Sophie's B&B

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this bed and breakfast, and it exceeded all our expectations! From the cozy rooms to the delicious breakfast, every detail was attended to. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to ensure our delightful stay. I highly recommend this hidden gem for anyone seeking a relaxing getaway.

I’ve just spent the weekend based at Sophie’s in the delightful little bustling village of Hampsthwaite on the edge of the Dales in Nidderdale. Next door is the thriving Joiners Arms with the friendliest happiest staff we’ve ever known in a pub (it was full watching the Six nations finale with England playing). It wasn’t a one off either ! The next night was a quiz night with a full house too. All the components one would wish to find in a thriving village community! Sophie also has the lovely well stocked village shop too. We stayed at Sophie’s (one in the Shepherds Hut out in the garden with views over the fields to the Nidd). It was surprisingly spacious and delightful! You venture out to the loo located with a lovely shower in the smaller hut next door. My only thought would be to have slightly taller chairs to match the height of the pull out table but understand why they’re small ! It was very relaxing & comfortable followed by breakfast in the coffee shop tea rooms which are a perfect place to enjoy the views of village life or relax into the comfy sofas. I don’t think I’ve ever met more relaxed easy going hosts who produced a lovely cooked breakfast and easy atmosphere which was great fun. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay located just a few minutes away from Harlow Carr RHS and Knaresborough/Harrogate Totally recommend a stay or a trip to the excellent quality Coffee Shop (which is light capacious & airy) or indeed Hampsthwaite itself to the Joiners Arms for lunch or dinner. Being from Kent I had forgotten how amazingly warm easy & friendly almost everyone we met were to us and made us feel so welcome & comfortable Thank you Sophie & Steve 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Sophie’s B&B and coffee shop is lovely. We stopped for just one night, on our way to Northumberland. We would have loved to stay longer! Every aspect - the warm welcome, comfortable accommodation and superb breakfast - is top-notch. Highly recommended!

This very comfortable Café with rooms is delightful. We made a last minute decision to stay over and booked over the phone. We had the twin room as the Double and Shepherd’s Hut were taken. It was a very comfortable room spotlessly clean and having a nice view. Breakfast (included) is taken in the Café and was very good indeed.

Set in a very quiet area with lovely views and gardens. Parking was available out the front, but signs to get in a bit confusing and left standing without welcome in shop. Room was clean enough, but could have been better. Ensuite was good size and lovely and warm. Internet was very hit and miss, certainly needs improvement, given this day and age. Breakfast was good.

Just a gem, lovely room with exceptional views and extremely comfortable. The breakfast is 10/10 and Sophie, Steve and all of the staff are just so lovely and welcoming! Picture postcard village and we can’t wait to go back! Highly recommend!
