I booked our accommodation online. Its location (ten minutes walk from the train station) is perfect, right on the Crescent Terrace on the West Cliff. Our room was the Classic Bay, spacious, light and comfortable with a great view of the North Sea. The owners, the Gallaghers, were gracious hosts, friendly and very accommodating of our requests and our needs (we left very early on our last morning, prior to breakfast, but they provided a very satisfying boxed meal. Breakfasts are a special treat, with a variety of choices, tasty food properly cooked and politely served by the attentive waitstaff. I should also mention that the price is quite competitive, also. For a three-night stay, they offer a discount of 5%, so ours was 95 pounds per night ($147). All in all, a real treat!!

To most people who watch or have watched Heartbeat this place will be known to them as the…read moreAidensfield Arms. It is as shown on the programme complete with grumpy miserable landlord. A lot of pictures of actors in the program along with other memorabilia. The place is fairly busy with tourists as you would expect in fact the whole village is, as a lot of the filming for Heartbeat is done here on location in the village itself. The North Yorkshire Moors railway has a stop here so again this makes it very busy. The hotel offers accommodation and a range of food but we didn't eat here as the range didn't appeal to us, had a couple of drinks and left. Beer served is average but there are plenty others around offering better food and fayre.

The hotel is literally something out of a Jane Austen novel. Everyone was so pleasant and accommodating. Unlike American hotels, people actually use the lobbies/lounge areas to relax and spend time. When we arrived we were shown to our rooms. We had a great view of the dales. The room was warm, bathroom heated. As soon as we finished refreshing ourselves, my husband and I went down to explore. My in-laws followed about a half hour later and we sat in one of the parlours. They brought us champagne and appetizers while we looked through the menu. And when we were ready we were ushered into the dining room which was absolutely beautiful. We had a 3 course meal. We did the exact same thing the next evening, but different food. The food was amazing. Every dish was so delicious! We had breakfast every morning too and it was simple. Good and simple. After a 3 course meal, you really don't want to go all out the next day. Our weekend stay was worth the drive.

We sat in the dining room area and it was very tired and worn, sit in the Pub area instead. Outside seating is very smoky. No A/C or even ceiling fans especially since we were in the new set of rooms. No one opened up the windows prior to our arrival and it was literally like an oven. As secluded as it is there is another hotel/restaurant nearby which we enjoyed better.
