With parts of the building dating back 700 years, this former coaching inn stands on the market square in the ancient city of Ripon, at the gateway to the Yorkshire Dales.

This is a small town, compact, quiet and handily placed just off the A1. It is ideally situated between the Yorkshire Dales, the North York Moors and the facilities of York. There are a range of places to eat and drink, most within a short walk of each other.

It was only a short journey from the motorway. The Grantham Aims s located by a roundabout .On the other side of he road is the Ure river which has a beautiful waterfall.. There wasn't a great deal of road noise, despite the closeness of the road. We didn't explore the area as we were on route to Scotland, it only took 10mins to join the North bound A1.

We stopped here just to break our journey to Hadrians Wall.
We stopped here just to break our journey to Hadrians Wall. We wouldn't have been here otherwise, but it proved a very good stopping off point and a pleasant place to relax in. We bought provisions for our self-catering stay at Appleby's pork butchers and food for the journey/lunch when we got to our holiday cottage. The individual pork pies with black pudding were excellent. They do the best savoury duck I've ever had - at 85p this is a bargain and feeds two (look up savoury duck if you're not a Northerner - it's like a small haslet - do you need to look that up too? - sort of pate combined with a haggis best describes it.) We had really good lamb chops from them and smoked bacon. Called in again on our return. Lots of cafes in Boroughbridge - one in particular caters for cyclists and uses bike parts in its decor and does good value food to eat in or take away. We had a drink at the Black Bull, a classic old-style pub. It was very quiet when we were there (late Thursday evening) but very welcoming. Their summer pale ale was a lovely bright refreshing drink.
Walk between Boroughbridge and Aldeburgh takes about 15 minutes and there is a pleasant pub serving a range of beers including Theakstons. The Theakstones light was a bit lifeless compared with more modern craft beers, but OK. The Roman Town is at Aldeburgh, well signposted but only open Frday, Saturday and Sunday.
Check out the two charity shops too, and the shop selling real brushes and brooms and metal dustpans, and coir doormats. There is also an excellent hardware shop with just about everything you might need (we bought some coat hooks)
We stayed at the Crown - comfortable, good value, recently refurbished in witty luxurious style. Good food and helpful staff.
Rooms was fantastic extra comfortable / Yorkshire themed . Great location in picture postcard small town village .
Lots of little extras in there Yorkshire cushions decor ect someone made a real effort to make the room appealing for guests . Even the kettle was a top quality kettle .
I would describe hotel as traditional hotel pub restaurant in one . Had meals and that too was good value in traditional surroundings .
Menu was great choice and food fantastic
All staff was great .
Parking available on site.
Simply superb apartment, tastefully decorated, extremely well laid-out, quiet and also sparkling clean. Parking is secure and convenient. Lots of touches to make you feel at home, including fluffy towels, comfy pillows, throws and thoughtful amenities such as coffee, tea, milk and toiletries are provided. Boroughbridge is conveniently situated for visiting many local attractions and is a charming town with some nice shops and restaurants. We would return in a heartbeat!
After my last few bookings being in functionally effective airport hotels, what a pleasure to experience a characterful hotel like Grantham Arms, in a pretty little historic town like Boroughbridge. Lovely welcoming staff throughout, quirkily humorous Yorkshire elements of décor in the bedrooms, homely little rooms for dining, beautifully presented plates at dinner and breakfast - a joy throughout!
This is a great apartment, very close to the centre of Boroughbridge. We have family in the area and we'd love to stay here regularly when we visit.
Really nice decor, plenty of room for a couple, lots of information from the hosts and great communication throughout. Lovely little details like some complimentary snacks and an electric blanket on the bed.
2nd time we'd stayed here.
The accommodation had all we needed for our stay, a big fridge, oven microwave etc. Oh, and its lovely and warm.
We were provided with huge bath sheets, which was fantastic.
There is a parking space
It's only a short walk into Boroughbridge and all its amenities.
our stay was perfect we travelled with a dog and all was accommodated, the room was beautifully furnished and the food was divine, . Breakfast was excellent , but at an extra cost.
couple of minutes to the centre of Boroughbridge , great stay
Brilliant range of breakfast options, including vegetarian.
Location idyllic surrounded by open countryside but only 5 minutes from Boroughbridge
Heard the cockerel and peacocks but certainly not intrusive, added to the ambience
Very friendly staff, beautiful and clean throughout the hotel. Great extra touches of books and games in room and through the hotel. Excellent food evening and breakfast. Bed comfortable, shower great and all toiletries included
Lovely hotel. Character rooms, super comfy bed, friendly staff, delicious dinner and awesome choice of breakfast from full english to Eggas Royale which was better and better value than Premier Inn.
Lovely staff. Brilliant breakfast. The room was a little small but as we only use hotels as a base and don't spend a lot of time in the room we managed. Swimming pool and facilities very good.
Staff were very friendly and the standard of the rooms were fantastic for the price. Very clean everywhere and the breakfast was of a high standard. Dog friendly.
