Devotees of this thatched village pub-with-rooms in quiet Harome, close to the North York Moors, will be thrilled by the reopening of their restaurant following a devastating fire in 2021. Spacious, quirky bedrooms are tucked away from the pub in converted farm buildings and a new-build barn. Characterful and rustic, with beams, low windows and chunky wooden furniture, they're dotted with fun objects: riding boots, board games, a pool table in one, piano in another. Contemporary barn rooms have floor-to-ceiling windows. Cosy up in the lounge, with its hunting lodge feel, log stove and afternoon cake before a drink from the honesty bar and a stroll to the pub for Andrew Pern's 'modern Yorkshire' cooking. Championing local produce – there's a vast kitchen garden – he produces exceptional flavour-dense dishes, perhaps crab stick with seashore vegetables and avocado ice followed by black treacle glazed duck with lovage tortellini. Feast-like breakfasts, with everything from freshly squeezed juice to freshly carved ham, are served at a giant round table. 'Sensational.'
