The room faced a busy road, leading to noticeable traffic noise, especially for light sleepers like me who prefers some fresh air at night. Drawer space was lacking, making it tricky to fully unpack. a simple addition could enhance the stay significantly. having breakfast hours extend to 11 AM on weekends would cater to those wanting a lazy morning a bit more.

perfect base for discovering harrogate's historic spots

I had a wonderful one-night stay here, where the food was exceptional and the staff made me feel so welcome, truly enhancing my experience of exploring nearby attractions like Ripley Castle and the stunning Fountains Abbey.

Would definitely recommend for a weekend escape

Spacious room, convenient location, with a flat-screen TV and free parking which made our stay incredibly enjoyable.

The room was cozy and the breakfast spread was fantastic, especially the Scottish mussels I had for dinner! I loved relaxing on the sun terrace and enjoying the garden area in the afternoons. The lighting in the bathroom was a bit tricky for makeup, but that's a small thing when everything else was so great! 😊

my family and i stayed for one night and had an incredible experience. the breakfast was freshly cooked, especially the local sausage and perfectly scrambled eggs. the deluxe double room was spacious, clean, and had a lovely view of the peaceful gardens.

missing a fridge for fresh milk

We had the best time with stunning views of alpacas and a delicious Yorkshire breakfast that kept us going all day. The food choices were fantastic, and the evening meal was a great end to our day!

would absolutely stay here again

The room was super spacious with a big comfy bed. We loved the private bathroom with a full-size bath and plenty of free toiletries. Breakfast was a highlight with freshly cooked local sausage and perfectly scrambled eggs. The outdoor dining area was a nice touch, too, with lovely views of the gardens.

The Deluxe Double Room felt cramped, a small double bed and an oversized chair made it tight. The room was hot, and opening the window let in noise from outside. the building had beautiful decor, recently updated and maintained. The cooked breakfast was fabulous and the bed was comfortable. The garden looked inviting for future visits. Staff were pleasant and really helpful. The location was excellent, just a 20-minute drive into Harrogate.

The location is right on the busy A61, which results in considerable noise from traffic, especially at night. the two standard dining chairs in the room felt less comfortable compared to an easy chair, which is what I'd expect in a quality room. A communication error regarding room occupancy caused some frustration.

Can recommend for a mini-vacation

Lovely room, lovely staff, with a big bed and children's fold out beds. Free Wi-Fi made our stay convenient and enjoyable for our family with children.

Nothing, it was perfect.

Family with children should definitely stay here

We had a lovely setup with a spacious room, and the kids were thrilled with the Easter eggs they got from the staff. The little balcony overlooking the alpacas was simply perfect for unwinding after a long day.

It wasn’t exactly budget-friendly but still acceptable for what we got.

pleasant stay but slightly overpriced dining

The lodge room setup was lovely for our family of four, with comfortable beds and great amenities. The staff were friendly, even surprising the kids with Easter eggs, which made the experience personal and warm.

Dining prices felt a bit steep compared to expectations.

The Inn boasts a stunning atmosphere with beautifully decorated dining areas and comfy beds in spacious rooms. The bathroom was impressive, featuring a full-size bath and ample toiletries. The breakfast menu was exceptional, with options like smoked haddock and poached eggs, alongside a variety of self-serve items. The log burners and garden area provided a lovely ambiance for relaxation after a long day of work.

A bit more drawer space in the room would have been helpful.

we had a great time staying here. the double bedroom was beautiful and really comfy, we slept like babies. the food was good both evenings, especially enjoyed breakfast. the staff were super friendly and made our anniversary feel special. would totally stay here again!

the bathroom could use a bit more toiletries for a 2 night stay, and it would be nice to have some comfy seating in the room instead of just the bed.

The Inn South Stainley features beautifully decorated areas that were welcoming and easy to navigate. The dining spaces were cozy, creating a lovely atmosphere for relaxation and socializing with friends or family.

More comfortable seating options would enhance accessibility.
