Situated on the edge of the North Yorkshire Moors, The Fairfax Arms offers 4-star accommodation and a traditional, oak-beamed bar. It has peaceful gardens, and is a 30-minute drive from York.
The elegant rooms come with homemade biscuits, freshly ground coffee and fresh fruit. Some retain original wooden beams, and all have a flat-screen TV and iPod docking station.
Guests can enjoy a drink in the bar, with its open log fire. There is outside seating for warmer weather, and a restaurant serving meals made from fresh local ingredients.
Wi-Fi is free throughout The Fairfax Arms, and there is space for free private parking on site.

“Lovely accommodation in an idyllic village setting. Breakfast was first class, only downside was we couldn’t order our cooked breakfast until 8.30am. The waitress brought us our tea and coffee, but it was a bit of a rush as we had to leave...”
