We’ll stay here again.
We had a lovely stay, room was clean and comfortable, dog friendly.
Food was delicious and excellent friendly service.
Situated just a short distance from the moors with lovely walks and stunning scenery.
The staff were so friendly and keen to make everything perfect. The room was great. The food was excellent. I had really great dinners and breakfast was delicious start to day. The locals clearly loved the Royal Oak which was another good sign! Such a great stay and only good things to say about it!
Very friendly and welcoming traditional Pub with rooms. Excellent quality breakfast and traditional bar.
Rooms a little dated but comfortable and clean.
This lovely old pub offers good clean accommodation the food is excellent & nothing is too much trouble for the staff
We would especially like to thank May for going the extra mile & giving us help in finding a garage that could do a quick car repair so that we were able to enjoy the rest of our holiday

WAY out of the way for York. Tiny one lane roads for 45 minutes to get there.
Friendly staff.
Rooms are like going into a museum for 1900 hotel room..

Staff delightful. Food very good. Well stocked public bar. Well patronised.
A lovely hotel/pub.
The staff were very welcoming helpful,
friendly and efficient.
The chef produced some wonderful meals
We've stayed in larger rooms but that didnt matter as there was everything you needed with the added bonus of being so lovely and warm as we chose to stay during the coldest few days of this year.
York, Whitby and the North Yorkshire Moors were all not far away.
We'll definitely be back.
