The Wainstones - Hambleton

This place is great for a lunch that exceeds expectation. The beef dupiaz was melt in the mouth. The monkfish was also delicious as was the belly pork. A good choice of dishes and some daily specials. Real ale is from a brewery just up the road. Reasonably priced and good portions but even better when they have an offer on.

Room, spotless bathroom, even cleaner, everything spotless Breakfast is the best we had in two weeks of touring Scotland selection an option we had not ever seen before. Absolutely brilliant. Staff, all of them, absolutely charming, and most helpful As a former mystery shopper of hotels, I would say the hotel side, and the breakfasts experience was exceptional

Both positive and negative sides to our stay here, but overal dissapointing. We were two couples, where one pair had a nice enough room, while the other had a room with lots of mold in the bathroom. Except for the mold problem, the rooms were clean. We ate dinner and breakfast at the hotel. The food was good and the servers were attentive and helpful. There was, however, the very strong smell of mold for the two of us who sat next to the wall This detracted from the experience. We also arranged for packaged lunches as we were walking coast-to-coast. The lunch offered was the worst that we had on the entire trip. We tasted it, then decided to eat later. The man who drove us to and from the hotel was friendly and pleasant. The woman who worked the front desk was quite the opposite--surly almost to the point of being rude. This made a large negative impact on our experience as a whole.

We held a 70 th birthday on Sunday here and had a lovely family lunch and afternoon .Everyone was catered for without any fuss . The food was wonderful everyone was over the moon with the food no-one had any thing negative to say about anything. The whole experience from booking the room .right through was so easy David is wonderful and all the staff were a delight . Will definitely come back . Definitely recommend it to others . Thank you.

Superb! Came for a surprise family meal to celebrate our silver wedding, 25years earlier we had celebrated our wedding here and lots of functions in between. First class service and the standard of food is first class.
