The Experience
Guests feel right at home in this informal, friendly 16th-century farmhouse. Outside, you’ll find hens, cats and dogs, bees, Doris the horse… Inside, all is cosy with well-loved family pieces.
A winding steep stair leads to big bedrooms, two more equally inviting ones are out in the converted 18th-century smithy. All have tea trays, homemade shortbread, TVs and Roberts radios – and comfy private sitting areas to come back to after a day’s exploring. Breakfast is a sociable affair – tuck into homemade muffins, garden red and black currants and honey, poached pears with cinnamon, a sizzling full Monty with eggs from the farm or a Whitby kipper.
Maggie’s enthusiasm for this glorious area is infectious – you’ll love the walks in the Dales and Moors (she lends maps), Ripon with its cathedral and good restaurants is a 10-minute drive and there are lots of historic homes and gardens to visit.

B&Bs do not get better than this.Good location for large area around, excellent hostess and food. Beautifully quiet even for people used to living in the countryside. Good restaurants and pubs locally as well. Visitor info best ever received at hotels or B&Bs. A peach. Sawdays are always good but this is in another class.

Introducing
Maggie Johnson
Charles’ family have lived at Mallard Grange since 1933. Maggie used to work in TV until she moved to the farm; she's been doing B&B since 1993 and happy guests return again and again. She loves riding her horse and bee keeping. They have two children who've flown the nest. Indy the Cocker Spaniel and Labrador Tia live here too.
One perfect stay! Maggie is so welcoming, the rooms quiet and very comfortable, the breakfasts magnificent (even for Yorkshire!). Maggie and her team went out of their way to ensure our stay was perfect in every way. Hope to be back - soon!
