The Briarcroft Wayth Hotels

This 16th-century former farmhouse sits in a sleepy village close to the Humber Estuary. It’s an area rich in agriculture, so it’s no surprise to find local ingredients to the fore on the surprise tasting menu, be they from regional producers, nearby farms or the long-standing owners’ smallholding where they rear animals and grow veg. The chef's personality shines through in the full-flavoured dishes, from nods to his Yorkshire roots to refined takes on his favourite foods, like chicken tacos and lamb kebab. Sumptuous bedrooms mix classic character with modern comforts.
