Average accommodation
Accommodation was average but the cleanliness let it down. The bedding was clean and fresh but we had old tea spashes on the unit and also someone's old toilet usage was still stick to the pan. "Wasn't the nicest thing to have to clean when I've paid to stay at a hotel" overall would I stay again. Yes I probably would as it may have been a one off... Some of the furniture and decor had seen better days too

Clean comfortable room, friendly staff, good price for the area. Food looked good, but I ate elsewhere.
On a main road with noisy lorries passing at all hours.

Lovely pub with welcoming hosts
A lovely, welcoming pub which is ideally situated for the village of Ingleton and local places of interest. Our room was cosy, super clean and the power shower was amazing! All the staff were extremely friendly and attentive and made us feel very welcome. The only drawback for us was the busy road that the pub is situated on. With the window open, the noise of the traffic is pretty relentless. There was a large fan in our room though which we took full advantage of!

Stayed here on an overnight exploring Yorkshire Dales. On arrival announced ourselves as no-one at bar we were greeted with "we are here...just wait". Taken to room up a very tight staircase, advised we could use the fridge outside the room & then left to it without a key for the room. Room lovely & bed comfy, fan provided great as it was warm. I love traffic noise but for anyone who doesn't...this place is on a MAJOR main road with trucks passing at all hours. We put water we had bought in the fridge & discovered the following morning it had been stolen! Advised the male host on departure & he didn't seem bothered. Nice place but customer service & security lacking

Cosy, clean pub rooms.
Clean, comfortable rooms but quite cosy. The pub is on the busy A65, so it can be quite noisy, even at the back.
Very little choice for vegetarians/vegans, especially if you don't like fake meat. Although the kitchen did agree to do the mushroom salad which is normally only on the lunchtime menu for dinner, which was nice.
Some fruit at breakfast would have been nice, but there was tasty bread.

Wonderful break
This is the second time we've stayed at the Mason Freehouse, it was lovely the first time we stayed, which made us keen to return. Although it is now under new management, it's clear that the lovely, friendly, warm welcoming atmosphere is something the staff are keen to retain. We're looking forward to coming back and staying again, as the plans for new menus sound fantastic.
Room sizes and facilities are very adequate for a short stay. The location is very central for the surrounding walks, caves, lakes and other activities.
Thank you for a lovely stay.

Friendly staff
Good service and friendly staff, decent food as well. Very close to the waterfalls walk which is worthwhile doing. Road is quite noisy if you’re a light sleeper but I didn’t have an issue.

Very nice
Lovely room at the Mason's Arms, very clean, it was on the small side but this didn't bother us at all. Nice big shower with free use of shampoo/conditioner/shower gel. They were busy when we arrived so had to wait to be served and shown our room but we arrived at the busiest time for the restaurant. We also ate there and the food was delicious, we would stay again. The room was warm so had to open a window, we could hear the traffic from the busy road outside but it was not a major problem. Overall a really nice stay :-)
