General Tarleton

We were on a visit to the Christmas Market in Knaresborough... This is a lovely hote, however l.. we had a meal in the restaurant...very limited choice for a vegetarian! I felt it was quite expensive as you had to pay extra for vegetables and sides .I had Leek and potato Wellington, which was tasty, but that's all that was on the plate!! Upon leaving there had been snow overnight, and a very kind elderly gentleman helped to brush the snow off our car! Which was very much appreciated.

Beautiful hotel with lovely rooms. Quality tea, coffee & macarons in the room as well as good quality toiletries in the bathroom. Good powerful over the bath shower & a deep (but slippery) bath. Bed was comfortable (and huge!) Bar area is nicely furnished, staff are attentive without being intrusive. We didnt eat, but the menu and the food looked amazing, and the restaurant was busy. Definitely deserving of its AA 5 star rating. Only downside was there is nothing else in the village at all. Knaresborough is easily accessible by taxi at a cost of around £10.

Spent 1 night here, while travelling north. A beautiful treasure of a hotel in a lovely village ... yet not far from the M1. Receptionist was very helpful and kind. The room was spotless, with great firm mattress on bed. Powerful shower! The breakfast ... what can I say ... brilliant! Coffee perfect, and the meal was fabulous, and arrived hot! Situation ... close to Yorkshire dales and scenic beauty- spots. All in all ... this is a fabulous wee hotel. You should visit it!!
