Georgian hotel overlooking Masham Market Square with dog-friendly rooms and on-site brewery tours
Location & Building
Kings Head By Chef & Brewer Collection is a Georgian building from the second half of the 18th century, situated directly on the Market Square in Masham. The hotel is within walking distance of Black Sheep Brewery and Theakston Brewery, both offering tours. Nearby attractions include Richmond Castle, Brimham Rocks, and the World of James Herriot, all within a short drive.
Rooms & Accommodation
The hotel offers uniquely themed rooms that enhance the historical experience, including a mezzanine room (Room 21) with a courtyard and direct field access for dog walks. Room 4 overlooks the Market Square, while the loft room (Room 17) has low timber beams padded for safety. Courtyard rooms provide outdoor seating and a separate entrance for added privacy.
Dining & Drinks
The on-site restaurant serves a specialized menu for special occasions such as Burns Night and Christmas, plus a vegan selection and gluten-free options. Summer promotions include two spritz cocktails for £12, and a diverse breakfast menu with continental and cooked choices is available daily. The bar area offers a selection of local craft beers, including Theakston's and Black Sheep ales, with outdoor seating in the courtyard.
Pet-Friendly Policies
Dogs are welcome in designated bar areas and courtyard rooms, with staff providing treats and sausages for canine guests. The hotel offers flexible dining options in the bar for dog owners, and nearby fields and rivers are accessible from the courtyard for walks. Multiple guest reviews highlight the dog-friendly atmosphere and the staff's care for pets.
