to get started.

The croissants were the best I've had in years.

Rachel, United Kingdom

Charming establishment beautifully furnished and staff who know what hospitality is. Our second floor room was spacious with a very roomy en suite over looking the market square .

Eleanor, United Kingdom

This is the second time we have stayed here this time we took two friends from abroad - unfortunately the place has had a "face lift" to us it has lost its charm of the old bar and intimate restaurant and it's can do anything for you by the staff - whilst it is certainly clean , tidy and modern it also now feels impersonal to us and just like any other chain hotel which is a pity - I am sure though many others will like it's new look but it wasn't for us

Kevin, United Kingdom

One of our top picks in Thirsk.

Situated between the Yorkshire Moors and Yorkshire Dales National Parks, this hotel is listed as one of England's oldest coaching inns and overlooks the cobbled market place in Thirsk.

The Golden Fleece is a comfortable hotel with individually designed en suite rooms equipped with amenities to make you feel at home. Food is home-cooked using local produce, and the service is relaxed and friendly.

The hotel is well-located for exploring the North Yorkshire countryside by foot or by car. The area is home to Aysgarth Falls, Sutton Bank and the World of James Herriot, and you can visit the beautiful Fountains Abbey or Castle Howard.

눉The face lift and the changes made to the bar and restaurant- which has a very different menu of old and food not available

눉I thought the food was lovely. Also restaurant and bar where very nice, loved the decor.
눇We were in the mews room 19, which was very small but had all that was needed for our stay. Only one problem with the room, the carpet had a strong smell of vomit. I would stay at hotel again but not in that room. A lso was a little disappointed that you could not get a drink after 11 o'clock.

눉Most things were up to scratch with very little that we didn't like. The bowls at the Breakfast were frequently not clean enough (specks of debris from washing); and one of the other guests thought the double rooms were small. Ours was fine, but others did look quite a bit smaller.
눇Good location in busy market town near the North Yorkshire Moors. Easy access to the local major roads; nearby station and sights. Plenty of excellent independent stores in the market place. The food in the "Eatery" was very good; perfect for a late arrival on a Sunday evening - the pie of the day was delicious! Two comfortable lounges made a wet day enjoyable. Breakfasts were included in our price and were filling, we only ate in the evening!
