The Pheasant Hotel

What a great find. We were looking for a quiet getaway for my wife’s birthday and this didn’t disappoint. I booked a 2 night foodie escape. The welcome we received upon check in was great and the service from all the staff thereafter was 5*. The food was great, service was great and the hotel itself was well appointed, maintained and had a lovely feel about it. We stayed in Ashdale which was just off reception and it was a good size and well appointed with the usual coffee & tea making facilities but there was also complimentary fruit, home made biscuits and a small bottle of sloe gin. There was a mini bar complete with complimentary water and fresh milk. The prices for the mini bar were also reasonable.||We’re were greeted with a birthday card for my wife’s and a bottle of champagne. The room also had robes, slippers and towels for the pool (which we didn’t get to try).||Absolutely 10/10 and would not hesitate to recommend. We will be back! Thanks Liam and all your staff 👍🏻

Having been familiar with the Pheasant as somebody who lives locally for many years, I hadn’t been for a while but had the festive lunch there with friends recently and it was an excellent experience all round. The service was first class - congratulations to Liam and all the staff for making the Pheasant such a warm and welcoming environment where nothing is too much trouble. The food was wonderful and incredibly well presented and served. We will certainly be back.

Having visited The Pheasant pre-covid, every Dec for several years, this was our first visit for 7yrs. Sadly, one of our 'regular' party has since passed away so it was also an opportunity to remember happy times and re-live some of that 'Pheasant' magic.|We weren't disappointed! ||The hotel is still that warm, welcoming, friendly and utterly relaxing haven of hospitality, with the most attentive and obliging staff who all clearly wanted to ensure we were happy & well looked after... none more so than Liam the General Manager! What a lovely man......approachable, friendly, funny, and able to make each guest feel special & important. Nothing was too much trouble. ||The rooms were truly beautiful.... clean, plush, tasteful decor and the most comfy of beds. |Our rooms had pond views and we were lucky enough to witness the most spectacular sunset the evening of our visit. With all our needs catered for in the room we couldn't have been more comfortable. When you revisit somewhere you've loved, particularly after a long absence, there's always the chance it won't live up to your expectations. If anything, it was even better than any of us remembered!||Pre dinner, we had a swim in the pool and then enjoyed a drink and a game of dominoes in the cosy lounge, where the prettiest of Christmas trees and the glowing fire in the log burning stove enhanced the atmosphere even more.|Dinner was exquisite. Excellent menu, delicious food, well presented, and attentive 'service'.||After dinner, we retired to the bar for a nightcap, and again, sat by another log burner and next to another pretty Christmas tree as we relaxed and reminisced.||My son said that the minute you walk through the front door, you immediately relax and leave all the stresses and strains of everyday life, outside. So true!||Staying at The Pheasant is a wonderful experience.... restful & restorative. |You do pay a premium price, but in exchange, you receive some premium pampering and premium luxury. In other words, you get what you pay for! |I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to relax and just enjoy being looked after.|Thankyou to everyone for making our stay so special, particularly Liam, the General Manager.

Wonderful atmosphere, friendly staff, delicious food. Highly recommend for a special meal. We did not stay the night but imagine that would be well worth it. Highly recommend

Just returned after a night away for our anniversary. We stayed in Plum Cottage and had the bed and breakfast package with the evening meal included. We genuinely couldn't fault the place. The food was delicious, the accommodation was private, quiet, and comfortable. The staff were warm, welcoming, attentive, but without being overbearing. We will definitely return again soon.

Just back from a one night stay with my mum and sister. Had a wonderful time and all of the staff were so friendly and helpful.||Would like to give special mention to Johnny who served us at dinner and breakfast and whom could have not been any more accommodating. Excellent customer service all round. Whilst the general manager was not working due to attending a private event at the hotel he still made time to speak with us and check in on the quality of our stay. ||

After coming to this hotel a few years in a row we hadn’t returned since 2017 after a family member we used to visit with passed away. We decided this year to come back and reminisce and it was just as perfect (if not more perfect) than ever. The feeling you have when you enter the pheasant is like no other. The staff go above and beyond every time you see them and make it the most relaxing place to step of the world each time. Liam was the most heartwarming character who had us laughing and feeling like we were the only people in the room, despite how much he was juggling with other guests but everyone had his dedicated attention and care, likewise with all the other staff! It really feels like you’re in a bubble when you visit, all your troubles just disappear and it’s a weekend of pure luxury, coziness, and incredible food and drink. We always come at Christmas and it’s so festive and beautifully decorated but I am sure summer would be just as beautiful sat outside on the terrace. Thank you again to all of the staff for making it a wonderful place to come back to and reminisce on special times as a family.

Lovely hotel in a great location. The staff are wonderful, friendly and professional. The food is delicious with great evening menu with plenty of choice and the breakfast is as good as they come. The rooms are very comfortable, warm and dry well appointed. This is our top Yorkshire hotel if not the UK
