Last minute decision to visit York, we came upon this pub. We ate and had a very enjoyable time. Our room was clean and comfortable and our meal was delicious. The staff and management were very friendly, polite and helpful. The breakfast was big, hearty and top class. We thoroughly enjoyed our overnight stay here and will consider it again... More

We stayed at the Lighthorseman in Fulford Road and on arrival was greeted by Geof, a family member, who made us feel very welcome. The rooms, one single and one twin were very comfortable indeed and spotlessly clean. Our full English breakfasts, again prepared by... More

Room was large, spotless and little details like cotton wool and shower gel were a lovely touch. Breakfast was tasty, nothing too much trouble Food in the... More
