The Providence Inn in Ryedale

First time visiting, the staff were very welcoming and friendly. I had the Sunday lunch which was delicious and my husband had a very generous portion of chilli nachos that he said were spot on, we were greedy and shared an excellent sticky toffee pudding with custard. The black sheep beer went down a treat too, we'll definitely be back.

The food was tasteless, I had Jerked chicken which was so bland, salt and pepper would have given a bigger kick. Whilst I appreciate that they must cater for every one with no heat in the dish it should not be called Jerked chicken. My daughter in law had the Chilli Nachos yet again no spice as she described it as just like minced beef. When we told the waitress who asked if everything was OK we simply got a disinterested "oh sorry about that" not interested at all. The bar man served my daughter in law then served a local his beer telling my wife who he had seen go to the bar with my daughter in law "ill serve you next" Very poor service. The pub is poorly lit which does not create an ambience it merely looks dingy. Portion sizes are reasonable and not overly expensive, that said when the side salad is the tastiest thing on your plate it's not that good value.

Excellent visit with great food and atmosphere. Fantastic dog friendly pub serving good value drinks and really tasty food (we had the lamb burger with feta and caramelised onion from the Specials board, the halloumi fajitas and the chicken fajitas). Especially loved the singer Connor Lawlor, who was brill and took my request to do a excellent cover of Tom Perry’s Free Fallin’ - a wonderful night out!

Stopped here to use facilities and have a meal. We had not booked, but staff friendly and accommodating. Menu was lovely, delicious food. Well worth the stop.

We have camped here on many occasions and also tend to have a few meals here during our stay. We ate here this evening, I had the beef and ale pie and my partner had the lamb shank. Both were cooked to perfection, with an excellent selection of fresh vegetables and potatoes. The meal was one of the best we have eaten in a very long time. All tasted like farm to table food. Portions were generous and the pie was packed with beef and encased in absolutely gorgeous shortcrust pastry...well done chef 👍

A lovely welcoming pub with a nice easy going atmosphere. We stopped by on our way back from a country event near Scarborough. Hungry & tired we were fed & watered within an hour because the service is excellent. The steak pie was one of the best I have ever had & my husbands fish & chips not only looked amazing but tasted fantastic too.

We were there for 12 noon opening, arriving with some other customers. We asked if they were doing food and we were informed they were and welcomed into the establishment. A great selection of real ales, ciders, lagers and soft drink. We ordered steak and ale pie. Probably the finest quality home made pie we have eaten. Great chips and mushy peas too. You wont be disappointed by the portion either, it’s huge. Great little pub with a lovely atmosphere and welcoming attentive staff.

Lovely experience with the bar staff so kind and I didn’t even need to ask for another drink and the beer was on point no wonder why I was rough on Sundays

We stayed here with our caravan for a little two day trip. It is the first time we have ever stayed on a pub site before we it look nice so though we would give it a go. It’s a nice little site with electric hook up, a good size play park, covered outdoor seating area, pot washing area and toilet block. The food is excellent and MASSIVE portions, we even asked for something off the menu and it was no problem for them. The chef was lovely and so were the bar staff.

Sunday dinner at providence today, exactly waht it said on menu, best dinner I've had in a long time, brilliant bar staff, can't fault it. Will be back for sure.

Called in because it said it was dog friendly and it certainly was gave us a warm welcome we had dinner and a few drinks the food was amazing and well priced warm open fire which was nice on a rainy day definitely will be going back the next time we are in the area

I have driven and ridden past here a good few times and it has always looked well presented an inviting! So we made the effort to visit for some food and a few drinks, it has not disappointed, the place felt warm and welcoming from the off, the staff were very welcoming on arrival the service was excellent and so was the food and drink, we will be definitely be visiting again. Thank you

Came up for the weekend and poped in for lunch which was delicious, lovely presented and freshly made, All the staff were friendly egar to please. So we decided to go back with family the day after for Sunday lunch. Again the food is lovely as we're the staff. I had a nosy about the camp site which was clean and to a very high standard. I will be recommending the site to my camping friends and family. Even had a chat with the landlady who was such a lovely lady , very informative and Easy to talk. I definitely recommend A**

Wonderful country inn with outstanding food warm friendly atmosphere and dog friendly fantastic camp site with well thought out facilities Would certainly recommend a visit

We visited the pub for a meal last Tuesday evening, after a great day in Scarborough. We had a decent meal and were even talking about visiting the campsite sometime. Not a chance! Following our meal I accompanied our daughter to the toilet and waited outside the cubicle while she was inside. The other cubicle was occupied and after flushing the occupant opened the door and left without washing her hands...None other than the waitress who had delivered our meal...need I say more?

A last minute booking with our Motorhome so we went non electric. Parked on a big field next to stream. Had a few drinks in the pub and a Sunday lunch- which was delicious and great value. Lovely outdoor seating area. Highly recommended

We love this place! We stayed for 3 nights during a month long tour of the North. Our generous pitch was right behind the pub and close to the showers that were always hot. The staff at the pub could not have been more friendly...

Had a wonderful meal with my wife, the staff were friendly and attentive. Couldn't do enough to make sure we had a good time. Food was all locally sourced and you could taste the difference. Highly recommended and we will visit again soon.

We were recommended this place by a local holiday home owner.We booked a table after reading the menu on their website We arrived to be told that a couple of meals were not available. We ordered the hunters chicken. It was patently obvious that the hunter had hunted in Iceland, Farm Foods or another discount freezer shop. Rubbery Chicken cheese and bacon straight from freezer to microwave and then to the table.My wife after much deliberating ordered the burger. Again an Iceland etc. burger and chips. We left most of both meals and then left the pub, never to return.Avoid like the plague.

Just had two nights here on an EHU pitch. Pitch was massive. There was one shower which was lovely and hot,very roomy. Two toilets and pot washing facilities all very clean.Pub was lovely, staff were great, very friendly. Food was gorgeous had the Hunters Chicken and Haddock and chips from the smaller menu (due to covid) both were beautiful, home cooked meals. There is a bit of noise from the pub up until 11 but it didnt bother us.Very informal campsite, would definately return and recommend to friends

Vicky and Neil will do everything they can to look after their guests - nothing is impossible. A great welcome from start to finish.

We stayed in Wonky Cottage, definitely wonky but warm, comfortable and clean. Hot tub was a fab addition, private yard perfect if you have brought your four legged friend. TV could do with a retune , lots of channels but no BBC. Good WiFi included. Overall, a great little find for a short break. The food in the pub was amazing, 2 massive sirloins with all the trimmings and a bottle of nice wine 13 % Malbec , £25. Vicky and Neil , the landlords were very helpful and hospitable. Would we stay her again ? It’s a yes from us.

We stayed 2 nights in the cottage attached to the pub, it was spacious and comfortable and a lovely outdoor space for dogs to roam and a hot tub for us, this was really more than we expected and had a great stay.The food was great british pub food, really enjoyed both meals, no room for a pudding, although my husband did and it was delicious.The pub is extremely well run and we like the clear sign, if your bum is on a seat you can take off your mask. I felt particulally safe, as I am paranoid in this pandemic about eating out. Vicky, Neil, Will and all the staff were brilliant and we would definetely go back for another visit.ThankyouRob and Jackie

Stayed here over night on the campsite, which was great. Had everything that we needed, clean and tidy. We ate in the pub for a late lunch on Saturday, food was fresh, tasty and well presented. We also choose to stay for Sunday lunch which again was lovely. Staff very present and helpful. All current COVID m-19 rules in place making us feel very safe. Thank you and we will be back.

We stopped here for a long weekend, the campsite was excellent with good sized pitches and adequate facilities. The landlady and landlord are very friendly and welcoming, the food in the pub was excellent both in terms of quality and value, we will definitely be coming back

Booked a caravan site for two nights so decided to book a meal in the pub. No masks no social distancing no customer service and food was poor. Very disappointed.

A very very nice welcome from the staff and food was really really good we would highly recommend and can't wait to come back x

This is a great country pub. It's great value, the food's amazing and they offer "no holds barred" camping both with and without electric right outside. Just a few points that were a bit of a downer, and for others to note;Wine glasses all seemed to be borderline mucky. My wife had to wipe someones lipstick from hers ...and later that evening the barman give me a fresh glass but then took it back because (in his words) it was "dicey".If camping, watch out for dog poo. Others don't always clean up dog mess and if you encounter some (like I did) you'll struggle to get away from the smell all night! Obviously, not always something the landlord can control.Again, if camping on the electric pitches directly at the back of the pub you might hear some noise in the beer garden - enough to wake a child at times. The local young farmers turned up during our stay, on what we thought would be a quiet Sunday night, and they didn't leave the beer garden until nearly 11pm.

A lovely 5 night stay on the bank holiday. There is only one shower for the whole site so need to be creative with when you want to use - but it is a very good shower - hot and warm heater in the room. Would have prefered a bit more cleaning of the toilets and shower, but I am a bit obsessive with dirt. Unisex toilets would be good to make full use of the two male and one female. The pub is lovely, the site is quiet and relaxing, overall well worth the £50.

We really enjoyed the providence inn camping experience for 5 days, good facilities and a large park for the kids who we hardly ever seen as they just larked about the site. We had lunch food was good service good couldn’t ask for more. My only gripe was pitch 5 that we were on. It wasn’t long enough as it meets the gravel and we had no where to put our guy ropes to support the front porch and with the weather our front porch was constantly soaked. Not a major problem as we just used the side door. Would recommend for any large family and will be going back in the future

Me and my partner came here for some lunch and we had fish and chip and a Cajun chicken burger and they tasted gorgeous will be going there again would totally recommend to anyone

Food here was lovely we were a group of 11 and every single person enjoyed their meals. Kids meals were also a really good size. Would recommend to anybody looking for a nice county pub to eat.

Found the pub by chance - enjoyed the beer garden and food. We would have visited again if staying for longer ...

First camping outting and couldn't of found a better place.Myself , my brothers, dad and niece had 2 great days and nights here.Beautiful area, great food and a very good pint(especially the guinness).The services to which included wash area, toilets and showers were spot on as well as cleanliness as a whole .Just want to say the staff are so friendly, inviting and helpful they really are, we messed up with not bringing the correct power adapter and lent us what we needed without a fuss. Good play area for kids and plenty of outside seating and a warm area for smokers too.Can't fault in any area to be honest.Will highly recommend and will certainly be returning.

First time we had camped here and would definitely recommend.One of our groups hook up wasn't working but they got that sorted straight away. Clean toilets and showers.Food from the pub was lovely. Home cooked including the chips.No early leave time either so had plenty of time to pack up. Will definitely stay here again.

What an amazing pub welcome from the landlady and young lady staff turned out to have a camping site in the grounds.Black sheep bitter really good and the food was spot on I was worried ordering the steak ale pie as usually microwaved nuked rubbish but it was tasty crusty pie with chunks of steak , chips proper home made but the gravy yum xPartner had a burger which she lovedYes stop and try truly a gem of a placeHighly recommended

Stayed in our friends Dave & Cath Drakes motorhome on Providence Inn camping site. Easy parking and facilities are good.There are mens & ladies toilets and shower facilities. Food was excellent and Vicky landlady and landlord where really welcoming.

Wonderful country pub with campsite at rear. Excellent, local food, freshly prepared to order. Great ales, great hosts, great service. Will be back again, would definitely recommend!!!

I visited the providence inn with friends and family for a catch up! From the minute we all worked through the door the bar staff were very friendly and assertive . I had the sea bass risotto to start and was lovely!!! Followed by a perfectly cooked steak! Rare just how i like it. The landlady came over to check everything was ok and even took our drinks order, which is always a bonus when you have a mouthful! Everyone enjoyed everything and we will definitely return.

We visited this pub on the recommendation of friends and were not disappointed.The food was lovely. Good portion sizes and very tasty. We had the steak and ale pie from the regular menu and mushroom risotto from the specials board. The staff were very friendly and the service was prompt, we will definitely be making a return visit.

We have just got back from a great few days at The Providence! The food and service was second to none. The lady lady and her staff went out of their way to make sure we were happy with the food and service. My son would highly recommend the lasagna and even though they didn’t have baked beans for my daughters jacket potato they went out of their way to ensure she had them. We really appreciated the staff going that extra mile to offer excellent customer service! We will definitely be back very soon.

We stayed here for 1 night and rented the 2 bedroom cottage.We were very impressed and were told that they were in the process of getting a hot tub which would be a great addition. We ate in the pub on the Saturday night and Sunday lunchtime. We really enjoyed our meals. This is a family friendly pub.Our son enjoyed playing darts and there were some board games to play. It was a bit cold for the outdoor play area but this will be great in summer.

we visited the Providence over new year and to the 1920s night. There was nibbles put on which was really nice, great entertainment and such a brilliant vibe. They also put on a mini bus to ensure customers could get home safely which was no cost. We tried the venison which was absolutely beautiful and we defiantly had the belly pork again could not resist. The staff was all very bubbly and attentive we ordered at the bar for food which is understandable as it is not a cafe so some customers could be there for just a social drink. We carnt wait for our next visit looking forward to it. Thank you for having us.

The boy called will behind the bar was very unfriendly and had very poor hygiene. DO NOT GO WITHIN A METRE OF HIM. He smells bad. Nice place doe

This is our local and has always been good for a family tea but we were left uncertain and a little disappointed. The young man behind the bar was not welcoming no smile and barely spoke to us. Wine glass had lipstick on it so asked for a clean glass which he did action but whilst sat at table we heard "she's checking the glass. They are all like that it's just watermarks." Did not appreciate this and if not had children to feed would have left then. We know the difference between water marks and lipstick. Interestingly later a very pleasant and friendly lady told him the glasses needed to be put through the washer twice. This lady when she arrived smiled as she walked past us to check the fire. She served our food checked we were ok and offered additional gravy.... good service.....When setting us up the young man simply plunked mats and unpolished cutlery down no interaction with us at all. Had to go to bar to order food and to order all drinks and to request bill at end. The food was edible although the steak had been ordered rare it was more like medium but it was ok and unfortunately the fish contained lots of bones which luckily was an adult eating it but concern that smaller portions are offered for children - if my young daughter had had fish we would potentially have a safety concern. Nothing said to us but as nobody came to take order I ordered at the bar perhaps this could be clear to avoid confusion? When we approached to pay we weren't asked for feedback again served by the young man. As we left the lady cheerily said goodbye and thanked us. Whilst it was not horrendous it definitely could be better. It doesn't take much to have clean unmarked glasses and cutlery and certainly doesn't take much to smile and give good service particularly to be welcoming. Given that there was only us there could they not have actually served us ie taken order at table, spoken to us, checked for additional drinks etc. There is definitely room for improvement hopeful for improvement for spring as we go often when nice as great having the park too for young child.

Could not highly recommend this pub highly enough, Vicky the land lady took very care of us, will be definitely coming back, thank you

My wife and I called in midweek for an evening meal. We were shown to a table not far from the bar and perused the menu and the specials board. I was intrigued by the cream of cauliflower + cheese soup so ordered this to start, while my wife opted for garlic mushrooms. In both cases we were not disappointed. The main courses were also top quality - my wife's steak pie was good while I went for the mushroom stroganoff (with added steak...). Somehow we fitted dessert in as well, and coffee.The real ales on the bar were also well kept.In summary, good food, well presented and at a reasonable price. Looking forward to our next visit.

Lovely little find. Really friendly staff and locals. Food was very nice and not too pricey. Great having the little caravan pitches at the back. The pitches are a little tight we've got a mover on our caravan but would have been difficult with out. Bonus that there was a singer on when we were there. Would definitely recommend.

Called in on a wet evening for an early dinner. A lovely log fire and some delicious food made our evening. Really enjoyed everything about this pub and hope to return soon.

What a lovely little pub staff were so lovely and helpful stayed in the cottage next store they helped out with fire wood and fire lights lovely food and very good prices

Went in for a Friday night, and sat by the fire, enjoying the drinks... Then out of nowhere got a free cheese board! Therefore, enjoyed more drinks and got sent over free nachos too! Excellent!

Call into The Providence on return trips to York. Always a friendly and warm welcome. Usually sit at the bar and have brilliant conversations with the local people - great characters and great fun. The food always looks delicious and smells soooo good. Wish the Inn was a little nearer for us to visit on a much more regular basis - would be lovely to have it as our local.

Went here yesterday to check it out after reading good reviews. We found staff welcoming and friendly. The pub was creatively decorated for Halloween and the children loved the spacious play area which I’m sure will be fantastic when the refurbishment is complete.

We went over for the weekend and have to say we will be coming back regular for family trips and events. The pub is very clean including the Showers and toilets inside and out. Staff are polite, attentive and give you help if needed everyway possible. The kids loved every minute of there stay at the providence inn the park is great and also getting up graded for next year. The food is amazing hats off to the chef. Dog friendly too which was a bonus so we was able to take our two dogs.

What a beautiful place to go we took our touring van this weekend and it was lovely. A country pub with a lovely roaring fire to keep you warm on the run up to winter months. The food is amazing we had fish and chips on Friday and it was amazing better than any fish shop I been. We had steak pie on the Saturday and it was lovely so tasty. Sunday dinner on Sunday was yummy too. The managers running the pub Vicky are so lovely they can’t do enough for you. Very helpful and friendly. The facilities for tourers and tents etc. Is brilliant. A must place to go highly recommend here. Thanks Vicky and Neil for a lovely weekend

I visited The Providence Inn on Saturday night with my hubby and a couple of friends. What a lovely welcome, the food was delicious, the fire was roaring and the staff were fabulous. We will definitely be returning and would highly recommend a visit x

Stopped over at The Providence Inn again at the weekend. Stayed in our motorhome on the site behind the pub. Showers and toilets were clean and look fairly new. Great view over fields and my two girls didn't find the playgroud a disappointment. Missed having swings but owners said these are on their way next year? The food in the pub was fantastic, so I think the new chef has definitely found his feet. I had the seafood and chorizo linguine from the specials board, which was packed with scallops, squid and king prawns and was delicious! Don't usually take pictures of my food but this dish was one to remember and I hope they keep it on the menu. The girls and hubby both loved their burger and steak pies too. Thinking about coming back for bonfire night.

Had to wait a month before giving a new review after our last visit! Having enjoyed our last visit our grandkids wanted to return on their last day of the school holidays. Returned to find the kids play area had been stripped of most of the equipment.Never mind we thought we will still try the food,another disappointment to find they had replaced the chef with one that couldn't cook chicken goujons without incinerating them! also 1 less portion, chips also overcooked and dry.In fairness our pie was tasty but will not be in a rush to return.

Found this delightful pub a short distance from our holiday let on Hartswood Farm. Welcoming to all with children and dogs. Food was freshly prepared and very tasty! Nice pint of Guinness to wash it down too!

My sister, her dog and I called in here on Saturday 14 September on our way home from an East Yorkshire coast holiday. We missed so many eateries and pubs due to signage too close to the places (meaning that due to heavy holiday traffic meant turning back into said traffic) and I'm so glad that fate was on our side! We happened along this gem later in the afternoon and after enquiring if dogs were allowed in the dining area (yes) we began perusing the menu. Being a vegetarian, I have difficulty finding something special to eat but this time was SO different. I've eaten mushroom stroganoff many times but this was the best! Sis was happy with her meat meal (can't remember what she ordered because I was so intent on identifying what made this stroganoff different and better than any other, but I did have a spoonful of her delicious rhubarb crumble). I mentioned to the waitress that it was the best mushroom stroganoff I'd ever eaten and moments later, she brought the chef out so that I could compliment him on his recipe. He was very humble, but 'chuffed' about what I'd said. Sooo much better vegetarian offering than the one earlier in the week in a different pub. Two photos of the stroganoff and one photo of the burger I tried to eat ('finished plate') earlier. Next year's East Yorkshire coast's holiday I will make sure my sis takes us back to the Perseverence in Yedingham on our way back home. I've made three versions of mushroom stroganoff since coming home but can't get the 'right/same' taste yet, so will keep on experimenting.

Great friendly little caravan site with good tent field. Lovely surroundings and excellent value for Money pub. Good homemade food and very Friday staff. Will definitely return and recommend to friends. 👍👍👍

Called in on a Tues afternoon because we knew the pub had a play area for the grandkids.Had a good pint of Wainwrights and a Stella for the wife served by very friendly young lady.Kids enjoyed themselves running around the field trying out the 4 slides and swings and playing on the boat! Chef happily did us a portion of chips for the youngest and then another wanted chicken nuggets, they luckily did goujons which were very tasty and tender served with salad and coleslaw.Kids didn't want to leave so we will def back and will try out the menu ourselves.

Spent 2 nights in the caravan site behind the Providence. Facilities are really good, with everything you need for your stay. Dined in the pub on the first night, steak pie and chips excellent, sea bass delicious. There's a really friendly atmosphere to this place, the owners even put a dart board up for us so that ewe could have a game on the second night. Beer was good, enjoyed the Wainwright and Guinness in particular - a bit too much really!

We visited the providence today for the first time. The staff were very warm, welcoming and couldn't do enough for us. The outside play area was a big hit with the little one. The food is fresh and home cooked by the resident French chef and is simply fantastic. We are already planning our next visit.

Stopped for a beer (good) and saw Sunday Lunches being served. To appetising to refuse. Excellent quality and very fairly priced. Certainly worth a repeat visit in the near future. Planning on a return with grandkids as big play area. Well done to all at The Providence.

Lovely rustic country pub, with caravan/campsite. The food and drink are fantastic. Set amongst scenic countryside.

Came here yesterday and sat outside to eat our meal in the sun. The food was really lovely and great sized portions (gammon & chips and sweet & sour chicken with rice).

I think this pub is so good the waitresses are lovely people and think the landlady is welcoming and kind I would deffently recommend coming her for food or a lovely drink

On the way back from a day out at Dalby Forest, really needed some good pub food to fill the hole and this was it. Great tasting, big portions. Ace job and the lady that served us was real friendly Thanks

Our friends who live in the area told us a new team had taken over here and it had good comments about the food so we went yesterday (8th May) for lunch. Good friendly welcoming reception from the staff. We ordered drinks at the bar and then a lady came to take our order. The seating was comfortable and the whole place lovely and warm as it was chilly and raining outside. Our food arrived and wow it looked amazing. 2 of us had lasagne with chips, side salad and garlic bread, 1 had the scampi with new potatoes and side salad and the other person had the gammon eggs and chips also with a side salad. We all agreed the meals were spot on and delicious. The bill was approx £29.00 main courses were all £4.95 each. Great value for money. Definitely recommend and the new team must have worked their socks off to produce a clean pub with great food. The lunch menu had about 6 choices and it was difficult to choose. Nice tidy car park. Give this pub a visit I’m sure you won’t be disappointed we certainly weren’t.

Well what can i say, ive visited this pub for many years and have been so dissapointed over the last 5 years. Its so nice to get a warm welcome on my return. Friendly staff,very assertive, me and my family were looked after so well.I had a steak which was cooked perfect and not over priced in the slightest. My son had a burger which he said was "spot on" my daughter had the steak pie and there was nothing left on the plate! We will definitely be back...probably every week with only been on the doorstep. Keep up the hood job guys! Your doing great !

We had been told that the pub had new management and they had connections to the 3 Jollies at Burniston which is always good, so we went along. When we arrived at about 7pm on a midweek night there was only 2 cars in the carpark and appeared to be little action, were they open?As I went to see a very nice young lady came to the door said it was open and come inside to look at the menu. The place was very clean, nice and warm with afire lit. There was one table with a family enjoying a meal which looked well presented. So I went and collected my wife who was still in the car. The staff were very friendly and well trained. The beer was well kept and was good The food was excellent but nothing fancy. The prices were very reasonable. The only downside was we could have done without the TV although it was not loud,we like to go out and avoid the rubbish on the TV. It will not be long before we will return and we are sure the carpark will be full.

Stopped here as we spotted the kids play equipment and needed something to eat. Very friendly staff and the food was excellent (and good value). Plenty of play equipment but some of it is dated and needs updating but the kids loved it regardless.

Just got back from a lovely belly filling meal at this great village pub. It’s just been taken over by new owners and we called last minute with two hungry children and they were able fit us in. I had the steak which was great quality and perfectly cooked. The steak pies and all the other meals members of our party ordered also were a hit. Excellent value.

This pub was badly run now Cayley who runs it knows what people want prove her right and visit this pub soon to have food.

Don't want to get too personal but this is an example of a very badly run pub, management who don't want to work & they employ an extremely rude barmaid. They constantly run out of beer & the food is okay but unimaginative it's a cute little pub but with the lack of both good food & beers, the fire is barely lit & a good clean in the ladies toilet might be an idea this sweet little village is being torn apart by the current management of this pub which seems to be there just for the occasional caravan visitors & not the people who want & need it - it's a great shame. On the plus side, it is newly decorated but lacking that homely feel & there is a very nice beer garden, just a shame about the reason the place is empty - "there is no good leadersip".

Excellent lovely small site with free showers which are kept spotless as are the toilets nice and peaceful site with a pub on the doorstep excellent food thanks Barbara and Glen

My partner and I camped there last night and we both had a great time,the landlady was lovely and we were made to feel very welcome,the staff were simply fantastic and nothing was too much trouble. We can't recommend this place enough and look forward to going back very soon.

We had called in this pub after a long journey (4hours) we had 3 kids and they were so disprectfull towards them it was a disgrace, we waited over a hour for food which came out cold and under cooked. The beer was off, the kids Coca-Cola was very watery, The toilets looked like they have never been cleaned, The staff which there was only 2 (this is a family accommodation) wasn’t helpful after we complained about our food, it was more or less shut up and put up, Please avoid this place never again will my family return to this place. The only good thing about this place was the exit out!!!!!! AVOID

I believe this has been recently taken over & it is obvious that they are trying so it's a little lacking in service & the chips are dreadful please make your own, frozen chips even if they are described as hand cut are like cardboard but it has potential keep going guys :)

We travelled for an he and a half to meet with friends who where holidaying in the area.

It was exceptionally welcoming, nothing was too much for them, Very good location for getting about pickering, thornton le dale, There is a good play area for children and for the fishing fanatic you can fish on the river Derwent, We would definitely recommend this place and definitely be going back.

We went here after seeing the Facebook post saying how it had been refurbished and the prices on offer for camping.

This pubs strap line is "Where you can always be assured of a warm and friendly welcome" and it describes itself as ideal for kids. I have never felt more unwelcome in any pub in my life. Went in for a family meal whilst on hols locally. There were 3 people in the pub and we were welcomed with a glare from the woman behind the bar no smile, no hello. I went to the bar with the intention of asking where we should sit and before I could say anything the woman on the bar said, in a very nasty manner,they (my 3 boys) are not allowed at the bar. Yes...they are not, but they are children and did not know and had she been a little more hospitable she could have directed us to a table and had a nice little earner in the till. Instead we left without a word and went to a much more welcoming pub down the road.....your loss. Lessons in hospitality required here.

It's unbelievable that with such fantastic hospitality and food in this area of Yorkshire this pub remains open.

The Providence was a favourite of ours for years and then unfortunately went down hill. I'm happy to report it's on the up again. The bar is refurbished and looks lovely now with a pool table. The campsite now has a lovely new shower and toilet block and outdoor lighting. With a bit better menu i'd give it 5 stars as the food is just your standard pub grub, nice enough but not amazing. We have stayed 5 nights over two visits this year and will certainty stay again and have no problem recommending it... beautiful views and riverside location.

A very warm welcome to our party of 9 for Sunday lunch. Food was delicious especially the roast beef and large homemade Yorkshire puddings and the gravey was outstanding. Recently refurbished to a high standard and very clean. Looking forward to returning.
