This is without doubt the best B&B I have been ever stayed at. Fantastic service and attention to detail (down to there being a bottle of sun-tan lotion on the table in the garden). Made to feel really welcome, first time staying and only for one night, but left feeling like we had been many times before and were almost... More

This B&B accommodation is a personal favourite of mine. I have stayed here on numerous occasions. To quote a poem by William Lisle Bowles (1762 – 1850): Beautiful landscape! I could look on thee For hours,--unmindful of the storm and strife, And mingled murmurs of tumultuous life. Here, all is still as fair--the stream, the tree, The wood, the sunshine... More

We've stayed with Andrew and Jayne at Ackroyd House every year since 2008 and never been disappointed. We've just enjoyed a three night stay and once again had a really enjoyable time. There have been changes - the garden is more beautiful than it was and the breakfasts even better than they were! Try the haddock and poached eggs or... More

This 5star b&b is in the most beautiful place, looking out over hill and dale. The 2 suites are very generously sized with everything you could need there including a sherry decanter. The hosts Andy and Jane cannot do enough for you. Breakfast was a meal that lasted the day and lots of choice. We will be going back again... More

We have just had the most delightful stay at Ackroyd house. The accommodation, food and hosts are first class. The room was magnificent with every luxury considered. The choice of menu for breakfast was extensive and delicious. The hosts were warm and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. The accommodation was set in beautiful and well kept gardens that...

All the previous reviews have said it all. From a lovely welcome, a superb room (the Stable Suite in our case), fantastic breakfasts, the situation is superb with terrific views, Jayne and Andrew offer a five star plus B&B at Ackroyd House. If you are in the Holmefirth area and don't stay here you really are missing a treat. We... More

My wife and I, together with our three-year-old daughter, stayed for two nights in the Stable Suite and had a wonderful time. Very comfortable and clean, with an outstanding breakfast. We were made to feel very welcome and my daughter really enjoyed running around the garden and throwing the ball for Snoop the dog. Outstanding views over the valley, and... More

Stayed for 2 nights in the Valley View room and the view from our room was stunning and so was the room itself. The garden was beautiful which there dog Snoop seemed always full of energy running around in having fun. Andrew & Jayne were really friendly, always happy to help and made us feel very welcome. The breakfast myself... More

From the moment we arrived at Ackroyd House we were very impressed with everything. The rooms were wonderful, spotless, large and lots of little extras. The views were lovely and the garden beautiful. The breakfast was unbelievable, nothing was too much trouble for Jayne. This really was the best B&B we have stayed in, they deserved a 6 star rating... More

We have stayed with Jayne and Andrew for several years now. We come for the Shepley Spring Folk Festival each year, but to be honest, if the Festival wasn't on, we'd have to invent an excuse to come back. We stay in the ground-floor Stable room, as my husband is disabled. There is a walk-in shower, but not completely level... More
