    Stayed here for three nights. Extremely friendly bar staff and you can stay for free if you eat there. What more can you ask for?

    We stayed here last night in our Motorhome. It was our first visit and we found out about them through P4N. Rang ahead as only 2 spots for motorhomes. Staff were lovely. Had food in the Pub and consequently stay was free (thank you). Food was amazing. Kids rated it a 9/10 because it took a while to come but worth the wait. No hook up. Kids play area. Could do more gravel on ground as very muddy.

    This place is amazing. The staff are so lovely and the food is incredible. We have staid several nights trying the home made pies and roast meats. They serve vegetarian and gluten free too. The portion sizes are massive! Well recommend.

    Great stopover. only 2 pitches for motorhomes so phone ahead recommended. Excellent food. Big portions and an amazing selection of pies. i had sweet and sour chicken pie with cobbler top(suet dumplings). Wife had steak and Stilton. Pitch area is overflow car park to side under trees. Gravel and grass but very level. Stopped here several times great for access to south Leeds & M1. Some road noise.

    Really friendly. I was late for food so they asked to put a few quid in the charity jar instead. Definitely recommended and the beers aren’t bad either!

    On arrival I met a confused old man who went to ask about arrangements for overnight parking. After a bit of consultation he asked me for £10. I was tired so I gave him the money to park on the "scrub car park" It's the first time I've used park 4night so I'm a bit put off, especially since there are no facilities. Never mind, I'll try again and see if I can find some good places.

    I have been staying in this pubs car park one night per month for the past 4 months. As a single female I was a little apprehensive but everything was fine. I felt safe in my van. The landlady advised me they lived in the pub and would be there if I needed them. Food was lovely. Massive portions. They specialise in a variety of pies. So nice. Did not notice any road noise at all.

    The pub is nice, food was really good with generous portions. There is a fair bit of road noise as others have mentioned but not terrible.

    Stayed overnight en route to Bernard Castle. I phoned in advance to check. Such a friendly welcome. Food was excellent, real home cooked. There was a bit of noise from the nearby main road but more a steady hum that was not distracting. And opposite is a field and a decent dog walk. Couldn’t have had anything better for a night stop as a solo traveller.

    What a great place to spend a night. excellent food with real ales and dog friendly worth a visit just to taste the food. Nice and busy with a great atmosphere landlady Steph is a fantastic host. Only problem is the main road going past which kept us awake most of the night.

    As soon as we entered the car park a really lovely friendly lady met us and said we were welcome to stay if we ate in the pub. The food and drink was amazing and very good value, 3 mains, 1 dessert, 6 drinks £59. Very quiet restful safe night (maybe that was the beer). Staff were very chatty, friendly, helpful. Parking was flat, free WiFi, limited to a few vans I think. Worth it for amazing food.

    We stopped here on the way home after reading the review’s. They were correct, this pub is the friendliest pub Iv been to and we’re 100% happy with us staying the night in our camper van. Fantastic quality food as well.

    We Rang ahead and they were very friendly, you can put £10 in the charity box for the air ambulance or have a meal. We took our dog in the bar area for an evening meal . The place we parked was flat and we had a very peaceful night sleep. Access to the M1 was easy for our onwards journey.

    Stayed here on the July 4th. Nice and quiet. We phoned ahead and was able to hold a late food order (Sunday dinner), which was epic. Very friendly, and very helpful. Totally would visit again,
