We called in for lunch. The choice was good, with options for the children and adults alike. And the food was good too, but the service was very slow and could perhaps be improved. That said, the hotel bar and restaurant is clean, spacious and bright, and the hotel is situated in a perfect spot in the Dales, within a few hundred metres' walk of Middleham castle.
Received our stay here as a gift and it was great. Had dinner, bread and breakfast.
Fiona was a wonderful host and between her and Rui, they made us feel so welcome and provided first class service.
I would definitely recommend and hope to be back there soon.
My wife and I spent a very relaxing three nights here (with our dog) and had dinner on each evening. The staff (we met Hugo and Rui) are great. The evening food is of a very high standard and we really enjoyed all the meals; similarly good breakfasts. Easy parking in the square. Middleham is an interesting place: the castle is a good visit, walks on footpaths and bridleways afforded great views and wildlife. Would definitely return.
Just returned home after a short stay of 2 nights. Lovely hotel, my single room was delightful.
Had evening meal on both evenings in the Tack room. The service was spot on and what can I say about the food, just putting delicious would not do it justice. It was perfect, sea bream the first evening and Lamb rump the next. The staff are so friendly and welcoming. Definitely recommend staying there.
We would like to thank Fiona and the rest of the staff for making our stay over the New Year an enjoyable experience. We stayed for 3 nights with our dog and were made to feel welcome. Its nice to find a hotel that makes dogs welcome as well. The room was comfortable and the food and service from all of the staff was excellent. The location of the Wensleydale is great for exploring the area. We would definitely recommend.
We visited Middleham for lunch one Sunday and what a find the Wensleydale hotel proved to be. We thought there was a French feel to it and as the owners have lived and worked in France , not surprising. We had a 3 course meal from the set menu, and it was delicious, one of the best meals we have ever had. Although we live some miles away, we plan to return.
five of us had lunch today at the Tack room. We had four times Scallops and my husband had the Sea Bream and Samphire.
We started our lunch with a bottle of Prosecco and moved on to a Vignonier (sp?) with the fish.
We rounded off our meal with various moorish deserts . I had tarte Tatine and icecream
Every plate looked classy and appetising. The scallops were fragrant and aromatic and the Sea Bream had perfect crispy skin.
The whole experience smacked of class and taste in both senses of the word!. It was the sort of taste that lingers with you after you leave.
HIghly recommended if you value taste and imagination over a blow out.
We have stayed here before and love it. The recently refurbished rooms are beautiful and in keeping with an historic building. The food was, as ever, excellent - much of it produced on the family farm - and staff really friendly. Best boutique hotel in North Yorkshire. Many Thanks
Lovely warm, friendly atmosphere in the hotel. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. The food in the Tack Room restaurant was excellent. All round, a lovely stay in a beautiful part of Yorkshire.
Thoroughly recommend The Wensleydale to anyone who is planning a stay in the Yorkshire Dales. We were greeted very warmly by the owners and nothing was too much trouble. Our room was amazing with lots of personal touches and we’d checked first to see if we could bring our little dog which made it extra nice. Very comfy bed and fluffy pillows, and the room and en suite were exceptionally clean. Had a great view over the market square and enjoyed watching the race horses setting off for the gallops for their morning training. The best thing about this place is the food - absolutely outstanding quality and cooked to perfection. I’ve had such a lovely birthday treat here, thank you.
We had a couple of days away to celebrate our anniversary and we stayed at the wensleydale hotel and we had no complaints the staff were very accommodating and the food in the tack room was excellent. Location was great for walking and the people in the village of middleham were friendly definitely have a return visit. Keep up the good work hugo and monte .
A beautifully restored building with tastefully decorated and comfortable rooms. The manegement and staff were wonderful and made us feel at home. The Tack Room restuarant (part of the hotel) was delightful and the food suberb. Could not recommend more highly.
We had a family lunch here that was delicious and specially prepared us. They were so accommodating and kind with flawless service. We had a great time and would highly recommend it to anyone.
From the moment you arrive you are made to feel very welcome.
Monty goes out of his way to make
you feel at home. Look forward to a return visit !
The food in the restaurant was lovely and the service first class.
