On arrival we were welcomed by Sally who was very nice and helpful. She gave us the front door key, our room key and talked us through things. The room was clean and comfortable with a double bed, tv and bathroom in one room plus two single beds in an adjoining room. There was a free car park alongside the property. Complimentary tea, coffee and milk were provided. Just a few minutes' drive from Thirsk the property has a very good location. A one-night stay in the family room is very good value for money.

Room was spacious. Staff lovely, though disorganised & weren’t expecting us. Didn’t know we hadn’t paid. Food in pub was lovely.

Some interesting shops, Herriots was good value for money and the walks around the town were lovely although there was snow on the ground. Good entertainment in the Golden Fleece watching the staff cock up all the orders for meals and drinks! Beware of the unpleasant traffic warden who comes all the way from Scarborough so has to earn his corn and also the pieman opposite Neros which we happen to cross swords with.Staff in Herons and the Coop were exceptionally helpful.

Thirsk is a lovely place to visit.
Thirsk is a lovely place to visit. There are many cosy teashops (Upstairs, Downstairs was our preferred choice with a great selection of snacks, main meals (including daily specials) and cakes! A great Italian restaurant (Bianco), which I can highly recommend - but do book - we booked for a Wednesday evening and it was very busy! There is also a good selection of bakeries for yummy cakes, cookies and breads! Lots of charity shops for a few bargains, Co-Op, Boots & WH Smith. There is also a large Tesco supermarket just out of the town.
A visit to Thirsk wouldn't be complete without a visit to The World of James Herriot - it was brilliant!
There is also a lot of parking, both short and long stay.
All in all a great time was had by us, and I wouldn't hesitate in returning to Thirsk again!

There were lots of local shops, cafes and a local market at the weekend. The old town centre was very quaint. It wasn't too busy or too quiet. There is a locally run cinema. It is less than 20mins on the train to York. The locals are friendly.

A lovely little town that has shops, a little market and nice cafe’s. You can see where James Herriot lived and worked and everything is in walking distance from where you park. There is plenty of parking and it’s free for an hour. It is a must see little town.
The property was beautifully presented and very clean. Allison was really clear with information about how to find and enter the property, and we received some lovely welcome chocolates once inside!
Property location was perfect, right in the centre of Thirsk and close to supermarkets, shops and cafes. just a few minutes walk to get some coffee and breakfast each morning!
Would definitely recommend staying at The Old Surgery for a weekend in Thirsk or to explore the local area.
The way we were greeted and put at ease from the start. This pub/hotel reminded me of how country pubs used to be. The whole community support this pub and its busy every night and the locals are great as they make you welcome
The food served here is some of the best we have eaten and the chef cooks it exactly as you want. The portions are perfect and always hot. The deserts are amazing.
We are recommending this hotel and are telling our friends about it.
Thanks guys.
The apartment was really great value for money. It was clean and spacious with everything we needed for our overnight stay. It is right in the middle of Thirsk town centre with shops, bars and restaurants only a couple of minutes away. We we given very easy and clear instructions on how to gain entry to the property and also given a free parking permit for a space only 3 mins walk away from the apartment.
Maybe the best B and B I've stayed in. Located just down the road from Thirsk race course where I was going. Easy to find on main road but no traffic noise in room. My room was well appointed and the other rooms were well decorated (A bit of Style) The full Yorkshire breakfast was excellent. Amanda the hoist was very helpful for local knowledge. It was so good I extended my stay.
Alex was top notch as a host. Excellent location for visiting the north moors as well as the Yorkshire dales. Everybody was friendly that we met at the Kings Arms we ended up talking to locals as well as residents. I want to go again as we only scratched at seeing the local scenery. We absolutely loved the North Yorkshire Moors and wondered why we had never been before.
This hotel was, for us, a hidden gem! It is situated in the centre of Thirsk (as would be expected for a former coaching inn) and it was a glorious experience.
None of my ‘dislikes’ will prevent us enjoying the hospitality of “The Golden Fleece” in future (although, in recommending it, I realise I’m (potentially) compromising that possibility!)
The cottage was cosy, well appointed and freshly decorated to a high standard. Plentiful pots & pans, crockery and cutlery. The garden was pretty with a comfortable covered seating area that wasn't overlooked by neighbours; we were even visited by a very cute hedgehog! The town square is only a couple of minutes walk away.
The room was clean and contained everything we would need for our visit. We loved having exclusive access to the pool, hot tub and sauna. The grounds of the building and the location of the hotel are both beautiful. We visited Helmesley, Thirsk and Northallerton and took a lovely walk around the gardens.
Just outside Thirsk, in an excellent position for visiting the North Yorkshire area. Modern accommodation with own entrance and good quality furnishings. Very well equipped and spotlessley clean. Andrea is a lovely host, she couldn't be more helpful and her breakfasts were super. We hope to return.
This hotel is just right where the room, service and food combined to make the stay a good one. The room was small but worked well, both the breakfast and the meal in the restaurant in the evening were very good. The staff were very good, polite and friendly and very professional.
Beautiful peaceful location. A very comfortable cosy cottage with an excellent kitchen which has everything you would need for a self catering break. Would definitely return if in the area and would recommend to others.
Spotlessly clean, comfortable and cosy cottage. Great location with only a short walk to the centre of Thirsk. Welcome pack is a lovely touch. Everything you need to make it a home from home.
