Warm,friendly, inviting with mega staff
Pros:

Loved the warm welcome we received when we arrived. The room was lovely and the breakfast was exceptional. There was so much choice for breakfast and love how they incorporated gluten and veggie in. The staff couldn’t do enough for you and I would be back in a heartbeat. The pub food was lovely and it’s in such a beautiful location that’s so peaceful with a few other pubs to dine and drink in.

Cons:

Nothing at all

you should go on four in a bed! Fantastic value for money
Pros:

Really lovely stay, check in was really easy and simple.
The room we had for our family was incredible, really big and the bathroom was huge.
We requested a travel cot and the team was more than helpful setting this in the room for us.
Plenty of tea and coffee.
The breakfast again was really great and tasty and would do anything for the kids.
Really lovely stay and loved our little break away.

Cons:

nothing

Wonderful staff, clean and accessible hotel, fabulous food.
Pros:

This was my second stay at The Buck. It's a lovely hotel in the centre of Reeth. I stayed in a family room with my mother and my spaniel. The room was exceptionally clean and had recently been refurbished.
The staff were exceptional with my dog, both in the bar during dinner and also the breakfast team. The chef remembered us from a previous visit and came out to say hello to us and my dog - they treated him to a freshly cooked sausage and were so very welcoming. The food at dinner and breakfast was delicious, we will be back.

Cons:

Nothing could've been better and I feel confident that had I asked for anything to be amended, it would have been. They are a wonderful team at The Buck.

Great place for a weekend away to explore the Dales
Pros:

The room was great, large with a really comfortable bed. The bar was cosy, breakfast was good. Friendly staff.

Cons:

Only thing we would change - the room was big but only one radiator worked so it was a bit cold.
