Great visit and would highly recommend if you’re going to Yorkshire

Pros: Exceptionally nice place and food and service were excellent.

Cons: Nothing. Bed was a slightly but small but myself and wife are both 6ft so sometimes can’t be helped. Maybe I should have asked for an upgrade from the outset

A real gem!

Pros: Great location. On site parking. Beautiful 17th century manor house. Loved the gardens. Flying visit to visit friends in Keighley so we didn't book for an evening meal. Breakfast was yummy. Quality ingredients, good choice, well cooked and presented. Pleasant, informative, attentive staff. Bedroom nicely furnished with all basic necessities provided. We definitely intend to return and stay longer.

Cons: Nothing.
