Sykes House Bed & Breakfast Askrigg

Review by hotel critic

As a travel enthusiast hailing from the bustling state of New York, I had the pleasure of staying at this charming bed and breakfast during my recent trip to the picturesque village of Hawes. the large bedroom and bathroom were tastefully decorated, offering a cozy retreat after a day of exploring the stunning Yorkshire Dales. The hosts, Alison and Michael, were the epitome of hospitality - friendly and attentive without being intrusive. One of the highlights of our stay was the delicious breakfast spread served in the dining room. the perfectly cooked local produce set us up for the day ahead, and the character-filled ambiance of the room added to the overall experience. the value for money was exceptional, with the kitchen/lounge available for a mere £10 - a steal considering the comfort and convenience it provided. The room itself was spacious and full of character, with a lovely en-suite bathroom and all the amenities one could need, including ironing facilities and an electric kettle for a quick cup of tea. the attention to detail, from the soft linen on the comfortable bed to the delicious homemade biscuits, did not go unnoticed. The location of the B&B was perfect for sightseeing and walking, with several pubs in the village offering evening entertainment. the proximity to the town of Hawes meant that we were never far from shops, restaurants, and cafes, making it easy to explore the local area. Overall, our experience at this bed and breakfast was nothing short of delightful. the combination of excellent service, comfortable facilities, and stunning surroundings made for a truly memorable stay. I would highly recommend this B&B to anyone looking for a peaceful and inviting retreat in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales.
