Maypole Inn

Stayed for 3 nights .We could forgive all of its shortcomings if the bed ( fit for live stock) had not been so awfull. Best described as salvaged from a scrap yard. The two joined single beds were unfit for use. Incredibly naive . The single most important thing to offer any traveller is a good quality matress. We paid £100 per night so if the owners dedicated £3 of every £100 to a matress replacement fund they could invest in a new £8-£900 ( double/king) matress every 300 nights !! ( last time I checked there were 365 days in a year. At that rate they could afford to replace matress every year. Lets be honest back home where we all sleep on matress the best part of a year , matress are typically replaced every eight years. My point is there is nor excuse using recycled junk matress unless you hold visitors in contempt or you are not a serious host. Friendly breakfast staff ( breakfast not great ( certainly not like the picture) and atmosphere drab ) Hosts nowhere to be seen. Room decor ok , certainly tried , temperature fine . Lighting needs working on.Coffee machine just for show.Bathroom reasonable presentation , had made some effort but insufficient water pressure for anything other than hand held light shower.Shame that said bathroom was beset with sewer gases ,most unpleasant. The Maypole Inn is a pub first and foremost and probably a good pub, and has it would seem a decent restaurant following but there was no comfort at the Inn what so ever . Why play at being a hotel if you dont understand the basics .

Stayed in the village for two nights, had evening meal at the Maypole both evenings. Staff were friendly, and the food was really good and plentiful. We booked in for breakfast on our last morning in the area. Breakfast was good. Good choice of beers.

We popped in on our way back from a day out. What delicious food. We both had pate to start then I had the Sunday roast while my husband ordered the pie. All was cooked to perfection. Will definitely return when passing again. Also good value for money.

4 of us popped in on friday 6th Sept for lunch. My friend has visited before and we were out for visits to the Dales, He suggested we dine at the Maypole, how right he was with his choice. 3 had the scampi, served with wonderfully prepared salad and coleslaw, 1 had the steak and ale pie, also with a side salad. The pie was equisite, with a lovely pastry top and filled with steak ingravy to the top. What sets the Maypole apart, 2 ordered chips 2 ordered new potatoes with the meals. They arrived seperate in a turin, the chips were plentiful and home cooked, the quantity was excellent. The new potatoes were smoothered in butter. Lovely. Oh, the ales on offer, our favourite, Timothy Taylors landlord and Black Sheep.. The driver had none i,m afraid. Too full for a pudding. They also have a specials board with tempting offers. An excellent meal in a perfect Pub and location.

Told them I was gluten tolerance and received my Sunday lunch with yorkshire pudding on and gravy with gluten in its was cold and my tea came in a pot so after the first cup the rest of the tea was cold. Staff were nice although the service was slow to say it wasn't busy

Just passing and called in for a meal. One of us had fish and chips and the other sirloin steak. The fish had soggy batter and tasted as though it had come out of the freezer, the sirloin steak had been battered with a meat hammer, why ? Ordered the steak rare and it came out medium to well done, when there was no salad garnish on the plate we asked for a side salad, the chef/waiter basically said he couldn't do one so left it at that, the great girl behind the bar sorted that out and got one organised and didn't charge us for the steak, thank you. Good beer and wine but don't think we will be back
