Bed and
breakfast at Brimham Rocks in the lovely Eileen Payne offers guests a warm and friendly welcome to her old historic farmhouse, sheltering under the famous Brimham Rocks. Originally the farm was part of the Manor of Brimham and along with other properties in the area belonged to Fountains Abbey. When the dissolution of the monastries occurred in 1539 the old grange was pulled down and later rebuilt by Michael Inman whose initials and date(1657) appear on a stone over the doorway. Today it still has a very fine six light mullioned window and many other interesting features.
There is a spacious lounge with colour television and splendid views across the valley and of Brimham Rocks. The house is fully centrally heated. Eat your meals in a dining room where John Wesley preached on his visits to Nidderdale. Breakfast is varied and involves fresh fruit and traditional cooked breakfast farmhouse fare. An optional 5 course dinner is offered but there are also nearby inns and restaurants with an excellent range of food.
Bed and breakfast is £24.00 per person for the first night, reducing to £22.50 for subsequent nights. The optional 5 course dinner is £13.50.
