Our staying at the Witching Post Inn could have not been better. Our room was spacious and very confortable. And the place has a lot of personality and history. If you want to know the roots of this place you can speak to the landlord, Pete. But more important Pete makes you feel at home, as you are part of the family. The stories, the jokes and the environment in the pub is so cosy that makes you feel you are between friends. And don't look anywhere else for food and drinks. We had dinner in here during the Parmo night, and the food was fantastic, one of the best we had in the area. And this includes the beer and gins. Also, we vouch for the breakfast, the full breakfast is delicious and we couldn't get enough of it. If you are staying the area, please do yourself a favor and stay at the Witching Post Inn. I am glad we chose this place for our staying, and a big thanks to Pete and all the staff for the lovely and welcoming staying

Had a busy first day exploring and was fairly late back to the cottage to check in. We called to see if there was a chance of a last minute booking. The Landlord Pete explained the restaurant was packed out but assured us he'd fit us in. We were greeted with a warm welcome, even though the staff were extremely busy. The food was amazing and we didn't feel rushed. Returned the next night to feel equally comfortable and enjoyed another night of great food and good company. Would recommend this place 100%.

Our normal Hotel was full so we booked in at the Witching Post Inn. Turned out to be an excellent choice, nice rooms, well priced, good food and beer. Staff very helpfull, the young Lady behind the bar was very efficient, nothing was too much trouble. Well done Pete you have a good package on offer.

Cosy traditional pub with great pale ale and super food. We had a Thai curry special and the best steak pie I’ve had in a very long time. Lovely tasty steak in a guiness gravy was beautiful with freshly cooked and flavoursome veg and chips….the owner came out to check we were having a good time, a warm and friendly approach and a nice way to spend a few hours on Easter Monday. We will be back, thank you

Old-school low ceiling country Inn with bags of character sat with the backdrop of the North Yorkshire Moors National Park. We went on a Sunday so the menu was limited to a traditional roast, two meats, and a vegan option. (Which was a rather delicious sounding Butternut Squash and Beetroot Wellington) We went for the meats.. food was very nice, staff were pleasant and at £19 quid each including a drink, pretty good value too. Well worth a visit if you're in the area on a Sunday.
