2 Aussies in the King's Arms.
Our stay at the Kings Arms was a delightful few days for us. Thirsk is a very interesting place with easy access to the Yorkshire Dales and Moors. Our host was happy to share his local knowledge with us which was very helpful.The hotel food was excellent.

Eat there, don’t sleep there.
No shower rail or curtain, 2 single beds pushed together, bright fire escape light in room, noisy (thin walls).
Great food!

Hidden Gem near Thirsk
I couldn’t fault The Kings Arms, from the friendly, helpful welcome to the spotless accommodation, I had a double room for myself with an immaculately clean en suite which was very spacious. The bed was very comfortable which was ideal as I was using it after some long walks all weekend. The free WiFi was a bonus and the tv in the room accessed lots of streaming channels for chilling in the evening.
Breakfast was catered to your choices and was an ideal start to long days out walking.
On my return in the evening I was able to eat in with a delicious and varied menu where the hosts went out of their way to provide this, even though they had a busy bank holiday weekend of regular diners.
I would recommend this establishment to anyone wishing to stay in the Thirsk area as it is only a few miles out of the town in a quiet village. I would definitely use it again.

The hotel was lovely, friendly, gorgeous breakfast and was most enjoyable stay. We arrived at the hotel early and managed to get into our room early which was a major benefit. There was only one issue which you cant blame the hotel for, we had some really noisy guests next door in another room which was rather scary due to the noise being created. If the noise had carried on then would have considered calling the police as we did not have a number to contact at the hotel in an emergency.

Beautiful BandB. I arrived at 930 as pub was closing which was a shame.
Room was fresh and very well cared for but freezing. The thermostat on the radiator did not control the radiator and i could not get it working so was very cold. The radiator came on in the morning which tells me it was switched off the previous evening!
On morning of check out which is 11am, i was woken by the housekeeper letting herself into my room. Not happy
