Great location . Stay included if requested tickets too High force waterfalls . Also tickets for Raby castle & gardens Staff were helpful & friendly . Great food . Hotel very unique & downstairs dining very spacious

We were in room 7 , standard room with our Small dog . It was great for one night . Very small room & cupboard . Perhaps a small set of drawers instead of the tall round table !

A lovely country hotel in a beautiful location - highly recommend a walk to the waterfall. Staff were very accommodating and both dinner and breakfast were delicious - would highly recommend!

Very enjoyable.

10.0

Arriving from over the desolate high moors George, the owner, could not have been more helpful. A choice of beautifully furnished rooms then a short walk down to the waterfall, followed by an excellent evening meal.

Don’t be put off by the austere exterior.

8.0

Pleasant comfortable hotel right opposite High Force which you can visit free if you are staying at the hotel. Large room with lots of windows and quiet despite being right on the roadside. Really spacious bed. Tea and cake after our walk. Dinner was traditional pub food - steak, fish and chips etc which was well cooked. Breakfast had omelettes and other choices as well as the full English but no yogurts or chopped seasonal fruit like strawberries. Staff were really friendly

Room was a bit grubby - stained carpet in the entrance way, mouldy tiles and really dirty arms on the chairs and the bathroom smelled of boiled vegetables despite the strong room oil - would have given it top rating if not for these points. Also the restaurant was empty by 830 pm on a Saturday night so no atmosphere.
