Absolutely superb place to stay , great central location, parking within walking distance, beautiful property, well maintained, super friendly staff and a first class breakfast.
It was perfectly situated in the centre of Holmfirth with easy parking individual to your stay. The staff were wonderfully friendly and helpful. Our room and ensuite were stunning
What a lovely hotel , parking spot for each room , check in was easy and the staff what can i say polite , friendly and nothing was too much trouble.
As for the breakfast, one of the nicest i have had .
I will be back .
Thank you
Let’s start with the location - right in the centre with parking for those that stay. The room was perfect, (this is a pub not a hotel). The manager (Wayne) and the bar / beer were just what we wanted.
Great breakfast to start the 2 hour walk.
Would we stay here again? YES
Lovely rooms, staff were very friendly and helpful, the breakfast was amazing and we had a really good night in the pub, good atmosphere and fabulous live entertainment, I would definitely recommend staying here
