Good size room, although steep steps up to it, so especially difficult with luggage. Also steps up to the bathroom. Lovely warm welcome from the staff and very helpful when asked about local amenities and transport. Bar can get busy especially on weekend nights. Food and drink both excellent with a full and reasonably priced menu to choose from. Car park close to the pub can get busy, but was always able to find a place when required.

Lovely place, twin room was spacious and en-suite shower room very nice. My only issue was as the room was lovely and warm, I needed to open the window which allowed the noise from the busy road outside to disturb me, this is my issue as being too warm bothers me, no fault at all of the establishment, the doubling glazing prevented all noise, just a warning to others if room on the front. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay otherwise and would happily recommend to others

Worst Hotel Ever

On the morning of our second day the toilet became blocked. We informed staff at 9.00am. We spent the day out and returned at midnight. The room had not been cleaned, the bed was not made and the toilet not fixed. The water was almost overflowing. We called emergency number and guy came out. He tried to unblock it but said the pump was not working. By this time the sewage water was coming up into the shower. He laid the plunger on the floor which left waste water on floor. He then left and said we would get a full refund. We were left with no toilet or washing facilities. We received a call on the Sunday evening and offered a refund for the one night. We still have not received this but I feel we should have a full refund and compensation for the inconvenience of having no facilities and having to endure the smell coming from the toilet .

Unfortunately due to a last minute change of management the restaurant and pub part of this hotel was shut for a refurb, (although it was due to reopen the next night) but they did contact us a few days before to let us know this and said breakfast would still be served but if we needed food of the evening (as we were not due to arrive until late) there were local places or take-aways available. The rooms we had were clean and spacious, on-site worm and clean. The staff we met who on arrival were very friendly and helpful apologising for the mess downstairs (mainly new equipment for the pub/restaurant. We met the new owner at breakfast(which was very good and well presented) who had no taken over 6 days before he was very friendly and has great plans for The Farmers Arms and we will definitely be going back it was a pity we were only booked in for the one night this time.

We had booked bed and breakfast with an extensive choice including cereal toast full english excetra all in with the price.In addition to this orange juice tea or coffee was unlimited.The food was prepared fresh and once again the staff were very friendly just what you would expect in a Yorkshire pub.All together excellent value we will certainly try to call again when in the area

The impression of this accommodation was although it was clean there didn’t seem to be anybody there (manager/owner) who had overall charge of customer service. The breakfast although well presented seemed to be served in a chaotic manner and when it did arrive the toast and main breakfast was cold. Also we were woken at 4am by some guests coming in shouting and banging about. This is not ideal as we had nobody to complain to. I felt that this accommodation fell short of providing the service we expect.

First impressions entering the bar reception area were good with friendly surroundings and pleasant staff.

Unfortunately behind the scenes the accommodation was poor even allowing for it being an old building. There is no excuse for a bed where the mattress is 6" smaller on width and length than the base and where the slats under the mattress are screwed onto the frame with projecting screw heads; positively dangerous.

Friendly staff in a traditional roadside inn

The Farmers Arms is easy to find on a B road, a short drive from the market town of Richmond and not far from the A1. It's a relatively old building, so expect sash windows and Saniflo toilets, but the twin room looked recently decorated and was of a good size. This may be an odd comment, but the bedding smelt great - wish I had their detergent! The heating worked wonderfully. The pub stopped playing music at a reasonable time and I had a comfortable night. Some traffic noise is to be expected, due to the proximity to the main road and the single glazed windows.

All the staff were very welcoming and helpful and the breakfast was bigger than usual - I didn't go for full English, but selecting toast got me 6 full slices. I also had dinner there and there was a good choice on the menu.

There is plenty of free parking both on the forecourt of the pub and in a car park round the back by the beer garden (which might be more convenient for unloading and loading the car, as the entrance to the bedrooms is round the back).

All in all I had a comfortable stay at a reasonable price, ideally situated for the next stage of my journey to Richmond and points north.

Room was made to feel homely with the little touches, the staff were lovely and couldn't do enough for us. The breakfast was great, full English I would order again. This is a room above a pub so there is noise from the pub until later on (we booked on quiz night so there was a slight bit extra) but we still slept through it. So maybe take ear plugs if you're a light sleeper. And there's also a Saniflow system which is always in these older buildings, just meant we couldn't flush the toilet in the middle of the night as we didn't want to wake people up with the noise. Not off putting, just something I think people might want to know. All in all a lovely stay, and the garden is massive and lovely seats front and back to relax.

Very noisey

Overall the place is lovely but as somewhere to sleep - no, to eat, yes so my review has mixed feelings.

Food - we only ate here the one night, which was our first night stopping. My son ate off the childrens menu & myself & husband ate off the 2 for £13.95 which we both enjoyed.

The breakfast each morning was lovely & cooked to perfection. We had to order by 9pm the night before what we wanted & for what time also, which was fine. The first two mornings we were greeted by a gentleman chef & our table was set for what we ordered but the third morning we were greeted by a lady chef who did things slightly different - no tea/coffee cups ready, no cereals out for my son & she got the order wrong so we had to wait. Not a problem, but the main issue is the cleaner who is doing her job in the main bar area where you eat breakfast, thats fine if you don't mind chewing on polish as you eat your bacon, or inhaling bleach as you sip your luke warm cup of tea. It felt uncomfortable & as if you were invading her space, not the other way round.
On a whole though the food is lovely & if in the area ever again I would eat here & certainly recomend it.

Now for the accommodation - we were in the family room which sleeps four, on first impressions it is very nicely decorated & modern, my sons room was separate from ours which is a plus factor. Then we walked in & literally every floorboard creaked, the windows are single glazed so very noisey outside & also the pub is noisey.

Stayed for one night in a family room. Very comfortable and children liked it. Food was excellent - we had dinner and breakfast. Handy place to stay with Richmond very close and Catterick racecourse is just up the road. Staff very friendly and helpful.
