We stayed as attending a Wedding at Danby Castle. Staff couldn’t have been more helpful, rooms were clean and comfortable. We had a Double with en-suite including full bath. Other family had a twin with full ensuite bathroom. We had an evening meal and breakfast which was excellent value and so huge we couldn’t eat it all. Staff helped us get return lift to venue. Ubers don’t cover the area and taxis are extortionate prices. Would recommend if looking for really value in a lovely location

Booked a stay for 4 couples to attend a family wedding at Danby Hall. The staff here are great; very friendly and welcoming. The same can be said for the locals. We had food and drinks when we arrived and everything was spot on! The food was homemade and piping hot. We stayed in Room 4, which was a large room and was very comfortable. There was a large dressing table which was a bonus and the double bed was soooo comfortable! The bathroom had a bath and shower and was a decent size. Breakfast was amazing, lots of choice! Very tasty and filling! Nothing to fault, always served with a smile. Special shout out to Ryan who worked behind the bar and offered to collect all 8 of us from the wedding venue at midnight. Absolute gem. Overall great stay, defo be back. Thank you.

2 night stay with breakfast was perfect, rooms nice, very clean, beds comfortable, evening meal and breakfast was lovely, nothing to fault with this place, staff very accommodating, stayed here for a wedding at Danby Castle, lovely lad who worked on the bar was very kind and picked us up and brought us back after the wedding to save us paying a fortune for a taxi.

Value for money of food, but not much space so advise booking a table. Food was all homemade and tasty. Good value on puds. Nice selection of food as well as veggie option.

So we were staying at the cottage across the road and popped in here for a swift drink on a couple of nights. Staff were lovely and engaged us in conversation which was a pleasure knowing how the south are about ignorance. We are from Shropshire and found all those people we spoke to in the pub as if we were long lost relatives. We didn't eat but the food looked lovely and plentiful. Great choice of beers and great outside space.

Firstly this review is about the BnB aspect of our stay here not the pub/Bar food. The heating in the rooms had been turned off,it was May yes but both us and the couple we visited with were both told to turn the radiator valve one way or the other, they were centrally turned off so rooms freezing on the two night stay. Also no complimentary shower gel,shampoo or any form of any bathroom essentials. I mean come on it's just good manners to show a guest you value them for choosing to stay. Breakfast no menu so you can at least see what is on offer, and no vegetarian option or ask of any dietary needs. Had to ask if any fresh orange juice and we clearly saw the staff returning from outside with some, I can only assume from the co op over the road. It should be on display what is on offer to eat, not just having to ask if it's here or not, which was a real let down and annoying. It's like we were having to ask and guess if we can have it or not. Lastly as a BnB we feel it was over priced as we paid as two couples £306 each for two nights that was with breakfasts as feel it's over priced. Budget BnB at best. Like I said bar and pub food and that aspect of the place is good but the BnB side needs a shake up on price and personal touch.

We stayed overnight, having an early start at Sandsend the next morning. It seemed a convenient place. The rooms were clean and pleasant, with views over the spectacular scenery of the North York Moors. We were served a very generous breakfast in the morning. The full English is guaranteed to set you up for whatever strenous walking you may have planned, at least until lunchtime. The owner and his wife are very friendly and welcoming. For those looking for a good evening meal, the Eskdale, just half a mile down the road, has a great menu and a really nice dining room. One of the less pleasant aspects of our stay was that the Friday we were there, it was music night at the pub. The singer was good: I know, because I could hear every note in my room. We had planned for an early night, but until it ended at 11pm, that was out of the question. Our friend, staying down the corridor, was also kept awake, and was then roused at 5am by a toddler shouting in the next room. The pub is a Victorian inn, with nicely converted upstairs rooms, but they did not include much soundproofing in their redesign plans. That is unfortunate. The prices for the rooms were not cheap either. I recommend that anyone planning to stay should enquire in advance whether their time includes any events in the pub, if they have any thoughts of getting to sleep before eleven pm. Also, check the prices against those advertised online, and make sure you don't get overcharged (our first quote was a lot higher, reduced on request), and check that breakfast is included in the price if you are paying above the usual rate.

9 of us had a meal here whilst staying in the village. 5 of us had various Parmos, they were delicious, huge (none of us finished) and really good value. All the other meals (steak, fish and chips, pie, something vegetarian) were also rated as delicious. Definitely well worth a visit.

We are staying at a friend's cottage in the village and thought we'd try the local for food and drinks. The place is lovely and clean and got a very nice welcome as we walked in. Had Timothy Taylor landlord on. So hubby was very happy and said its a very good pint. We ordered our food. The place was busy and we had to wait but I believe if it comes out in 10 mins it can't be good. Well the wait was worth it. The portion size was extremely good. And you definitely don't leave hungry. Food was very well presented and was delicious. If you are in the area or lucky enough to live in the village, it's well worth a visit. We'll be back.

We stayed in a beautiful cottage down the road from this pub. Called in for drinks 1st night and booked table for meal for 2nd night. The meal was absolutely fantastic, everything is freshly cooked, a very busy pub and I can see why. The menu offers food for all tastes and it’s really reasonably priced considering the standard of the food. If you visit and want a meal make sure you pre book because otherwise you may be disappointed it is that popular. We did eat there again before we left because we wanted to try other meals on the menu. The meals are plenty big enough and very filling. Both times we couldn’t manage even a dessert we were so full. Very dog friendly also

We gazed in awe at those fellow diners who ordered Parmo's for two, which came on a wooden platter. We felt Covid safe and enjoyed our first dining in experience for a long time. There is also a nice garden out the back overlooking chickens, ponies and a nice view of the moors. Note, at the time of visit they were not currently open for food every night. Check and book.

Stayed at the pub for two nights whilst visiting family in the village, really nice welcoming, friendly locals pub that also welcomes people from outside of the area. There is plenty of drink choices, definitely something for everyone and the food was top class ! Jack is a very talented chef and won't send out food he isn't happy with, he puts a lot of effort into the flavours and also presentation of the food and it definitely shows. We stayed in room 3 which had everything you needed from a comfortable bed, TV, dressing table, tea and coffee making facilities, cupboard space for clothes and complimentary toiletries in the bathroom. Really impressed with the breakfast and nothing was too much trouble for the staff, delicious fryup on our last morning and even a doggy bag to take for our journey home as we were too full to finish breakfast. Thank you for a lovely stay, we can't wait to come back. High recommend.

You can never have enough gravy.The garlic mushroom starter was lovely and the sticky toffee pudding was scrummy.As we were staying nearby and had spotted some of the other dishes coming out we returned last night and tried the chicken dish. Flattened chicken breasts, coated with breadcrumbs and covered in bechemel and cheese sauce. Served with salad and triple cooked chips. It was amazing.Can’t wait to try another dish.If you are around Castleton then it is so worth a visit.Ruth and Keith Newey

We visited the Downe Arms to eat on a Saturday evening, having pre-booked a table, as it was close by our accommodation. The staff were very friendly and were attentive to make sure that everything was OK, which it was. Menu choices are what one would expect from a classic British Pub menu, but unlike many of the pub "chains", well executed and we found the cheese board to be generous with respect to the lovely cheeses, but also the amount of crackers (something that, weirdly, I have found to be in short supply in other places). We hope to return to Castleton at some point, and the Downe Arms will definitely be an incentive to return. Good pub food.

Had a lovely meal this eveing. Competitively priced and delicious. As ever, since the new management have taken over, a really friendly welcome and excellent service from all staff. Great to see this pub is now going from strength to strength.

I stayed here for 2 nights with family and had a fantastic time. The bedrooms were spotlessly clean with nice comfy beds, lovely bedding and fluffy towels. Nice size en-suites, all with baths & showers. My bedroom had an amazing view over the back, I could see for miles over the fields.

6 of us booked in for Sunday dinner. Roast beef was lovely, served with mash and roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding and veg. Steak and ale pie, served with chips and veg was awesome. Roast chicken with sausage meat stuffing also received great reviews. Puddings delicious. This is a lovely pub with a great atmosphere and welcoming staff. Highly recommend and will return if in the area.

We visited for a late Sunday lunch & from the moment we entered the Downe Arms we were made to feel welcome. We were given a choice of areas to eat & chose the small dining room with a lovely table by the log burner. The menu choice was extremely good but after a brisk coastal walk on a damp November day...we were here for a traditional Sunday roast. The meal was very good & tasty, vegetables perfectly cooked & the roast beef flavoursome....I would have liked the choice of having my beef on the rare side but that is purely a personal choice. We look forward to visiting again as the whole menu was imaginative & tempting plus the warm & friendly welcome made us want to return.

Firstly, the welcome you get is an amazing experience in itself. We are a couple who were staying in castleton for a long weekend with our dog !!

Welcoming and friendly pub in the centre of Castleton. Unfortunately didn't serve food whilst we stayed in the village but that was all due to change on the day we left. Lovely and warm inside thanks to the log burner being regularly topped up and only let down by the limited choice of real ales.

Had the opportunity of visiting the Downe in Castelton over the last couple of weekends. A fantastic place to stay; lovely rooms, cracking beer and excellent staff, led by Julie & Neil. They have really made a difference and brought the place to life - a full pub, good quiz and brilliant live band - a real pleasure to spend time there.

This was better than pub food, with friendly service and better than the Fox and hounds where we stayed. A nice atmosphere and well worth a visit.

Came here with my partner and our neighbour for a lunchtime treat and what a treat it was. Full menu available on a lunchtime and specials too. I chose the duck which was lovely and presented beautifully, my partner had steak which he really enjoyed and our neighbour also chose from the special board and had sea bass which he thoroughly enjoyed. We were so full be didn’t have room for dessert but I will leave room on my next visit. Fantastic host and an amazing building. Can’t comment on toilet facilities as didn’t use them but I’m sure they were immaculate as everywhere else was. Would we return? For sure :-)

My boyfriend and I cannot recommend the Downe Arms Inn highly enough. The staff are unanimously incredibly friendly and the view from the garden is postcard perfect (a tableau of sheep, chickens, cows, swallows and a cat). Not to mention the food...We both had the pan fried chicken on our final evening in Castleton and it was absolutely stunning. And if you like dogs, Archie, the resident dog is so cute.

My girlfriend, our neighbour and myself ate here today and we were all very impressed. The food, service and surroundings were all A1 and could not be faulted - and what a view from the beer garden at he back!!! I had rump steak, this missus had duck and our friend went for the sea bass, all three dishes were perfectly presented and tasted beautiful. I believe that the owners have not long taken over, but I can say that we definitely will be back in the not too distant future. Must mention that they are dog friendly too, and our two needy pooches were made to feel welcome. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Dined here yesterday evening. What a great change in such a short time. We are close...so we will be back. Apart from a logistics problem...what was on the menu didn't tally with what was served...we could not fault the place AND what we DID get was superb. Quality ingredients and excellent execution from cooking to presentation makes The Downe Arms a great venue...unequivocal recommendation.

Not sure what more you could ask for when you attend a pub if your foods delicious, pints great & the views overlooking the moors.

The warm welcome our walking group received from the new landlady was like a breath of fresh air compared to the last time. This excellent pub is now back on our list. Lovely pint of Black Sheep and service with a smile. Excellent views over Danby Dale from the beer garden.

Just had another enjoyable meal at The Downe Arms. Warm welcome with friendly and efficient service. Really enjoyed my 'Surf and Turf' and kids accommodated with small versions of Sunday roast which they both enjoyed.

Please ignore any bad reviews for this place, they refer to the previous management before January 2018. The new management at this pub really have turned the place around. Had a lovely Sunday lunch today - highly recommended, give it a try.

What a find! This has been the loveliest meal we have had this year. The food is beautiful, my husband had haddock and loved it. I had rib of beef and it was just delightful some of the best food I have had. The landlord was super lovely and nothing was too much trouble. The staff were lovely and attentive but not over bearing. The menu gives lots of choice and there is a brilliant gin menu. They are dog friendly too so we all had a wonderful time- thank you. We have booked up for Sunday lunch when we are next on holiday over here. I couldn’t recommend this place enough
