The Stapylton Arms, hotel in Helmsley

Located in Wass, 34 km from Flamingo Land Theme Park, The Stapylton Arms provides accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a restaurant.

I'm always a little torn with regard to giving reviews when we stay somewhere nice as it just encourages more people to stay then we can't get a room when we want one! In this case, however, the place was so good, I couldn't keep quiet.... The staff were all excellent - friendly, polite and accommodating. The room wasn't massive but was very comfortable and well equipped. The bar was great - small and traditional. The beer was excellent and well kept and the food was outstanding. I cannot recommend the Stapylton highly enough and will definitely be returning. One tip - the restaurant is soooooo popular that I would recommend booking in advance....

    Excellent range of small independent shops. Very pretty village. Must accept parking limited so use main car park to give you time to walk around and enjoy the place. Good range of eateries and take away options.

    This is a lovely market town with individual shops, and friendly staff. We also did a fabulous walk along the Cleveland Way to Rievaulx Abbey and back. There is a diverse choice of restaurants in the square, and several pubs/hotels. We had fabulous food at The Feathers Hotel where we stayed, and Bantams Restaurant.

    What a perfect location with so much to see and do within a short distance. Great food establishments in town from the Fish n Chip shop to what we think is the best Indian we've ever visited (& we live close to Bradford). Three lovely pubs that are all different & we even find the locals a friendly bunch too.

    Our cottage was gorgeous! It was cute, practical, warm, so quiet and the scenery was just amazing! We had our own little fenced off courtyard area so our dog could nip out for a sniff without us worrying that she's escape. The location was fabulous! We were a 10 minute drive from Helmsley and there was a little welcome folder with lots of restaurant and attraction recommendations. We've already recommended Valley View Farm Holiday Cottages to our friends and we can't wait to visit again!

    Stilworth house is in the heart of Helmsley, an absolutely gorgeous town. Our host Carol was wonderful, the breakfast was amazing. Our room was perfect for us and it's situation in the centre of town meant that we could pop in and drop off any shopping etc. Carol gave us excellent recommendations including things to see and places to eat. We absolutely adored the town and are planning our return (hopefully with other family members!). Can highly recommend this wonderful b&b.

    We loved the hotel, it was in a perfect spot and even though our room (number 3) was next to the church so we had a lot of ringing of the bells, the double glazing was good and we rather enjoyed hearing them, adding to the experience of being in Helmsley. The breakfast was great, staff were wonderful

    Harry and Lisa welcomed us like friends right from the start. The B and B was clean, tastefully decorated, comfortable and had all the amenities needed. They both were very helpful providing tourist suggestions. Breakfast was lovely as well. We enjoyed our time at the Carlton lodge very much.

    We have stayed here before. Helmsley is lovely; the Black Swan is now more of a pub with rooms- previously it was like a higher end hotel. Food is OK and reasonably priced and Helmsley is a great place to explore the local area- and it is great in its own right.

    Helmsley is beautiful and the hotel is perfectly located in the centre. The staff were all exceptional. The room was compact but clean and comfortable. Although the hotel car park was full, parking overnight on the street nearby was free and no problem.

    The property was very central to Helmsley, we liked the fact that the village was literally on your doorstep. The accommodation was very spacious and comfortable, however we felt it did lack certain essentials.
