A note from the site themselves...

We have welcomed over 100 motorhomes in the three years we have had the pub and have enjoyed meeting new people and recommending places to visit.

Our passion is providing an experience for people. Not just the food they eat or the service we provide, but how we make people feel and how can we make people's time with us and visiting York as full as possible.

Our reviews show how much we care about our business. We look forward to welcoming new people.
