We would especially like to thank May for going the extra mile & giving us help in finding a garage that could do a quick car repair so that we were able to enjoy the rest of our holiday

A lovely hotel/pub.
The staff were very welcoming helpful,
friendly and efficient.
The chef produced some wonderful meals
We've stayed in larger rooms but that didnt matter as there was everything you needed with the added bonus of being so lovely and warm as we chose to stay during the coldest few days of this year.
York, Whitby and the North Yorkshire Moors were all not far away.
We'll definitely be back.

Personeel erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Kamer erg klein en het bed was net een wiebelige waterbed. Eten was prima zo ook het ontbijt.

We stopped for an overnight stay at the Royal Oak. It was a really friendly and traditional pub serving lovely food and ales. Staff were incredibly friendly and warm. We had dinner in the restaurant and breakfast, both of which were delicious. The accommodation is situated in a small village location, very quiet but lovely. It was exactly what we wanted. If I have any complaints it was the bedrooms were a little on the cosy side, but adequate enough for the two of us.
