Another great stay at The Craven Heifer. Staff friendly and welcoming. Great food. We stayed in the Barn on the top floor again. Quiet with a beautiful view. Blade of Beef and Crème Brulée for dinner.

Great Hotel with great service. The only drawback was that we had a room overlooking the road which was pretty airless and passing traffic was very noisy if we opened a window..

Lovely place
Beautiful place to stay, in lovely countryside surroundings. Room was very spacious, stylish and very clean. The bed was so comfortable had a lovely sleep. Very nice breakfast with a great veggie (full English) version. Service was fabulous from check in to departure, friendly and helpful staff. I would definitely stay again.

We stayed in converted barn at the rear of the Inn, the accommodation was of a high standard and very comfortable. The staff were unobtrusive and very helpful. A good location to explore Forest of Bowland, Yorkshire dales and Blackpool if you are in the mood.

definitely visiting again
we booked two nights at the Craven Heifer (fri/sat) as we had a wedding on the saturday. check in was a breeze and only took a minute, this despite the pub / resutaurant being extremely busy. we had prebooked a table for dinner at 8.30pm (suggest you do the same) our meals were fantastic, the service was brilliant, friendly, quick and everything you would want after a week at work. the room was in the main building and was spacious, good hanging space, nice sized bathroom with toiletries. room had a great selection of tea / coffee / chocolate and had proper cookies !! (not little biscuits!) really comfy bed / pillows. we booked breakfast for 8.30am - again, great choice which catered for everyone from porridge to full english. on the saturday we were at the wedding, but had breakfast for 9am on the sunday - again, same fantastic service.

An excellent inn/accommodation with good food and reasonable prices. An old inn, much extend and beautifully decorated. Room are in the pub and 2 outside buildings. Only issue I would have is parking and access. . The site rises to the rear, both to the parking and the outside buildings. I use a walking stick and could just about manage the slopes and the stairs but severe walkers or wheel chair users would not. There is disabled parking (and electric charge points) availed. The pub is on the flat and wheelchair accessible but there is no pub level parking. Overall, a great find and great value. A word of warning - the restaurant is very popular so book ahead and if relying on electronic booking etc I would suggest actually confirming all directly with the pub. Our electronic confirmation went astray and we very nearly didn't get to eat. The staff though were really good and squeezed us in

Unexpected stay due to last minute change of plan. East to find ample parking. Room very clean with excellent facilities. Friendly and attentive staff. A little expensive but given the facilities available together with the late booking I can understand the price. Breakfast was also included and was itself excellent.

The Craven Heifer was an ideal place for visiting the sights of North Yorkshire. The breakfast was made to order and plentiful and we enjoyed the two dinners we ate in the hotel. Our room was comfortable but did have a few cobwebs and overlooked the road which meant we could not have the window open due to the traffic noise. The bar was small and in the early evening we had tins alternative places to sit for a drink as there were no available seats. Overall we enjoyed our stay and the hotel met our needs as a base to visit the area.

We have stayed at The Craven Heifer many times and have never been disappointed. All the staff are polite & friendly. Our room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The food, both dinner & breakfast, was excellent. Another 10/10 and I know we will be back again in the future.

The rooms were faultless and it was a very quiet and comfortable night's sleep. Maybe would have been even better with a buffet part to the breakfast too although the staff were helpful and no issues bringing the food.

A supremely comfortable inn-hotel with excellent food. But sadly, the wireless internet connection was, for me, complete pants all weekend.

Happy over all
The room was very clean when I arrived. Friendly staff when checking in and throughout. There’s plenty of drinks choice when in room even without the bar downstairs. Even though the room was on the main road, traffic noise was very little and didn’t bother me at all.
