Travel Guide

Preston under Scar The view of the village from the opposite side of the dale. Preston Scar is behind the village, with the limestone quarries almost totally hidden from this angle.
Middleham High Moor gallops The view across the gallops towards Penhill. All is quiet here at lunchtime on a summer day, but come this way in the early morning and there will be the thunder of hooves as the racehorses gallop by.
Altitude Training Looking over the gallops on Middleham High Moor to Melmerby Moor beyond. Surprisingly, the gallops are a thousand feet above sea level.

Tiny single room reminded me of student accommodation - bathroom better than the bedroom (& approx same size). Shabby carpet & stained wall. Cost £129 for one night room only mid week - overpriced & disappointing

The best of the best service in an amazing place, everything taken care of. Valet parking top class, met by name and greeted with details of your stay. Every member of staff knew who you were from room to room, but never over-pestered. What a place.

Also heavy hinting on vegetarian meals with only veggie cookbooks in kitchen ? Felt a bit pointed. We found it cold although ...
