"It’s difficult, because I can understand the wide range of reviews. The fact that there are no staff on site, coupled with an unusual door access system, makes thinking of this as a hotel (never mind the star rating) somewhat of a stretch. Having said that, a mobile number was provided if needed. Our room was clean (although somewhat dated) and had all the equipment we expected. One big issue that we only subsequently learned about was that some of the rooms did not have an en suite. Ours did (with a much-appreciated heated towel rail), but I would have been very annoyed if we had been allocated a room without. Make sure of your room number! The location is excellent. Parking is available, but limited, so don’t be the last to arrive. All in all, we enjoyed our stay and felt we had good value for money."

When is the best time to go to Wensley?
The best time to visit Wensley is during the late spring (May and June) and early autumn (September and October) months.During these periods, the weather is generally pleasant with milder temperatures and less rainfall than the peak summer or winter months. This makes it ideal for exploring the Wensleydale countryside, enjoying walks, and visiting local attractions without the larger crowds often seen in July and August. You'll find the landscape lush in spring and beautifully coloured in autumn, superb for photography and outdoor activities.For those who enjoy outdoor pursuits like hiking and cycling, late spring offers longer daylight hours and blooming wildflowers, making the trails particularly inviting. The footpaths around Bolton Castle and Aysgarth Falls are especially enjoyable during this time.Early autumn is also excellent for couples seeking a peaceful getaway and local food experiences. Many local farm shops and markets are well-stocked after the harvest, and you can enjoy hearty meals in country pubs by a roaring fire as the evenings draw in.
