Excellent Stay Near Askham Hall

convenient locationhelpful staffearly accesstasty breakfast
My group and I stayed here to attend a wedding at Askham Hall. The location proved convenient, and the staff were helpful. The staff made sure other group members accessed their rooms early to prepare for the event. I found the breakfast tasty and a good value.
The coffee machine in my room was substandard . I think it just needed a good kettle.
