Anniversary weekend

They change my room for me on arrival as i preferred a balcony. The room was lovely. The food in the restaurant was excellent and huge portions and the staff were friendly. All in all a great stay . Fountains Abbey was 10 minutes down the road.

An amazing place to stay

We stayed for 2 nights. The room was very comfortable. We ate twice here and the food was delicious. The staff were amazing, very hospitable, nothing was too much trouble. If we visit this area again, we would have no hesitation in returning. Thank you for a lovely stay.

We had a couple of nights stay at The Chequers Inn. We were treated so well by everyone….came in late the first night and they kept the kitchen open to feed us! Everyone was so helpful and friendly…especially Megan!
Glenn, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location to visit Fountains Abbey, quiet. We really liked having a balcony especially as it was hit. Good choice for breakfast & very reasonable for evening meal. The room was really quite small & the mattress was very soft so didn’t sleep too good.
Sheila, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

You can hear everything in this property. The cleaners started cleaning at 8.30/9am and even though there was a sign outside our room that says to respect other customers who were staying, there was a complete disregard for this. They were being very loud. The room was absolutely boiling constantly even with windows open. Would not recommend, ended up leaving early even if we got offered another room, we feared it would be just as loud and uncomfortable to stay in as it is a small hotel.

room was a bit small but everything else was good
John, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A definite place to visit.

We visited the Chequers Inn some years ago and loved everything about our stay.we always said we would go back again. We have just returned from a 2 night stay, The Chequers Inn looked almost the same but it now has a outside beer garden. The accommodation has been refurbished to a high standard spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The food was as great as we remembered it, in a very comfortable restaurant with very friendly staff. We will definitely be going again in the near future.
Barbara, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

No complaints but be aware checkout time is 10:30 not 11:00 like Expedia says - if you are going only for the fountains abbey parkrun then its not really suitable if you plan to return, shower and leave same morning - but its a nice hotel and Id recomend it, my room had a private outside area which I reckon would be great in summer time :)

10/10 Exceptional

We arrived on a very windy afternoon. It was easy to find. Super helpful staff. Room was beautiful. All facilities excellent. Just rocked up for dinner with an extra guest. Food amazing and super quick service even though it was filling up with guests. Breakfast was delightful with so many 5* choices. Every member of staff greeted you with a warm friendly smile. Nothing was too much trouble. Would definitely recommend The Chequers in Bishop Thornton.
Sylvia, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent value for money. Comfortable stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves here for an overnight stop. The room we stayed in was ground floor and although fairly basic was so comfortable and had everything we required. Tea and coffee tray. Complimentary toiletries. Comfortable beds. Lovely bed linen and towels. Shower over bath was great. Small table and chairs outside each room so we enjoyed the evening sunshine. We were lucky enough to arrive on a Wednesday.. steak night. The steaks we had were amazing. Staff were friendly and efficient. Value for money for room and food was excellent. Car parking no problem. We had a great sleep. What more to say? We'll be back if need a room in this area any time. Thank you...
