The Inn South Stainley

10/10 Excellent

"The perfect stay-over on our journey back to Scotland. A very well-appointed hotel - the perfect blend of traditional pub-feel alongside modern décor. The hotel room was located in the beer garden annex - immaculately presented with a very well appointed en-suite and comfortable bed. We had both diner and breakfast in the hotel restaurant and both were excellent. I highly recommend this hotel and hopefully will have a reason to return again."
