海灣馬鄉村旅館(The Bay Horse Country Inn)

We spent a weekend here with friends, we were warmly greeted by Chris and shown to our rooms which were well equipped, clean and warm. We spent two evenings in the friendly bar and thoroughly enjoyed the food served for evening meal. Our breakfasts were also excellent. We cannot praise Chris and his staff enough.

A little bit out the way (in the sticks) but very pleasantly surprised. Rooms are a good size, staff is so friendly and owners were fabulous. Would highly recommend staying here ... you can either drive into thirsk or ripon or coats £15 in taxis ... overall very good and really happy with our stay xx

We had a lovely warm welcome from the second we entered the Inn and when we came down from our room for a drink and an evening meal we were so well looked after despite there being a large group at the pub who were also eating. The steak pie and lamb and mint pie were INCREDIBLE! And my husband said the John Smiths was a ‘beautiful pint’. Our room was very comfortable… old fashioned, in a good way, but with the luxury of a large tv. In true old fashioned inn style, the carpets throughout the Inn are very busy, and there are quite a few small flights of steps throughout and so some steps can be hard to see… something to bear in mind for anyone not too steady on their feet. This morning we had the same warm welcome when we went down for breakfast. Lovely hot tasty breakfast and large pot of tea. We felt at home from the minute we arrived at the Bay Horse and will be returning.

This little village pub is just that, a village pub. It is well supported by the villagers and people returning home after work were dropping in for a drink and a catch up. The food is very good and reasonably priced. It is a little old fashioned, but the beds are comfortable and the pillows squashy enough to ensure a good night’s sleep. I would stay again if in the area.

This was our fourth stay at this quaint pub located in a small village on the outskirts of Thirsk. Very handy for access to the A1. As usual a warm welcome awaited our arrival & hosts Chris & Bev could not be more accommodating. All creature comforts along with a good pint of well kept beer. The evening meals are homemade & delicious. The rooms are clean & old fashioned. A time warp & we enjoy that atmosphere. The locals remember us & we spend time having a drink in the well stocked bar. Don’t look for chrome & mirrors you will not find them - just enjoy the old way of life & savour the memories. Thank you once again. Will be back.

We stayed one night here and also had dinner with breakfast the following morning. The landlord and his staff were excellent, the room was clean and had everything we needed. The food was excellent - we had steak pie and the lamb and mint pie - and the breakfast was very good too. All in all, a lovely stay and we'll certainly be back next time we are in the area.

The proprietor was very helpful at check in. The room was very comfortable with tea coffee making facilities The restaurant had a great menu. Food was fantastic. Breakfast must not be missed. Excellent stay. Will definitely stay again if in the area.

We were looking for a relaxing place to stay while visiting my mother in a care home and we really hit the jackpot with The Bay Horse. A wonderful country pub with the warmest of welcome, wonderful food and a relaxing atmosphere. We will be returning.

Owner is very friendly and helpful. Peaceful location with good road links to anywhere.
