"Right in the city’s historical centre"
Overview
Sheltered by one of York's medieval city gates, this inn is a handy stop on a circuit of the city walls. The panorama from the elevated beer garden incorporates these historic features; relax here or settle into one of the cosy snugs in the very atmospheric Georgian interior.

About the area
North Yorkshire, with its two National Parks and two designated Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, is England’s largest county and one of the most rural. This is prime walking country, from the heather-clad heights of the North York Moors to the limestone country that is so typical of the Yorkshire Dales – a place of contrasts and discoveries, of history and legend.
