Bay Horse Inn, Goldsborough

A large, much extended, stone-built pub in a planned estate village associated with the local Goldsborough Hall, a former home of King George V's daughter. Refurbished in 2019, the pub is now operated by the owners of Goldsborough Hall. The pub looks like several buildings have been joined together and the interior has a mix of styles reflecting this. At the front is a split level lounge in half timbering, next to this is an L-shaped restaurant area, with a further eating area tacked on the back, and there is a separate traditional public bar complete with bench seating and a darts board. At the back of the pub is a large beer patio with bench tables and parasols surrounded by pleasant gardens, while an annexe to the side of the pub houses five letting rooms. It is a very friendly place doubling as village pub and restaurant. Décor is traditional posh pub with a nice carpet, dark brown furniture and tasteful prints. Three handpulls serve cask ales mostly from local breweries but sometimes also some from further afield.

Goldsborough is on the Knaresborough Round walking route.

NB. The pub is closed on Wednesdays in January and February.
