Best B&B in England

We are thrilled and honoured to be named as Guest Accommodation of the Year for England 2018-19 at this year’s prestigious AA B&B Awards held at The Landmark Hotel, London on Monday 30 April. 

The annual event recognises the diversity and individuality behind some of the nation’s most remarkable B&Bs and celebrates the people that devote their lives to running them.  With five categories, ranging from the friendliest to the most unique, the winning establishments have been chosen due their impeccable service and superb offering.

The Old Town Hall won the award following a visit by one of the AA’s inspectors as a mystery guest, who then checked for everything from the accommodation and food to the levels of hospitality.

Introducing The Old Town Hall, Simon Numphud, Managing Director at AA Hotel & Hospitality Services said

“This award winner is located in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales in the picture postcard Wensleydale countryside. Guests can expect a warm & genuine hospitality with the experience further enhanced with the home baking & award winning breakfast with as much of the produce sourced locally as is possible.

Open fires add to the warmth, charm & character of the property but it is the luxury of each individually designed bedroom that shows no stone has been left unturned when it comes to striving to offer the best possible guest experience. Sumptuous beds with high stitch count bedlinen, well stocked hospitality trays & luxury Temple Spa toiletries along with oversized super-soft absorbent towels.”

When we started two and a half years ago we never imagined we would be recognised by such a highly regarded organisation for doing something we enjoy.

We would like to thank all our guests for their fantastic reviews which went a long way in helping us achieve this fantastic award.
