We visited the fairfax as part of an organised ales trip up in to the moors. We all felt that the fairfax is a little gem of a pub. Great setting, staff and of course ale. Thank you for the sausages you placed on the bar, these went down a treat. After listening to the comments on the coach you... More

We got a great deal for this place and are so so glad I'd spent time looking at groupon to find this! We upgraded to the Delux Double room which was 100% worth it. The rooms were modern, clean and spacious! The room also had good facilities and the bathroom was lovely! A remote control shower!!! The homemade cookies were... More

Our walking group of 16 OAPS [mainly] spent four nights at the Fairfax, and it worked out really well, despite wet weather. The hotel is effiecient, with the management always helpful; the staff were attentive without being obsequious; the roomswere were comfortable; and the food was fantastic. The area was excellent for walking and sightseeing too: Castle Howard; Ampleforth Abbey;... More

Stayed here for two nights and was hugely impressed. The Fairfax provides excellent accommodation at a great price and also serves wonderful food. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming. I really enjoyed my stay and fully intend to return. This is a very good establishment which deserves all the plaudits it receives.

We stayed in the executive suit through a Groupon voucher, we received a first class reception and through out they stay it was made a pleasure by the staff including making arrangements for our breakfast to be had in our room before our early departure to venture out on a steam train! The area is lovely and roads are fantastic... More

Just had 2 nights here and thoroughly enjoyed every minute. The Hotel suited us perfectly and the food was lovely - best steak pie I've had for ages. Some great walks in the woods nearby and also very handy for Helmsley from where we walked to Riveaux Abbey on the Cleveland Way.

I regularly stay at the Fairfax Arms as my parents are lucky enough to live in Gilling East but don't have a spare bedroom. Andy and Emily are doing a fantastic job. The rooms are comfortable with lots of lovely touches. Dinner choices are consistently delicious and breakfast is freshly prepared and very tasty. But what makes The Fairfax Arms... More

We were originally recommended this hotel for our wedding guests when we got married last year and they enjoyed it so much we decided to try it ourselves. So we stayed at this little gem of a place with the family on the warmest weekend in March. It is a lovely hotel with good rooms and great food. The service... More
