Step back in time to the original "Woolpack," back in the good old days of Emmerdale Farm and there it is, the Falcon Inn in Arncliffe. Once the word got out, people flocked for miles to try and get a glimpse of the actors during filming. The tiny, peaceful village got so packed that the residents couldn't get in and out of the place and protests began. Eventually filming moved to Esholt, on the outskirts of Bradford and over the years, Arncliffe returned to a sleepy little village. There is still a photo next to the bar of Amos Brierley and Henry Wilkes, as well as a more recent photo of the modern James Herriot and his wife, from the new series of All Creatures Great and Small. The pub is packed with items of interest; better than many museums I have visited. It's quirkiness is a joy to behold and you could spend a long time trying to take everything in. You can park outside, next to the green. The only sound is that of the birds and the occasional farm animal. There is a compact but enticing menu and we had a lovely plate of sandwiches and fries for two. I even enjoyed the air conditioning toilets, though it was a bit of a limbo to get into the cubicle. Having passed by a number of times, I'm pleased that we made the effort to go in at last. If you want total tranquility, you can also stay there, as they have a few rooms available. Go take a look. You'll be surprised. We were.

Lovely café with good choice of food and friendly service. Gluten free options (bread) available. I had a very nice Wensleydale and apple sandwich

Exceptionally good food and great beer. The service is relaxed and friendly and, overall, it's a hidden gem of a pub! Thoroughly recommended 👌

Stayed in the Newby room last night; a beautiful stay. Would highly recommend as the location is idyllic and room done to a very high standard including best shower I think I have ever had. Breakfast this morning was superb. This venue offers everything I could want in a romantic stay. Fantastic bar, roaring fire, wonderful food, excellent room, great breakfast. I loved the atmosphere in the bar as there were a few Christmas parties on and dinner was fantastic; very high quality and interesting menu (chicken wellington and perfectly cooked ribeye were highlights). Special mention to the lady who checked us in/out (Atilla?) and the lady serving us for dinner last evening (apologies I don't know her name). All the staff are so friendly. Thanks for a wonderful stay which gave us an opportunity to relax and decompress before Christmas. We will be back as soon as we can.

Exceptional food! Five cask ales. Enthusiastic and attentive (young) staff. The type of pub that makes you want to move near to it. Oh, and the BEST chips you will ever taste, wonderfully complemented by the gravy and the outstanding steak and ale pie,
