About The Fairfax Arms
Gilling East is a small North Yorkshire village handy for both Castle Howard and the North York Moors, and The Fairfax Arms sits right on the Main Street at its centre. It's a straightforward, traditional hotel geared towards travellers who want a comfortable base for exploring rather than a destination in itself.
Rooms come with en-suite bathrooms, drinks provided, and family rooms are available for those travelling with children. Breakfast is served each morning, and the on-site restaurant covers other meals, with kids' meals and packed lunches available for days out. There's a garden and outdoor seating for warmer weather, free WiFi throughout, and 24 hour reception for flexible arrivals.
The surrounding area suits walkers and cyclists, with routes into the moors on the doorstep, and there's a golf course nearby along with further pubs, restaurants and entertainment within easy reach. It's a practical spot for touring this part of Yorkshire, with Castle Howard among the attractions close by.
