Great place to stay and eat

A lovely place to stay. The room was clean and comfortable with heating, aircon AND fan! We only needed the fan. Shower was powerful and clean. The curtains were very good at keeping out the light. Service was very friendly and efficient. Food was delicious and good value. The only small issue was that the external lights remained on all through the night, from an eco friendliness point of view, could be improved. Well recommended stay. Delightful and pretty part of the world.

Great places to stay in Boroughbridge.

We stayed 1 night while visiting relatives. The decor was great and had a cozy feel. Bit disappointed there was no fridge in the room.

A grand Yorkshire stopover

My wife and I stayed at the Grantham Arms enroute to visit relatives, and it far outweighed our expectations. We got a nice warm welcome and the room was spacious and comfortable, and was warm and cosy. Cannot really fault it. The food was excellent, and service exceptional. Only minor drawback for me was the nearby road was noisy, but given it is quite rural there was no traffic overnight, so didn’t interrupt my sleep.
