"This is a very pleasant guest house with adequate facilities, clean and friendly with a good breakfast. The house is very convienent for Harrogate town and I would recommend it. " (107204670)
The hotel was adequate and the food was good, the owner was very friendly and helpful. The place was clean and well furnished and the bed very comfortable.
No real bad points, shower base creaked a bit but that was not a real problem.

"Overall the stay was lovley. The room was well furnished and comfortable. The owner was very friendly & helpful. He even offered us a drink after we checked out whilst we were waiting for our transportation. The only negative thing was that for us the breakfast was served too early, before 9 am(as we had had a late night after a wedding!). if we were to visit Harrogate agin, we would most likey use the same hotel." (97048257)
Convenient location for the occasion. Lovely room
Breakfast was served too early!

"Good clean accommodation run by a very helpful owner who was very knowledgable of the area and gave us a few suggestions for some car tours and places to visit which was a great help as it was our first visit to Harrogate. We were set off on these trips after a superb breakfast which had some nice individual touches like home made jams and a really nice fresh fruit/muesli/yogurt concoction." (97675781)

"The welcome was warm and friendly, the room was perfectly clean and smart, although a bit small (not enough to matter) and the view was beautiful. Breakfast offered a good selection and was well prepared and presented. Service was excellent. Property a short walk from town centre and railway station so ideal for travel without a car. Very good value indeed." (99562502)

"This Bed & Breakfast is fantastic! The rooms are spotlessly clean and well presented, containing everything you would normally only expect from a more expensive hotel - little things like toiletries in the bathroom. It also has private parking and satellite TV. The atmosphere is great too, like a home from home." (99221749)
The welcome was warm and friendly and the rooms were lovely. Breakfast was second to none.
