Comfortable Bedrooms in beautiful Nidderdale

The Wellington is a traditional 18th-century pub in the village of Darley, surrounded by the beautiful countryside of the Nidderdale National Landscape. Oak beams, stone floors and open fires give the inn plenty of character, while wide-reaching views provide a reminder that some of North Yorkshire’s finest scenery is waiting just outside. 12 comfortable en-suite bedrooms provide a restful retreat after a day outdoors and locally sourced Yorkshire produce takes pride of place on the menu, accompanied by cask and craft ales, guest beers and plenty of cosy corners to unwind. Brimham Rocks, Pateley Bridge and Fountains Abbey are close by, while the spa town of Harrogate is ten miles away.

Bedrooms

After a day exploring Nidderdale, the Wellington Inn’s 12 bedrooms offer a comfortable place to put your feet up. There is a good choice of accommodation for different stays, from doubles and twins to options for solo travellers. Cyclists are well catered for too, with secure bike storage available.

Food & Drink

Food at the Wellington has a reassuringly Yorkshire focus. Dine in the restaurant, which has beautiful views over the Yorkshire Dales or in the cosy ambience of the Gun Room. Expect comforting pub favourites alongside seasonal dishes, freshly prepared pizza and lighter choices, with vegetarian and gluten-free options available too. The bar is every bit as inviting, particularly when the fires are lit. Cask and craft ales and changing guest beers sit alongside wines, gins and spirits, with plenty of cosy corners to relax and unwind. The outdoor decking and countryside views make an appealing spot for a pint in the summertime.
