The Dales are beautiful, Dent is a lovely town, the Inn is characterful and staffed by a great set o
Pros:

Staff were cheery and helpful. The facilities are rudimentary as expected, it is an old characterful building.
The Full Rnglish breakfast was superb, and that is an understatement.

Cons:

Nothing, other than not having a few more nights booked!

Cosy Countryside Inn
Pros:

The room was very cosy with pretty curtains, and the beds very comfortable. The inn has a lot of charm and character, and the vegan breakfast was delicious. And the people were kind and helpful, being friendly and providing anything I needed to help me rest after my long day's walk. The area is very beautiful in the spring.

Cons:

The shower was very slightly mouldy, and the floorboards were creaky.
