This attractive restaurant inside Aldwark Manor boasts a range of eye-catching features; your interest may be captured by the boldly coloured fabrics decorating the room, the huge windows affording views over the lawns or, if you’re looking closely, the mirror with camera views into the kitchen. What’s more, one of the well-stocked bookcases even conceals a secret door into a snug bar that’s perfect for a digestif. The cooking itself consists of modernised classics on a choice of tasting menus, Romeo or Julieta – plus vegetarian versions Pol and Roger.

There is a simple, homely feel to this pub overlooking the ruins of Byland Abbey, courtesy of its flagstone floor, colourful throws and blazing fires in the winter. The comforting British cooking matches the seasons well, while providing crowd-pleasing menu mainstays like their signature 'Byland Burger'. The owners, who also run The Black Swan in nearby Oldstead, provide much of the superb produce from their own farm. Traditional bedrooms sit upstairs and, in the summer, the garden terrace makes a great spot for a pint.
