Pros: Truly traditional inn at the heart of this moorland village, a hub for the community and offering an all-round excellent stay. Staff were without exception helpful and very friendly, the room was well appointed from the ample supply of local Yorkshire biscuits to the soft pillows and plenty of storage space. The highlight is the food here. The chef is really, really good and everything on offer is just delicious. The Inn is also very dog friendly; they even leave you towels by the back door to wipe muddy paws. If you are looking for a stay on the edge of the Moors, close to Pickering and the steam railway, with an attractive village setting, fantastic food and a warm welcome for you and your dogs, this is the place.

Cons: Breakfast didn't start till 8.30 am. We needed to leave early, so they did provide a basic fruit juice, cereal, toast and kettle breakfast, though no discount on the B&B price for it. Shower power was very low. Our twin room was noisy - above the bar and didn't quiten down until the bar closed - OK for us as we were late - other rooms may be OK.

Pros: I stayed here before starting the Cleveland Way walk, and I certainly didn’t regret it. The room was very pleasant and comfortable, no glitches with anything. Eating on the bar was easy, and the full English breakfast - included in the price - was amazing. Staff were friendly and accommodating, nothing was a problem. The place obviously attracts shooting and fishing types, which it accommodates very well. It’s larger than it looks from the front, which is great - there’s more for everyone to enjoy.

Our dinner:-Liver was excellent; Fish & chips-skin on fish!, too much batter!, soggy bottom!. Chips were rubbish - drop this stupid craze for multiple frying of chips - have a look at the weatherby Whaler, York - perfect every time. Breakfast was perfect. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Pros: Breakfast was very good, The hotel is in the prefect location for seeing York. we arrived by train and the hotel was only a few minutes walk away. They have a very nice seating area in front of the hotel that seems very popular and I found drinks from the bar to be very reasonably priced. The only small niggle was that the bed was too hard for my back.

7,9 Good
Pros: Staff at the Lamb and Lion were just great, from check-in, at the bar and at breakfast. The patio (garden) out back was a great place to have a pint and a light lunch, although we felt a bit like a zoo exhibit with people walking by on the wall above us and looking down!!! The location is excellent, within a very easy walk of all the major sites in York. The breakfast was very generous.
Cons: The bed was very firm and not to my taste. There is not much soundproofing and unfortunately we had a very noisy neighbour above us, who after waking us up with his morning coughing fit, proceeded to go out back and sit directly under our open window smoking several cigarettes (before 8:00 am). The bathroom was very spacious, but the shower was extremely small and awkward. The shower doors did not close properly, so water escaped. This is a very quirky, historic, building. Do your research before reserving!

Pros: We felt our experience the second time of coming not up to what we were paying. Room very cramped so awkward for my husband to get around. Last year loved the room we had on the outside. Staff very friendly and helpful with cases etc.

Cons: Breakfast disappointing as toast was put down when we first arrived so cold by the time breakfast arrived. Smoked salmon was not available again last year no comparison.

Pros: I liked the staff and how helpful and friendly they were. It means a lot when visiting alone. My room didn't have much of a view but it was perfect for me, and the hotel was so central.
Cons: The fact that I had to put the kettle on the floor to boil it as there was no socket near where the kettle had been placed. My hands are arthritic so this was a small problem, and possibly a health and safety issue.

Cons:
1,0 Poor
Pros: Great location, good size bathroom.
Cons: The room was off the beer garden, so on arrival the noise from drinkers was right outside the window, not what we hoped for. The furniture in the room was old, not antique just dated stuff from junk shop. We ordered a vegan breakfast and was reassured this would be included in the price, we paid over £200, very poor offering as the kitchen had bought the wrong kind of sausages.
4,0 Okay
Pros: Breakfast was very nice .
Cons: Damp in room .builder's came in as we arrived to look at the problem. You could see water marks on the wall where it rains in . Ripped curtains. Bed was horrible with springs in your back and legs . Not worth £238 for two nights??? Better off in a premiere inn

Pros: The staff were lovely and very helpful but the accommodation - a single room at the top of the house left a lot to be desired. The room itself was ok and had a nice view but the bed was probably the most uncomfortable I’ve ever had (very thin mattress) and it was almost impossible to have a shower without flooding the bathroom floor. The worst bit was the noise - the plumbing was very noisy and the noise from an adjacent room was also very noisy - sounded like a water buffalo having a bath next door! I’d stay at this property again but I’d specify a different room - I think there are other much nicer and quieter double rooms available but this single room didn’t ought to be used for guests in my opinion.

Pros: Breakfast was excellent with lots of choice and good portions and well presented. Room was well furnished however there was a pungent odour present which was attributed to dampness however I was told there wasn't any so a bit baffled since it rather smelt like dog urine ! Good evening meals too and reasonably priced.
