To really get away from it all, or explore The North Yorkshire Moors, The Inn at Hawnby fits the bill perfectly. In a tiny isolated village, this award-winning inn is truly cut off from the world. There are nine en-suite rooms in the main stone house and the converted stables. All are equipped with TV, tea and coffee making facilities and bottle of local spring-water. The Inn at Hawnby has a lovely garden, with views over the countryside for miles, where guests can sit out. There is free Wi-Fi and parking. The popular AA accredited restaurant, The Mexborough Room, serves fine food and a fish and chip special on Friday nights. The cosy bar, frequented by villagers, offers fine Yorkshire ales. The magnificent ruins of Rievaulx Abbey and picturesque Helmsley, with its quaint shops, cafes and castle, are both less than 15 minutes drive, or a nice healthy walk away.
Guests are drawn to The Inn for its tranquility and calming setting. They simply adore the views from the gardens, the restaurant and some rooms over the barren moors. Although the isolation is charming, guests are reassured that Helmsley is not too far away and the main attractions of the North Yorkshire Moors and the coast are within easy reach.
After a day out on the moors, guests love being able to return to the cosy and homely atmosphere of the inn. The big comfortable beds help recuperate for another day out hiking or exploring the countryside.
Most guests find the owners and staff highly accommodating and friendly, as well as being professional.
Lots of guests revel in being cut off from the world. However certain amongst them find it difficult to extend that to their mobile phones. Very poor or inexistent connections can be a joy for some, a minor inconvenience for others or just plainly annoying - especially business clients.
Regulating room temperatures seems to be an issue. The weather on the moors can be harsh at times and some guests find the rooms too cold. On the other hand, when the heat is turned up other guests find the rooms unbearably hot. The owners may need to find an improved system of regulating the temperature.
Although the traditional feel of the inn is craved, some feel that it is a bit tired and worn out in places. Broken or inadequate bathroom fittings and dated furnishings don't match with many people's expectations of a four-star inn. Many guests think it is time that it is done up a bit as and given a new lease of life.
