Wonderful 2 night stay at this beautiful hotel. We had our wedding reception here in 2018 and or recent stay in 2024 was just as warm and pleasant. Amazing and friendy staff and atmosphere, clean and well equipped rooms and food is always exceptional. If youre hiking or passing through, this little gem of a hotel is a joy to stay at.

Superb food. Great staff.
If you sleep with the window open you have to get used to the road noise.
Apart from that, perfect!

A lovely cosy room. It was surprisingly quiet given its location close to the road. The food in the restaurant was excellent (and I am known to be fairly fussy about my food) with food veggie options. Staff were pleasant and helpful. We stayed here as part on cycling the coast to coast from Morecambe and it provided an excellent stopping point

Nice place
Had to ring mobile number to get in & you need one if your walking into town in the dark as there are no street lights. Room was large but really cold when we arrived. Heated up after an hour or so when the radiator was switched on. Think they were expecting single occupancy because there was only 1 cup with kettle 1 packet of biscuits & 1 set of towels. Shower was good, bed was comfortable, pillows were too big had to use a cushion. Breakfast was good, staff friendly. Overall enjoyable stay.

Really friendly staff and excellent food on site. Location is relatively central to areas of interest including Ingelton Falls Waterfall Walk which is not 15 minutes drive from its location.

Fantastic staff lovely food and nice surroundings with amazing views. Perfect place to stay for the Settle to Carlisle train. Rooms could possibly be a little warmer particularly the bathroom but we did stay at a particularly cold time

Immaculately kept pub wioth good quality food.
Immaculate from top to bottom, the Craven arms was well presented and well organised. Food is equally well thought through and produced using top quality ingredients. Wish we'd stayed during the week though as the menu looked more inventive than the (very tasty) Sunday roast on offer when we stayed. We were welcomed by the staff along with our bikes and panniers as were walkers who were also staying after tackling Sca Fell. Breakfast was definitely a highlight.

Lovely base for walking in the Dales.
We were made to feel at home in this comfortable B&B. Delicious food and excellent real ale from local brewery. Pleasant hosts with plenty of good old Yorkshire hospitality. The room was in the converted barn at the back, so away from the busy road - only slight problem - water in the shower went off mid-shower one morning - perhaps because the room is at the end of the line for hot water, and everyone was using it at the same time? Only happened once in our three day visit. Would definitely recommend this place and hope to come again one day.

Small pleasant Pub Hotel
Nice small pub hotel with friendly staff and excellent food both evening and breakfast.
Only complaint we stayed in room 1 this room is cold in the middle of the night the floor boards above creek and can keep you awake and the bathroom floor is freezing cold no matter what time of day.
My wife was given an extra throw when she asked.
Even taking this into consideration we would stay here again but not in room 1

We loved our stay at the Craven Arms. We stayed for 4 nights, and had 2 evening meals there. The proprietors were warmly welcoming and informal, and we felt very settled and relaxed there. Our room was clean and comfortable, and the food very good.
