布里索普別墅飯店

We took my Mother for afternoon tea last week to celebrate her 90th Birthday and it was simply outstanding! The quality of the offering was first class and the portions were very generous. The staff on duty were so kind and helpful and it made for a very happy and enjoyable Occassion and all at a very reasonable price!

A little gem of a hotel set in lovely countryside. It rather felt like staying with your wealthy relatives because the staff are so welcoming and friendly. I have never booked anywhere that within half an hour of placing the booking, received a welcome and thank you message from the general manager, who I would add was very present during our stay and was incredibly lovely. The hotel, in places, is a little tired but it’s far outweighed by everything else it has to offer. The room was so quirky with little steps up and down, probably originally a bedroom and private sitting room in years gone by, with a front view over the most incredible old oak tree. The breakfast was lovely quality and the one evening meal we had was also very good. Overall, I would say, the hotel has a soul and character which is so lacking in many other places now. It’s not all bling and sparkle but rather a lovely warm glow on a cold , damp weekend.

Wow! A stunning place to spend our wedding anniversary. We were upgraded to the bridal suite. The house is very cosy and comfortable: log fires, big settees, warm decor and best of all, friendly, welcoming staff. The meals were delicious. Friends recommended it to us and we've passed on that recommendation. We're sure to return.

Had the most wonderful one nights stay here in mid November - this is our second visit to this lovely hotel. We travelled up to spend the Saturday at York Christmas markets and spent the late afternoon and evening at Burythorpe House - 30 minutes drive away, before going to the nearby Castle Howard after breakfast on the Sunday - 15 minutes away. The trip was for my mums 75th birthday and has become a bit of a tradition! We used to stay in York but found Burythorpe House last year and much prefer this ‘home from home’ with beautiful and peaceful surroundings, excellent service, friendly staff and fabulous food! At half the price of a central York hotel at this time of year! The rooms are very well appointed with everything you need and are spotlessly clean, both our evening meal and breakfast was delicious - and the views are stunning! We were lucky enough to be entertained by the ‘resident’ saxophonist who had been booked for both of our visits! Mum was made up that he was there again for this stay! After dinner we spent the evening in-front of a roaring fire with a few drinks. A huge thank you to and recognition of Alison, the hotel manger, who went out of her way to get to know us, had mum in fits of laughter with her tales and really added to our stay. She epitomises this hotel and the personal touch they deliver on, she made mum feels so special and even sent us a glass of champagne to celebrate mums birthday! We cannot wait to return - we thought about bringing dad and my husband but decided to keep this special place as our mum and daughter girlie treat! Fabulous place!

My wife and I stayed at this hotel with family for my brother in laws 70th birthday celebration for 26 guests. We stayed for two nights From moment we arrived till we left, we were welcomed, made to feel at home and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful even helping to decorate table at the hotels expense. The manager, Alison couldn’t have done more to make the function run smoothly and tender for everybody’s requirements. All the staff were so friendly and helpful and very hard working. The food and presentation were impeccable. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Prices were very reasonable both for the rooms and bar prices. Our room was particularly large. I cannot find any faults with our stay at this hotel and would highly recommend for a stay, meal or celebration. Again a big thanks to Alison and all the staff at the hotel for all their hard work and attentiveness. All guests and family both staying or attending this function were all of the same opinion.

Breakfast was wonderful, everything was delicious and felt top quality with locally sourced ingredients. The room was lovely and clean, spacious and quiet with stunning views. It was warm but not overhot, which is a pet hate for me. In the evenings, we especially loved playing board games by the fire in the drawing room while having a drink or two from the bar, I felt transported to simpler times. Upon exploring a little, I could see they had a lovely area outside for summer bbqs and a tennis court which we didn't use. The grounds were well kept and we saw a variety of wildlife including pheasants randomly walking around. The staff were sweet, attentive and so helpful throughout; nothing was too much. Dinner felt special and was delicious. The location is wonderful as we used it as a base to explore York, Malton, Goathland and Whitby that were not too far away. The fact the hotel is deep in the countryside with little light meant my space mad daughter was finally able to see the Milky Way, something she's never been able to see from London, which she absolutely loved! If I had to suggest anything to make it any better, then I would suggest a swimming pool that can be used all year round, just for the entertainment value it would provide (I know my daughter would have loved one!). But to be honest, after a whole day of exploring we were so tired, swimming was the last thing on our minds! Our stay was so wonderfully serene and just what we needed to recharge. We wouldn't think twice about coming back. Thank you so much x
