Best restaurants with rooms in Yorkshire

Michael and Johanna Wignall have reimagined a 15th-century Dales inn, creating classy, contemporary bedrooms, most in annexes with views over Rylstone Fell, and intimate dining spaces in which to sample Michael’s Michelin-starred cooking.

The Star Inn at Harome, Helmsley

Rising phoenix-like from the ashes of a conflagration, Andrew Pern’s thatched village gastropub retains its joyful eccentricity, with quirky, rustic bedrooms in converted farm buildings, while Mr Pern’s modern Yorkshire cooking has lost none of its spark.

Grassington House, Grassington

In a 'near-perfect position in the village square', this handsome Georgian house, now a restaurant-with-rooms, is 'an absolute delight', write readers.

The Black Swan at Oldstead, York

Raise a nasturtium martini to chef/director Tommy Banks, renowned for his wildly creative cooking and use of foraged ingredients, at the family’s Michelin-starred restaurant-with-rooms, with country-style bedrooms, here on the North York Moors.

Yorebridge House, Bainbridge

A riverside conversion of a Victorian grammar school and headmaster’s house gains an A* for splendid, characterful, boutique-style bedrooms, some with terrace and hot tub, and short, set-price, foodie-pleasing menus.

The Blue Lion, Leyburn

Dogs and their people receive a warm welcome at this 18th-century former coaching inn, with cosy bar and candlelit restaurant, a mix of contemporary and country-style bedrooms in the inn and converted stables, and inventive seasonally changing menu.

The Carpenters Arms, Thirsk

With far-reaching views over the Vale of York, this village inn blends olde-worlde beams, cottage-style bedrooms and luxury Scandi-style garden suites, while pub classics sit alongside creative modern dishes on eclectic menus.

Brocco on the Park, Sheffield

Behind the solid exterior of an Edwardian park-side villa lies a Scandi-chic boutique hotel and popular drop-in restaurant.

Swinton Park, Masham

Much altered since it was begun in 1695, the Cunliffe-Lister family’s neo-Gothic, castellated fantasy castle is ‘a very special place, grand and imposing’, in ‘simply glorious’ pleasure grounds and parkland.

The General Tarleton, Ferrensby

Open fires, flagstone floors and exposed stone walls give this 18th-century coaching inn, which recently underwent a swish refurbishment, a warm, traditional feel, to match its welcome.

The Pipe and Glass Inn, South Dalton

In an enchanting village, this coaching inn impresses with its cosy beamed bar, indulgent bedrooms with private patio, and Michelin-starred chef James Mackenzie’s spin on classic British dishes in the restaurant.

The Frenchgate Restaurant & Hotel, Richmond

From amuse-bouche to dessert, dinner in the candlelit dining room is the highlight at this Georgian town house on a cobbled street in this market town, but that is not to fault the individually styled bedrooms or excellent breakfast.

Simonstone Hall,

Against the backdrop of Stag Fell, with views over Wensleydale, this many-gabled stone-built retreat offers the perfect country house escape, with antiques, comfy armchairs, warm hospitality and modern cooking of local ingredients.

Manor House Lindley, Huddersfield

Alluringly re-designed, this Georgian mansion set back from the High Street in a smart Huddersfield suburb, is brimming with distinctive spaces in which to sit, drink and dine.

The Sportsman’s Arms, Harrogate

‘More country hotel than pub-with-rooms’, this creeper-covered 17th-century inn, in ‘a lovely location’, is approached via a narrow stone packhorse bridge.

Visit a 17th century former mill with unique features such as freestanding baths, which makes it an ideal romantic escape. Or head to a village inn with rooms overlooking the Vale of Mowbray that’s the perfect place for a catch up with friends. A Michelin Star former pub in York or a chic retreat in Skipton overlooking a cobbled square are amongst the options. Or perhaps combine long walks and country pursuits with a rest at a convivial hotel, restaurant and coffee shop in Helmsley.
