The Talbot Country House Hotel & Inn

We’ve just had a spectacular night away at this stunning hotel! Really cannot fault it. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel so welcome. The staff are all very attentive and really know what they’re doing. Ben the bar manager was wonderful. |We were offered a £10 upgrade to a four poster suite. YES PLEASE! Room 24 was absolutely beautiful. Immaculate, spacious and very comfortable. We had an excellent nights sleep. Food is served all day and you can take your pick of many beautiful areas to sit and eat, drink and relax in. We had lunch and breakfast and both were fresh and delicious. The views from every window are breathtaking. There’s a real attention to detail with lovely extra touches like iced tea available in the lobby and provisions for dogs. We will most definitely stay here again and would highly recommend.

Visiting family, we used this hotel as a base for two nights and were very impressed with the facilities and the staff. The double room was well equipped and very comfortable, with an excellent en-suite. |Breakfast choice was extensive and all hot meals are prepared to order, the bacon was really quite exceptional! |Little touches like bikes to rent, wellies to borrow, free dog towels and poo bags and biscuits, are what really make a difference in the level of thought that has gone into services. |Staff were very pleasant, helpful and yet not imposing. Overall, we would certainly return and recommend to friends.

A friend and I stayed here for six nights and kept talking about how we want to return. Incredibly friendly, helpful, kind staff, wonderful food, and most of all, huge well-appointed rooms. It exceeded our expectations and made our next hotel elsewhere in UK a disappointment. The breakfast was hardy yet flexible enough for mornings we wanted less, and dinner was excellently prepared, hyperlocal and creative. Moulton is a lovely little town with a wide variety of shops and several other restaurants and bistros. The Talbot created the perfect atmosphere we needed for a full exploration of Yorkshire. Oh - and the dog-friendly vibe made it even homier and warm. Good on you, Talbot!

We visited for a birthday trip. This hotel is amazing! The food in amazing and staff couldn’t have been more helpful. We travelled with our dog and the room even had a doggy welcome pack, bed and bowls. The hotel is beautiful and the rooms were so well appointed, even having a Dyson hairdryer! Would highly recommend and we will be returning!

Went tonight as we're not often in Malton and some friends recommended. Lovely building and cosy enough atmosphere with very attentive and pleasant staff but the food was underwhelming and not somewhere we'd return. Mostly dull and reheated, quality well below expectations and my dish was especially disappointing. It was nice on paper but I left it.

Stayed here for my boyfriend’s birthday weekend. ||Great time had by all we were truly spoiled here! ||Amazing staff, hotel is beautiful with so much space, food was lovely ||Thanks to all for making it such a lovely few days away. ||Breakfast was nice with a fantastic selection.

My daughter and I stayed 2 nights at The Talbot Hotel while attending a family wedding. It was recommended by the wedding couple and several of us (approximately 16 guests) found it ideal for our stay, and the celebrations in nearby locations. The rooms were charming, and well stocked. The staff was kind, helpful, and very welcoming. The food, particularly our breakfasts, were wonderful.

Smell of damp hit us as we entered our room. No heating on in the entire suite. Toilet bowl was full of brown fluid…the flush obviously doesn’t work adequately. |The stone bass was cremated… but, having shown the offending fish to the (very pleasant) waitress she came back from the kitchen stating the chef (?) said it would not be sent out if it were overcooked. The evidence was there on the returned plate. Dried out and with a brown skin on the bottom, along with the skin on the top. No refund offered. £23 and I was hungry at the end of the meal. The compensation of a free coffee was rejected by us and we cancelled our dinner booking for the subsequent night. Will certainly not be returning.
