The Hunters Inn, Near Huby, Harrogate Road

The hotel is lovely with friendly staff. We stayed in the Trentishoe room with a four post bed and en-suite bathroom with a shower cubicle as well as a roll-top, claw-footed bath that overlooks the garden. The hotel is situated in a fantastic location and we would happily visit both the hotel and surrounding area again.

It's a fine place but a strange xenophobia exists. Not manly, in my view, just strange. (I was once challenged to a fight for no reason, which I ignored. Guess I have a high voice. Can't think of another reason. Basically, the pub is a throw back to the 1970s. No problem, I was born in 1955, refuse to be intimidated. However, as I walk in, order, sit by the great fire, I don't expect strange looks comments just out of sight. Pubs must be inclusive. Hence this review. Otherwise, no problem Great setting good value for money.

Friendly pub, serving wide choice of draft beers and larger. Log fire during winter. Guest beers each week so you can try something new, brilliant

Excellent food, great sevice, comfy interior, couldn't fault the place. Reasonably priced, great Sunday lunches.

I have only visited The Hunters a few times, with my last visit happening before Covid. I am happy to see that it has reopened. My friends and I dropped by at 8:30 on a Friday night for some drinks. Despite it being what I consider prime drinking hours, there were only a few customers present. However, since it is not a food establishment and you have to drive there, it is understandable. I enjoyed a Chinook beer from Goose Eye brewery, which was well-maintained. The pub offered at least 6 different ales, so they must be busy at other times to keep their beer selection in such good condition. The service was friendly, the music was good, and there was a pool table for entertainment.
