We stayed here whilst we visited the Great Yorkshire Show. Ideal for travelling to and from the show. Staff were at the Inn were not only friendly but very helpful. We had a toddler with us and having an outside space was ideal for us all Staff are a credit to the owners and we would definately stay again

We recently had the pleasure of staying at The Inn South Stainley, and it exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and genuinely pet friendly something we deeply appreciated as we were travelling with our dog. Our superior room was beautifully presented, spacious, and featured a comfortable bed that guaranteed a restful night’s sleep. The balcony opened onto the garden, offering a serene spot to enjoy a morning coffee while our dog explored the safe and well-kept outdoor area. It truly felt like a home away from home—for both us and our four-legged companion. The dining experience was nothing short of exceptional. Breakfast featured local, glorious produce, and the bacon and black pudding were unlike anything we’ve tasted before rich, flavourful, and perfectly cooked. For dinner, we had the sirloin steak, and it was genuinely the best we’ve ever had tender, cooked to perfection, and served with real attention to detail. What truly sets The Inn apart, however, is the staff. The team was friendly, caring, and impressively efficient. Their attentiveness and warm hospitality added so much to the overall experience. The location is great for easy access to Ripon, Ripley Castle, Harrogate, & Knaresborough, is a perfect blend of comfort, quality, and genuine hospitality. Whether you’re looking for a romantic getaway, a base for exploring local gems, or a luxurious pet-friendly escape, this gem of a place ticks every box.

Anyone looking for a short stay, or base for visiting Fountains Abbey or other local attractions should consider the Inn. The property is clean bright and feels new. The room we stayed in was small but beautifully finished and set out. All the meals were really good, Haddock was huge and the Steak pie delicious. Staff friendly and helpful. All so good.
