A friendly welcome
Great setting and a well appointed hotel. Very friendly staff and the breakfast team was particularly welcoming. The breakfast itself was excellent and whilst the evening meal was good it was also over priced.
The room was comfortable and clean and we overlooked the village square which made for a pleasant view. The shower was not the strongest but the fluffiness of the towels made up for this blip.
The decor was a little shabby in places but nothing that spoiled the trip.

Great nights stay.
Only a 1 night stay but found the staff very very polite and friendly. Would give the hotel 5 star but it is a bit tired but very clean and tidy.

4th visit to Kings Head as we love Masham. We were in the rooms to the rear of the hotel which were spacious and clean. Lovely hot chocolate, border biscuits and mini green and black chocolate were lovely touches along with the tea selection and fresh coffee bags. We didn't eat at Kings Head but had a nice pint in there to finish the evening. Love Masham and this is our regular play to stay there. Amble free car parking in the market sq it borders.

Upgrade needed
Welcome, room, food and bar area are all good. Staff are friendly, attentive and helpful.
The whole building just needs some care and attention - looking dated.
Redecorating throughout especially in public areas is long over due and if you look closely a deep clean in the high use areas is needed.

Very nice place to stay, lovely breakfast.
Very good location for our trip, lots of nice pubs. I did find having to go downstairs to the bathroom a bit much during the night.

In the centre of Masham so easy to walk around the town and just a short walk from Black Sheep Brewery Visitor Centre. Great base for touring dales. Relaxed atmosphere and very dog friendly.

A lovely little place full of character and features..
Friendly staff.
Being a bit picky, but creaking and uneven flooring on stairs / landing & in our room stopped it getting 5 stars all round…
