Georgian hotel in Masham overlooking the Market Square
Hotel & Location
Kings Head By Chef & Brewer Collection is a Georgian building dating from the second half of the 18th century, set directly on Masham's Market Square. The hotel offers ample free parking opposite with an honesty box and electric car chargers. Guests can walk to both Theakston and Black Sheep breweries within minutes from the front door.
Dining & Drinks
The restaurant serves specialized menu options during Burns Night and Christmas, plus a seasonal two-spritz-cocktails promotion for £12 in summer. Breakfast offers a diverse selection including continental and cooked options, with gluten-free and Coeliac-friendly choices clearly marked. During winter, the bar uses real wood and coal fires, while the terrace provides outdoor seating for warmer months.
Accommodation
Guest rooms include courtyard apartments separate from the main building, some featuring a roll-top bath for outdoor use. Rooms are decorated with unique historical touches that reflect the building's Georgian heritage. The hotel accommodates dogs in designated pet-friendly rooms with courtyard access.
Family & Pet-Friendly Policies
Families are offered twin rooms and family rooms with sofa beds, plus a children's menu at dinner. Dogs receive a sausage from breakfast staff Gaye and Chris, and there are plenty of nearby riverside walks. The outdoor courtyard seating area allows families and dog owners to dine together without entering the main bar.
Nearby Attractions
Richmond Castle, Brimham Rocks, and the World of James Herriot are all within a 30-minute drive. Two major breweries - Theakston and Black Sheep - are located in Masham itself and offer tours. The hotel provides walk-in bookings for evening meals but recommends reservations as the restaurant gets busy, especially on market days (Wednesdays and Saturdays).
