The Old Rectory, Sutton-on-Derwent (7 miles from York) is an outstanding example of a British Country House hotel. The location is in a small scenic village, well placed for regional attractions like Castle Howard - the Brideshead Revisited historic location. The Old Rectory is the ideal size for a country hotel (7 bedrooms) and has a substantial garden. The owners... more

I stayed for three nights in a beautifully renovated room overlooking the front lawn. The new owners were told that this room was stayed in by Neville Shute the author when the building was still a rectory and it was where he started his writing career. Whether this is true or not will require some research, but I could well... more

Delightful hotel that has recently changed hands and been renovated. Quiet, near a great pub for food (book well beforehand as it gets busy). Near the Air museum and only a few miles from York. Highly recomended. more

Having used this Hotel (well, a B & B at the mo) for a number of years, I was impressed/amazed at the transformation underway. New owners are about half way through a restoration of this Georgion mansion to its former glory, with a big twist of modern chic! Nothing like it for miles around. I want a bathroom like that! more

For many years we have treated this as our holiday hotel. The rooms are large, clean and well furnished. The food is excellent. Friends who we have recommended are more than pleased with our choice. Close to the Air Museum and York Park and ride. Always made most welcome. more

We stayed for one night on our way back from the Lakes. The room was dirty and dark. The bathroom was horrible. I wouldn't go in there without leaving the door open. We would have gone elsewhere but we arrived too late to be able to find anywhere else that night. When we woke up in the morning we were... more
