It is written for the reader seeking impartial advice on finding a good place to stay. Hotels cannot buy their way into the Guide.

Good Hotel Guide Review
The hotel experts at the Good Hotel Guide
With views over the Vale of York, this village inn has all the warmth, character and robust food expected of a 300-year-old country pub. Owners Michael and Sasha Ibbotson ensure guests, and their dogs, are well cared-for. The busy dining areas have stone flags, wood panelling and inglenook fireplaces – a 'delightfully decorated' backdrop to the 'excellent' menu of regional pub classics. Alfresco meals may be taken on the heated patio. Most of the bedrooms are in stone buildings behind the pub. All have a terrace with outdoor seating; two feature a hot spa pool, a fitting place to soak in the 'superb' views over a pint of local ale or Yorkshire Fizz.
