Masons Freehouse

First meal at the Masons and it was excellent both had the roast Sunday Lunch plenty on the plate and cooked to a tee plenty of gravy to help yourself to. Staff were very pleasant and helpful. Both came away fit to burst which was a shame as i would have liked to try a sweat ah well maybe next time as we will defo go again.

Bedroom - tiny room. Poor quality double bed (no bigger). Huge gap under the door. No soundproofing from the pub downstairs. Can hear every sound and word until almost 1am! Not what you want when you’ve been hiking all day. Bathroom tiny, too. Food - fish pie had mussels, calamari rings and worst of all, pieces of crab stick!! ***? A proper fish pie contains chunks of salmon, white fish and prawns. No wonder they didn’t put the ingredients on the menu. What was most annoying, after the music stopped at circa 11:45pm, you could hear every word spoken downstairs. I had to resort to strong meditation to help me get to sleep. Didn’t feel like there was any consideration from the owner.

Wonderful break This is the second time we've stayed at the Mason Freehouse, it was lovely the first time we stayed, which made us keen to return. Although it is now under new management, it's clear that the lovely, friendly, warm welcoming atmosphere is something the staff are keen to retain. We're looking forward to coming back and staying again, as the plans for new menus sound fantastic. Room sizes and facilities are very adequate for a short stay. The location is very central for the surrounding walks, caves, lakes and other activities. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Stayed here on an overnight exploring Yorkshire Dales. On arrival announced ourselves as no-one at bar we were greeted with "we are here...just wait". Taken to room up a very tight staircase, advised we could use the fridge outside the room & then left to it without a key for the room. Room lovely & bed comfy, fan provided great as it was warm. I love traffic noise but for anyone who doesn't...this place is on a MAJOR main road with trucks passing at all hours. We put water we had bought in the fridge & discovered the following morning it had been stolen! Advised the male host on departure & he didn't seem bothered. Nice place but customer service & security lacking

Friendly staff Good service and friendly staff, decent food as well. Very close to the waterfalls walk which is worthwhile doing. Road is quite noisy if you’re a light sleeper but I didn’t have an issue.

Did not stay at the hotel. Called in for a meal and what a find! The staff were very friendly and attentive. Food was very good, especially the steak and ale pie and the limoncello cheesecake. During our 10 day stay in the area only one meal was better, but it was also 3 times the price. The staff checked for allergies before we ordered our food Would definitely go there again and would recommend.
