Had a great stay at The Wensleydale Hotel. Beautifully decorated room overlooking the square, very tastefully furnished. The Valentine dinner was a real treat. We especially enjoyed the home reared pork loin and the Tarte Tatin was the best tasting in a long time. The welcome is warm and hospitality very genuine. Can’t fault. The Calvados was great too!

We are a family of six staying staying in Middleham for a week. On Sunday my daughter & husband called for lunch & were bowled over by the food on offer & on telling us we decided to book for five to celebrate two family birthdays on the Wednesday. The food was exceptional especially the fish stew starter course, we also very much enjoyed both the Cabaletta red wine & the Sauvignon Blanc. Also I must also pay credit to the young man who attended to us who I believe is your son. You must be very proud of him as he was the epitome of what good service is all about. Thank you Fiona for a lovely evening

We were just looking for a relaxing couple of nights in North Yorkshire, and we made an excellent decision to book ourselves into the Wensleydale. Naturally, given that we were staying midweek in November, the hotel was quite quiet but we were given a warm welcome, the room was spacious, well-equipped and spotlessly clean. Meals in the Tack Room restaurant were excellent and clearly served with pride. We cannot recommend the Wensleydale highly enough.

We called for a light lunch whilst on the trail of King Richard III and were given a warm welcome by the host. All the food on offer was home made and absolutely delicious. I had mushroom soup and my son chose the soufflé. The pudding list looked most tempting - it would be worth going back just to try one of those! This old hotel has been given a tasteful makeover and the inside is clean and restful. The service was friendly and efficient. The Wensleydale Hotel restaurant is also called The Tack Room

We stayed for one night and it was a really lovely experience. Middleham is very quaint and beautiful. We loved seeing the race horses in the morning as we had breakfast. Breakfast was excellent- really good smoked salmon & scrambled eggs. The food the evening before was also of a high standard. I don’t usually sleep well in hotel beds but this was an exception. Lovely cosy room. We stayed as we were on our way to the Northern Antiques Fair in Leyburn and this was a good stopping point for that. Most of all there was great hospitality from the lovely man who checked us in and looked after us- sorry I didn’t get his name, but he made us feel very welcome. Decor was lovely too and everything was spotless. Just a really nice stay. Thank you.

Antique shops in the village along with a general store 100m away for newspapers etc. Many racing horses are ridden through the village in the morning.

We had a lovely stay and will definitely be returning. The room was nice and spacious with very tasteful decor. We had trouble getting our TV to work and a member of staff called Monty couldn’t do enough to help us and had it working in no time. We had a very peaceful night’s sleep in a very comfy bed. Breakfast was delicious and well organised. The owner Fiona was so hospitable and obviously takes great pride in ensuring people have a good stay. Can’t wait to go back soon!
