“Based on what I've seen, this is a properly cosy pub with very friendly and attentive staff. The spacious and clean rooms feature super king sized beds, and the food is so good and plentiful that guests often dine in rather than venturing into York. Overall, it seems a great choice for those seeking a relaxed base just outside the city.”
