The hotel is located in a charming area within some of North Yorkshire's most attractive countryside, next to a bubbling stream. The rooms are beautifully designed with a fantastic bathroom featuring a Jacuzzi and modern amenities while still exuding character. The bar below offers great facilities, but some improvements could be made. The service is attentive, but a tad slow at times. The dining options cater to early risers and include gluten-free products. Overall, the hotel provides a comfortable stay with some delightful perks but could benefit from a more efficient service.
