The Blue Lion

Tucked neatly within the vast expanse of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, the 18th century Blue Lion at East Witton is the sort of little hotel that, once discovered, becomes your little secret getaway. Paul and Helen Klein have run the Blue Lion Inn for over 25 years creating a blend of quintessential English coaching inn with modern comfort to relax and recharge. Whatever you require of the Blue Lion, be it real ale and food at the bar to candlelit fine dining and beautiful accommodation you can be sure that your stay will be homely, welcoming and full of friendly character. The 15 English country styled rooms are split between the main house and the converted stables (all with either en suite bathrooms or shower rooms) and exude a country smart homeliness. Downstairs in the bar, ponder the menu on the chalkboard while you enjoy one of the hand pulled guest ales or smarten up and head off to the wonderfully romantic fine dining restaurant. Either way, you'll get the best of local Yorkshire produce and warm service. It's no wonder that the Blue Lion Inn is Michelin Recommended, was named Inn of the Year by The Good Pub Guide 2014 and The Sunday Times Travel Magazine recently choose The Blue Lion Inn as one of it's 6 Of the Best Pubs with Rooms!
