Standing right beside the soaring ruins of Byland Abbey, this stone inn has built a name for careful, produce-led cooking and a much-praised Sunday roast. Time a visit with a look round the Cistercian abbey on the doorstep, or make it the reward at the end of a walk out to the Kilburn White Horse cut into the escarpment to the north-west.
