"Clean Room. Staff Good.Breakfast Good. Bar Good. Food Good."

Aldwark Manor Estate

8/10 Good

"We stayed for two nights in room 101. All good at sign in then we went to the room and tried to sign in to the WiFi to work…nothing. I rang reception who explained how to sign in as no instructions on the tv or room. That detail was explained but still Wouldn’t sign in. So I took my iPhones to reception and it immediately signed in. We later found out that IT had been working on it all day so the hotel guests entirely were not able to access WiFi at all. I was furious that reception knew this but decided or was instructed not to be honest. Honesty from the start is so important. No work undertaken for day 1. Day 2 it was still the same but the reception staff provided an alternative to all me to work because I had business meetings. The bathroom sink has an awful smell coming up through it when some water is run. A little treatment would sort that out."

2 bedroom accommodation in Minskip, near Roecliffe

10/10 Excellent

"Superb cottage in immaculate condition. Would have coped with four people easily, although there were only two of us. Everything was spotless, it was incredibly well equipped (apart from no scissors which it turns out we use far more than we realised!). We would suggest that recycling instructions are provided - we googled them for the area and hope we got it right, but this is unusual these days. Very central location for exploring. We visited Whitby , Ripon and York. Closer to home we would recommend Staveley nature reserve and a wander into Boroughbridge, which has so many independent shops, including five bakeries and an amazing butcher."

The Bay Horse Country Inn
