The best restaurants in Swaledale Richmondshire Yorkshire and The Humber

Missed out on first visit as closed, so made a detour to try the fruit cake and cheese. It was delicious along with very good scones, cream and jam. Generous pots of tea too. Great after a walk in the Dales

Visited for a late breakfast when staying in Richmond. The service was outstanding as was the quality of the food and the Covid measures were spot on. Our breakfast was one of the nicest cooked breakfasts we’ve had in a long time. There’s a little shop on site which has some lovely trinkets and a garden/plant sale too - 3 attractions in one!

Fantastic country pub with great pies and a lovely selection of beer and cider. Cheers

Bar tender did not know his whiskeys. And they did not carry all they had listed

Local community pub with a welcoming atmosphere, local ales and great freshly cooked food at reasonable prices. Highly recommend a visit.

The best pies we have ever tasted. I had locally sourced rabbit with mushroom and leek which was tasty, hot and came with a pile of creamy mash, braised red cabbage and a jug of gravy. Perfectly seasoned and a very generous portion. My husband had steak and ale pie with chunky chips and peas. Service was exemplary and the atmosphere was warm and relaxed. We will be back!

We were the only people staying in the Kearton, and we were renting the 2 bed apartment. The owners could not have been anymore helpful. Didnt sample any food, but have visited many times and have always found it lovely

Only had a cider and soup so cannot comment on the rooms it's a great place to aim for we will visit again

Excellent value traditional Sunday Lunch….perfect place for a wet cold Dales day! We had the roast topside of beef with great selection of vegetables, and dessert to follow. With a couple of drinks each we managed to push it up to £81.00

The location is simply fabulous. At the top of Swaledale with views all around. Set up for walkers - so friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about the area. Mixing with fellow walkers meant a very sociable stay. Room was good size and comfortable. Restaurant bar and lounge were of high quality and brought a high enjoyable stay. Matt and Dave are great hosts. Thoroughly recommended.

Lovely overnight stay at the Kearton. Adam and Caz are the new owners and made us both feel very welcome. Comfy bed and bedroom with all the amenities you need, along with the peace and quiet of Thwaite meant we slept like babies! Woke refreshed and ready for our fabulous English breakfast. We will definitely be back and are sure Adam and Caz will make The Kearton a huge success!
