clean and quiet hotel with friendly and helpful staff.
The only slight fault I found was the lack of breakfast. But as there is a garden centre only two minutes drive away providing delicious breakfasts, it wasn't a problem. The carvery in the hotel which is open Thursday to Sunday is marvellous and great value.Thanks to Dave and the team for an excellent stay

Excellent food
Shame no breakfast
Shower jets water directly at door so tends to cause flood outside shower on opening the shower door after waiting for water to heat up which takes several minutes
Overall very good and very friendly
