About The Lister Arms
Free on-site parking sets The Lister Arms apart from many village inns, making it a practical base for exploring Malham and the surrounding Yorkshire Dales without worrying about where to leave the car. The pub itself sits right in the heart of the village, close to Malham Cove, and keeps the feel of a traditional coaching inn with its bar, garden and outdoor seating.
Rooms come with en-suite bathrooms, and family rooms are available for those travelling with children. Breakfast is served each morning, and the restaurant and bar operate on site, with drinks available in room and a packed lunch option for anyone heading out to walk. A 24-hour reception means arrivals and late finishes aren't a problem, and pets are welcome.
The surrounding area is built for walking and cycling, with routes leading out into the Dales straight from the door, and a golf course, pubs, restaurants and other eateries nearby for those wanting more choice in the evening. Whether you're spending the day on the fells or just passing through, the inn offers a straightforward, well-equipped stop in Malham.
