Great location not too far from the beautiful North Yorkshire countryside, and very close to Ilkley.
Pros:

Great cat parking. Out of town location is nice, but conversely is less convenient for local amenities.

Cons:

Nothing in particular. It served a purpose and was exactly what I required. The main building and grounds are exceptional. However the lower grade rooms (judging by the one I was in and those nearby) are well worn and lacking a TLC. They are still very serviceable though, and this didn't detract very much from the score I have given, because the price was reflective, and fair.

Had a good weekend. Staff very friendly.
Pros:

Near to town centre and railway.

Cons:

Problem with half board. Coach parties take presidency over private bookings. Had to be quite forceful in getting a table in the restaurant. Did not want to eat meal in the bar..
