My main problem was with the electricity. The PowerPoint for my electric razor didn't work, so I was given an alternative three to two adapter, but this didn't work either. I bought myself a new electric razor, but I couldn't charge this up properly. So all the time I was at the property. I was badly shaved.

Village inn
Loved the village - which is NOT in Leyburn! Staff were welcoming and hospitable. My room was up a somewhat awkward set of stairs and the wi-fi did not connect. Next door neighbour's TV sound a bit noisy. Parking on the road - and not always easy to find!
Tricky stairs to what are probably converted stable-rooms!  Quite comfortable once you're upstairs!

The pub is exactly what you would expect in an ultra rural location. The food was fine and not bad value. My room was very cold as the central heating was not on and the electric heater provided shorted when I turned it on. The staff were very pleasant and I know they were short staffed so you can’t be critical. All in all it was ok.

Great room at a great price
Room was very spacious, well equipped and clean, very luxurious considering the price. The breakfast was excellent and the locals in the bar were friendly...add the fact that there is a waterfall 3 mins walk away to relax in the peace and quiet.

Great traditional pub stay in the Yorkshire Dales
Last minute booking. Andrew and Patricia were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Great email contact on the day and very accommodating when I arrived outside the mealtime hours providing me with a fresh to order pizza from the pizza oven. Room was spacious and very clean. I appreciated the hot shower and easy to access Wi-Fi after a long journey from Scotland. Bed was very comfy. Delicious English breakfast provided in the morning and very easy to settle the bill afterwards. Absolutely would stay again.

We really liked the lovely location and character charm of the property. The food and service were excellent, great price and quality. The only downfall, and it’s a first world problem was the lack of good WIFI in and around the property, but otherwise thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Well done
