Fox & Hounds

This welcoming, Grade II listed family-run free house is full of character. A real community local, it has a down-to-earth bar and games room popular with locals and visitors alike. Good-value meals are served all week with a roast on Sundays and the dining room boasts an inglenook fireplace with quaint stone oven. Once a rest house for 15th century Jervaulx Abbey monks, it has a pleasant patio at the rear; beware the tight entry to the car park.
