Sue United Kingdom

Lovely pub in a beautiful quiet village. Great food and ale, lovely little cosy room. Staff were friendly and helpful, landlord was a happy and entertaining host. Lovely place to visit.

Ian United Kingdom

Great place to stay while on a driving holiday, great pub with accommodation. Food was excellent, best veggie breakfast ever (my wife tells me) 😀

Peter United Kingdom

The place is a typical English Inn. It’s warm and cozy. The staff is exceptional and so are the owners. The food is delicious.

Johanne Canada

Breakfast (full English) was fabulous. Dinner very good. Great little pub and very friendly owner and staff. Beautiful area and a great place to stay if planning visits into York.

Kevin United Kingdom

The idyllic location and lovely accomodation. Dogfriendly approach.

Kathy Belgium

Rooms were lovely and the pub had a friendly atmosphere. Food was really nice! Staff couldn’t do enough for us.

Searle United Kingdom

Excellent cooked breakfast or choices of cereal. Served at the time agreed by guests and staff. The evening meals were of a very high standard. Delicious steak from the local butcher. Pleasant dining room with bar nearby. Staff were always pleasant and willing to help guests. Being situated in the beautiful village of Bishop Wilton makes the Fleece pub a very special place. Lots of history linked with the village. The nearby Community Shop sells many essential products and is literally a short walk away. Handy for guests who may need souvenirs, toiletries or food for picnics. We were able to keep our small fold up bikes in our room as we do not have a car. The bus to Pocklington is regular. Our choice of cycling there was easy, the roads being fairly flat and about 4 miles. The bus to York from Pocklington holds 2 bicycles to get around more easily which we did as a journey.

Norman United Kingdom

We went for a Heritage weekend, we were welcomed and shown our room. Breakfast on each day was served piping hot. We had Sunday lunch with relatives which again was served piping hot. The whole weekend was perfect more so with the friendly atmosphere.

Sydney United Kingdom

We came back to stay again because we enjoyed our stay a few weeks before. It’s such a lovely location, the rooms are clean and comfortable and the staff are helpful and friendly.
