Carole United Kingdom

Lovely hotel in a beautiful location. Evening meal and breakfast were both outstanding. This was not our first time staying and not our last.

Steve United Kingdom

Beautiful food, lovely accommodation, fantastic setting

Anna United Kingdom

What is now the Red Lion Hotel is a building that has many uses over 100’s of years. It retains all the charm of the ‘old days’ but meets current travelers needs for Wi-Fi and amenities. All of the staff were exceedingly cheerful, pleasant, professional, and accommodating. We ate breakfast and dinners at the hotel. The food was fabulous. Our favorite dessert was the hot, toffee, sticky pudding. /. The Red Lion Hotel, in the small village of Burnsall, is the a great location of walking trails and Yorkshire scenery.

Low score for Burnsall

In the beautiful Yorkshire Dales, The Red Lion at Burnsall is a 16th-century inn offering an award-winning restaurant, fine wines, and a traditional bar with Thwaites real ales.

This welcoming establishment consists of 2 properties close to each other on the banks of the river Wharfe: The Red Lion Hotel and The Manor House Guest House. There is free parking on site.

Full of period character, the homely rooms feature a comfy double bed, sofa to relax in and a stylish en suite stocked with luxurious toiletries.

The AA Rosette-awarded restaurant at The Red Lion has oak floors and river views, and features a traditional menu of local produce. Parts of the bar date back to the 1500s, and a range of drinks are served.

You can enjoy picturesque walks around the village, and along the River Wharfe, which passes under the beautiful 5-arch bridge. Private fishing is possible, and the hotel can offer tickets for guests.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.6 for a two-person trip.
