Nice village setting, good parking, decor in the rooms a bit tired. Good in the evening was really poor
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.

The room was a little damp and the bathroom wasn't as well cleaned as it should be. The staff were lovely and very helpful. The restaurant choices were hood and food was good.
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…
Staff are lovely and look after guests well. Unfortunately the whole place is ready for a face lift and rooms are tired. Food was ok but dishes not available and a real variance in quality/quantity. Once a refresh and refurb in place, then will be a great place to stay again in the future. Thanks to all the staff for all their efforts and cheerfulness, it was really appreciated.
