Very good stay here, a warm welcome from the host, who went out of his way to help us with a flat tyre. Comfortable room and hearty breakfast. Recommend.

Beats bland chain hotels by a country mile
Lovely family run pub in very quiet location with rooms and great home made meals. Easy reach of A1M and A19. Very welcoming after long day and very sociable. Brilliant cooked breakfast and lovely to see a community pub so popular with the locals.

Spur of the moment
We were on our way back from a job in Carlisle and was looking for reasonably priced B&B/Hotel for 1 night.
Lovely old pub just off the A1, Staff are friendly, the food was great including the breakfast that set us up for the long drive home next day.

A traditional country pub with great service from friendly staff. The room was comfortable and good value for money. If you don’t eat here you will miss out as the food is extremely good, far better than many places on our trip. Will definitely stay again.
