My friends and I had a great three nights at the King's Head.
The accommodation was good with a sizable and clean room. The breakfast was great with a lot of variety. We ate in the restaurant twice during our stay and the menu was varied and quality was good.
The hotel bar serves a wide selection of spirits and wine and the beer from the two local breweries was excellent.

Very nice place to stay, lovely breakfast.
Very good location for our trip, lots of nice pubs. I did find having to go downstairs to the bathroom a bit much during the night.

In the centre of Masham so easy to walk around the town and just a short walk from Black Sheep Brewery Visitor Centre. Great base for touring dales. Relaxed atmosphere and very dog friendly.

The staff were delightful and really went above and beyond to make my stay memorable. Including a hand written note in my room upon arrival and addressing me by name at breakfast. Something I've never experienced before. A great place.

Another stay here. But have to say this was the most disappointing room we have stayed in here from all the times we have stayed. Signs of damp in bathroom and just inside front door. Room was nice but small

Great setting and a well appointed hotel. Very friendly staff and the breakfast team was particularly welcoming. The breakfast itself was excellent and whilst the evening meal was good it was also over priced.
The room was comfortable and clean and we overlooked the village square which made for a pleasant view. The shower was not the strongest but the fluffiness of the towels made up for this blip.
The decor was a little shabby in places but nothing that spoiled the trip.
