Lovely Hotel, Great Location

The room was lovely. It was spotless. Towels clean and fluffy. Breakfast was spot on. We had drinks in the bar one of the night, good value and plenty of choice too. Will stop here again, perfect location and only a two minute walk from the car park which was cheap for 24 hours.

Good value for money

Went for impromptu lunch. Excellent service. Food was lovely and very good value for money. I chose the scampi and changed the sides due to my foodie intolerances and this was accommodated without fuss. Staff very friendly.

Worth every penny!

We booked late but were still accommodated. Greeted by friendly staff. The food choices were just brilliant and we all found so many things we wanted to eat it was hard to choose. In the end we had a portion of crab arrancini which was delicate, crispy and tasty whilst we waited for our starters My husband and I had scallops from the specials to begin, he then had belly pork with mash and pork cheek and I had hake Kiev. Both were just lovely and I stopped short of licking the plate!

Brilliant night

As always the food and service were excellent, we were a party of 5 and everyone enjoyed their meals, excellent value at £10.00 for a main in a Tuesday with a quiz and bingo, couldn't ask for a better night.

Fabulous overnight stay.

Beautiful location, easy & fast check in. Friendly and helpful staff. We used the spa facilities and enjoyed an evening meal and full English breakfast the next morning. Definitely going to return and enjoy the beautiful countryside around Skipton and The Dales.

Pub that sells good beer.

I visit the New Inn regularly,this is your traditional "boozer" and like marmite you will either love it or hate it. It consists of 4 rooms plus a bar area, a large rear beer garden "yard" and a smaller drinks area at the front. The main selling point is the choice of well kept beers (usually about 8 cask bitters) at reasonable prices. It doesn't do food other than crisps and there is no background music or slot machines - you have to make your own conversation which most people seem to manage.

Amazing service & food

I wanted to leave a review as I feel this pub certainly deserves it! The new management is next to none! The service we received as soon as we came in was amazing and lovely that owner took the time to come to speak to us. Not only was the service was amazing, the food is ridiculously good, you can tell everything is fresh and made from scratch, can’t recommend this place enough whether it’s food, just drinks or both. A suitable pub for family, friends, couple the whole lot!

Wonderful place!

This was the second time we had stayed here but the first time for our friends. We all had a great time the girls had a lovely afternoon clay pigeon shooting whilst we went off getting Land Rovers dirty. We all met up in the bar after our events and sat around the log burner as it had been a cold day. The bar area was really cosy and the bar had a good choice of real ales. The staff were really friendly and looked after us well.

Valentines meal in Cardiff

My partner and I booked for Valentines and his birthday. We have eaten here many times and have always found the food to be excellent. We were happy the venue had chosen to offer their main menu alongside some special menu items for Valentines rather than offering only a set Valentines menu like other venues, it gave more of a relaxed feel to the evening. The food, as always, was exceptionally good and the service, firendly and attentive.

Definitely come again.

All the staff are extremely friendly and make everyone feel totally welcome. The food we had was top notch and apparently all home cooked. I had the curry off the menu and my wife had the chicken stew with dumplings from the chalkboard. We didn’t leave a speck on our plates. On top of that we got to park our camper for nothing overnight. What more can you ask for. Oh by the way, it’s in a lovely part of Lancashire. Don’t just take my word for it, go and try it yourself.
