This is a gem of a b&b, amazing location a gorgeous property fab hospitality and finished off with the most tasty breakfast. Everything has been thought of and it's exactly what a b&b should be. Located a stones throw from the river the view is outstanding and ideal for a lazy weekend. We would definitely stay again.

My husband and I have just returned from an overnight stay with friends at Gallon House. What a pleasure it was to stay there! From the moment we arrived, Rick made us feel very welcome. We all felt so completely relaxed as we enjoyed drinks and nibbles in the conservatory, watching the last of the evening sun settle over the... More

Thank you so much for your very kind review. I have often been a single female travelling for work purposes and recognise how very important it is to feel safe and welcome when away from home. We hope that you will come and stay with us again at Gallon House. Thank you. More

We were first attracted to stay at Gallon House when it was featured in House Beautiful magazine in 2009- and it's just as lovely today! My Husband and I have stayed at Gallon House a couple of times now and were recently once again treated to wonderful hospitality. We were met on our arrival with genuine warmth by Sue who... More

Gallon House is rather special. Amazing views from the house and guests are able to sit in the conservatory overlooking the gorge or alternatively in front of a fire in the lounge. We enjoyed a beautifully cooked meal worthy of any fine restaurant with the other interesting house guests. The house is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The bedrooms themselves... More

The hotel has wonderful charming decor and service. But it is all about the little patio, Overlooking the viaduct. It is such a wonderful view that is breath taking every morning. Everything else at the hotel was sublime. breakfast was filling, the bedrooms were tastefully decorative with a nice modern twist on traditional high and "B n Bs"

Gallon House is a three bed room B&B situated on an extremely quiet street in the heart of Knaresborough. It is 50 yards from the railway station but is not affected by any noise in the least. The b&b has been beautifully restored by Rick and Sue over the years and has clearly been a labour of love. There is... More

We've stayed at Gallon House several times now, for romantic escapes from everyday life, for weekends with family, staff incentives and to impress important business associates. No matter who we go with, the effect is always the same, as soon as we enter the hallway which is always filled with soothing music, we give a huge sigh, as we know... More

We stayed here on a long, slow food weekend. From the moment we arrived we were welcomed warmly and our every need catered for, often before we realised we needed it. Due to a cancellation we had the rare pleasure of the place to ourselves, although I got the distinct impression this wouldn't have made an iota of difference to... More
