The location was perfect - a quick walk and 6 minute train ride to York and easy getaway to the Yorkshire Dales. Jonathan and Linda made everything easy, advised on our travels and provided passes to the minster which we would not have otherwise seen. Linda made provisions for a gluten free breakfast - key! It was a lovely stay.

    The room was very spacious and the most comfy bed. The pillows were of high standard. Coffee machine and water are a good bonus.Staff on reception were helpful on arrival and we parked our car overnight which was looked after and safe. Had a swim in the morning. Gorgeous pool, sauna and jacuzzi. Very relaxing place and very close to town centre for shopping and looking at the gorgeous old buildings. Loved every minute and will be back.

    Everything about our break at Sandburn was lovely. All the staff were so polite and always on hand to assist. Very relaxed atmosphere. The decor was very sumptuous and cosy. Had breakfast and meals at Tykes, all excellent. Everywhere was spotless. I upgraded to a outdoor patio area which was perfect, so private to relax outside.

    The Staff, although young had a lovely way about them. The Assistant Manager was a total professional . The Food was lovely and the Garden Room was beautiful and very relaxing. Nothing was too much trouble for the Staff and as it was our Golden Wedding Anniversary the Hotel very kindly left a lovely bottle of Cava and some really great small cakes in our room.

    I loved that when hearing it was my partners and my anniversary they gave us a free glass of champagne each and we also got an upgraded room for an extra £25. The room was spacious and super clean. All the little luxuries in there were of high quality too that made the room even better. The bath was relaxing accompanied with the bath salts and massage bar provided, even the shower was of high level. Beds were so comfy we didn't want to leave the next morning. 110% will be returning again.
