The Judges Lodging

The personal touch

There’s no shortage of choice accommodation in York, but the moment you set eyes on the Judges Lodging, a magnificent former doctor’s residence, you know you’ve hit the jackpot. A stunning Grade I-listed townhouse dating from around 1730, it was considered to be ‘one of the best houses built in the city’. In 1906 it was bought as the official judges’ residence for use while they were attending sessions at the local Assize Courts. Many of the original features remain – the entire building is shot through with period charm, from the flagstone floors in the cellar bar and the wood panelling in the gracious dining room to the monumental fireplaces in the ‘Character’ bedrooms. But forget any notions of formality; manager Rachel Mayes and her crew have created a relaxed vibe – so kick back and take your time, whether you’re having a bite before striking out to explore the magnificent city or need to recover from a spot of retail therapy. Also take advantage of the two-tier suntrap terrace at the back and the splendid front patio (a great spot for people-watching).

Sticky fingers

A ‘half pints’ menu is available for the little ones, and some dishes are also served in half portions.
Under-16s stay overnight for free if sharing their parents' room; you simply pay for breakfast.

Muddy paws

Guide dogs only.

Alfresco

The full menu is served outside: take your pick from the two-tier suntrap terrace at the back or the splendid flag-stoned front patio.

What’s on?

Easter treasure hunt; Fizzy Fridays – enjoy a bottle of Prosecco for just £15; and numerous national events and celebrations, such as British Pie Week and Yorkshire Pudding Day.

Do not disturb

Sixteen ‘Character’ bedrooms in the old house have immense charm, some with high ceilings, ornate cornices and original fireplaces and huge antique beds – including a fabulous four-poster. Others have a more modern vibe, with tartan wool-padded bed heads and stylish wallpaper. No two rooms are the same, but they’re all generously appointed with immaculate, up-to-date bathrooms featuring whirlpool baths. Five contemporary studio rooms on the ground floor (by the glass-topped terrace) are small but perfectly formed, with checked wool throws, cute knitted sheep tea cosies and immaculate bijou bathrooms. Also on the ground floor are a couple of very comfortable, stylish rooms designed for the less agile.

Mastering the menu

Available throughout the pub, the crowd-pleasing menu has broad appeal; eat as much or as little as the mood takes you. Small plates of teriyaki chicken skewers or butternut squash and Yorkshire Blue cheese tart are perfect for a light lunch, while sharing boards are also great fun – try the meaty ‘butcher’s block’ or the ‘fisherman’s’ version loaded with a salmon Scotch egg, haddock goujons and more besides. Take it easy in the cosy, cave-like cellar bar with its flagged floors, arches and quirky artwork or trade-up to dinner in the high-ceilinged, wood-panelled dining room on the first floor – perhaps a fillet steak with béarnaise sauce, a luxurious fish pie or beetroot and goats’ cheese risotto topped with crumbled Wensleydale cheese. Otherwise, push the boat out with half a Whitby lobster and a bottle of Prosecco. Sunday roasts are particularly good here, and there are some comfortable, high-backed settles for chilling out afterwards.

On the menu

Butternut squash, Yorkshire Blue, walnut and honey tart £5.25
Chicken liver parfait wrapped in prosciutto with apricot and orange chutney £5.95
Homemade lamb hotpot with winter greens £12.50
Duck confit, chorizo and butterbean casserole with duck-fat potatoes £12.95
Rhubarb crème brûlée with ginger biscuit £5

Choice of roast, proper Yorkies and lashings of gravy £12.95

However, if you’re after a taste of Yorkshire, go for a pint of Timothy Taylor Landlord or something from the excellent Trebroom Brewery in Shipton by Beningborough.

WALKING

www.nationaltrail.co.uk
www.northyorkmoors.org.uk
www.nationaltrust.org.uk
Four of Britain's finest National Trails can be found in Yorkshire. The Cleveland Way takes you around the North York Moors from Helmsley to the coast; the Yorkshire Wolds Way is quite gentle, rambling through peaceful fields and over chalk hills; the Pennine Way is a bit more serious and challenging, taking in the Yorkshire Dales on its mammoth journey from the Peak District to Scotland. The purpose-built Pennine Bridleway might also appeal. The scenery is always amazing, and all of the trails can be sampled in shorter stretches. You can even have your luggage transported by a baggage-handling company, leaving you free to enjoy this beautiful county without being weighed down with gear. Bridestones, Crosscliff and Blakely Topping (owned by the National Trust) offer some great walking country in a moorland nature reserve.; the Bridestones has peculiar shaped rock formations, heather moorland, ancient woodland and meadows, while Blakey Topping has superb all-round views.

CYCLING

www.forestry.gov.uk/dalbyforest
www.dalbybikebarn.co.uk
York has a long tradition of cycling and is a pretty bike-friendly place. There’s a good network of off-road cycle paths and on-road cycle lanes to ensure safe access in and around the city. There’s been a lot of investment in sustainable travel and cyclists have benefitted from this. The visityork website had a number of downloadable cycle routes. For long distance routes you have the Trans Pennine Trail, one section of which takes you from York to Selby. Consisting of 8,000 acres of a working forest, north of Thornton-le-Dale, Dalby offers waymarked walks and cycle trails for all abilities (it’s has among the finest trail networks in the UK). The southern part of the forest is a ‘Rigg and Dale’ landscape, divided by a number of valleys, and to the north it sits on the upland plateau. Wheelchairs and electric buggies can be hired, while bikes are available to hire. And by the way, it’s best to follow the signs and not your Sat Nav.

EVENTS & FESTIVALS

www.visityork.org

In March, the York Literature Festival provides 12 days of events. York Open Studios takes place in April – over 50 artists, craftspeople and makers open their studios to visitors. YO1 is a one-day music festival that takes place in May. The Early Music Festival in July brings many of the world’s finest early music artists to perform in York’s beautiful and historic venues. The North York Moors Chamber Music Festival takes place in August, within historic churches across the region. Also in August, the Galtres Parklands Festival is a family festival, with seven stages of music and cabaret featuring lots of activities for children and young people, in the beautiful setting of Duncombe Park, in Helmlsey. In September, the York National Book Fair features over 200 of Britain’s leading booksellers in the largest rare, antiquarian and out-of-print book fair in Europe. In October, Illuminating York is an amazing digital arts and lighting festival, showing the historic city in a new and innovative way.

Inn Location - The Judges Lodging

Cochon Aveugle, 37 Walmgate, York YO1 9TX
Josh Overington isn’t just any old chef; he earned his stripes at Le Langhe, the Pipe and Glass, Tom Kerridge’s Hand and Flowers and the Roux brothers Waterside Inn. He’s a talented maverick, so expect a dinner, which will defy most of your senses; the cooking is intricate, delicate, deliciously good and utterly memorable.

Betty’s Tea Room 6-8 St Helen’s Square, York YO1 8QP
At the other end of the spectrum is this world-famous, elegant tea room with old-school afternoon teas and waitresses dressed in black and white. It’s been around for 100 years so they’ve got hospitality nailed; it’s impossible not to feel genteel even if you’re in jeans. It’s not just dainties though; tuck into savouries such as Swiss alpine macaroni, raclette rosti and Betty’s Welsh rarebit. A real treat.

Yorkshire Food Finder Tour YO1 7DR
York’s only gourmet guided food trek! Consummate foodie Sue Nelson will lead you round the city, dropping in on the best producer and makers in the city. The tour starts and ends at Michelin star holder Andrew Pern’s Star in the City where a specially created menu featuring produce you’ve seen on the trail. A day of fun and great food.

York Cocoa House, 3 Blake Street, York YO1 8QJ
The destination for chocoholics; join in a workshop, drop in to the fab café serving up both sweet and savoury chocolate delights and browse the library containing stories, histories and recipes.

Le Langhe Old Coach House, Peasholme Green, York YO1 7PW
Authentic Italian deli and restaurant; the space might be a tad unimpressive but the food is tremendous – properly rustic Italian classics at affordable prices. Otto Bocca is at the helm and boy does he know a thing or two about putting flavours and textures together.

Betty’s Cookery School, Plumpton Park, Harrogate HG2 7LD
Regardless of your skill level you’ll find a course to suit you at the custom built school in Harrogate. Choose from elegant desserts, cooking with chocolate and bread making for beginners amongst many others.

York Food & Drink Festival YO1 7DT
It’s been running for ten years, it’s the biggest food and drink festival in the country so it’s a must in any true foodie’s calendar - 9 days end September.

Mannion and Co Deli/Bakery, 1 Blake Street, York YO1 9QJ
Great family-run deli, patisserie, artisan bakery and fab café in the heart of the city. Of course you’re in Yorkshire but it’s got a Parisian vibe about it – tres chic! Take home cheese and charcuterie from all over Italy and France, and meringues, macaroons and brownies for the sweet of tooth.

The House of Trembling Madness, 48 Stonegate, York YO1 8AS
It’s easy to miss the door to this unique place, tucked away as it is on ancient Stonegate downstairs, an extraordinary craft beer shop with over 5000 bottles on the shelves and upstairs, a jaw-dropping medieval pub. If you don’t mind a lot of dead animal’s heads on a wall and sharing tables – this is the place for you. Food is simple, tasty and won’t break the bank, with the likes of wholesome soup, pie & pickle and a dish of chorizo in scrumpy. Unmissable.

The Hairy Fig, 39 Fossgate, York YO1 9TF
It’s surprising how much stuff you can pack into one tiny shop. Pop along to the Hairy Fig and be amazed. It is crammed to the rafters with cheeses, cooked meats, hams, sausages, biscuits, jams, pickles, olive oil, fresh figs, kumquats, beats, pickled pears and heaps of Yorkshire produce. When you’ve oohed and aahed over the contents of the shop, the café will serve you stonking boards of meat, cheese and pate with chunky bread or something hot from the specials board.

Meltons, 7 Scarcroft Road, York YO23 1ND
You might think a neighbourhood restaurant that had been trading for near 25 years would be getting a bit tired by now, but not Melton’s. This fine little restaurant off Bishopthorpe Road just south of York’s city walls remains one of the very best places to eat in the city. Chef/owner Michael Hjort is the brains behind the esteemed York Food Festival and what he doesn’t know about local sourcing isn’t worth knowing. His influences are wide so expect Middle Eastern and Asian dishes alongside Yorkshire classics.

Star Inn the City, Lendal Engine House, Museum Street, York YO1 7DR
Andrew Pern’s architectural and culinary delight in Museum Gardens is just a stone’s throw from the Lodging, and a great place for morning coffee, a relaxed lunch or full-on dinner. Michelin starred Pern plunders the best ingredients Yorkshire has to offer – to good effect!

Bluebird Bakery, 104 Micklegate, York, YO1 6JX
Buy gorgeous bread made with organic flour and wild yeast and don’t leave without brownies, tarts and salted caramels!

BOOKINGS AND VOUCHERS

Our site is an online platform that allows you to search for and book accommodation. We are acting as disclosed agent for the relevant inns featured on our site. This means that any booking or contractual arrangement you make with any entity featured on our site is made with that entity, and not with us. By entering information into the booking software, you authorise us to pass on all relevant information to those entities with whom you are seeking to make a reservation, and to control and/or process such data in accordance with the provisions of the Data Protection Act 1998. In order to make a booking you are required to provide credit card details. We will enable the relevant inn to gain access to the credit card details via the site in the event of any cancellation and a cancellation charge is due. By making a booking you are expressly authorising access to and use of such data and for the relevant inn to deduct the cancellation charges notified to you in the event of a cancellation.

Bookings will be subject to the terms and conditions of the individual entity with whom you contract, including any cancellation polices they may apply. It is your responsibility to check the terms of such entities before you enter your contract with them. If you wish to cancel a booking, you must cancel using the site unless exceptional circumstances do not permit you to gain access to the site, in which case you should liaise directly with the inn concerned. In either case you may be liable for cancellation charges. Whenever your booking is cancelled whether directly or via the site, it is your responsibility to check your account with HIP to confirm the booking has been cancelled and to be notified of any relevant charges (and to pay them). If you do not attend the inn on the dates booked, this will be treated as a cancellation by the relevant inn on the applicable terms. The accommodation provider’s cancellation policy may continue to apply after your arrival at your inn. In the event that you decide to shorten the duration of your stay, such a request will be dealt with at the discretion of the accommodation provider, and not by us in our capacity as the booking agent. If you amend your booking in this way there may be a cancellation fee levied by the accommodation provider and you should refer to the provider’s cancellation policy for more details. Where the accommodation provider requires a minimum stay for rooms attracting a certain price, this will be clearly stated on our site prior to booking.

We are not responsible for inaccuracies in the booking process; you must check carefully the agreed dates and prices before completing your booking. In particular, you are advised to check the availability of any offers, promotional codes, or the acceptance of gift vouchers before completing the booking, as well as whether any special requirements you may have can be met. Please note that Inn Places Special Gifts may not be available at all the inns where special promotions are being run, and such promotions may have additional terms and conditions applicable.

Although we gather credit card information to secure the booking, the booking will be with the relevant inn to whom, by virtue of you starting the booking process you authorise us to transmit the credit card information.

To confirm a booking, you must be authorised to make the booking by all the persons named on the booking and their parent or guardian for all party members who are under 18 when the booking is made. By making the booking, you are confirming that all persons named on the booking accept the terms and that you will inform the other persons named on the booking of the confirmation details and any other appropriate information. By making the booking you also become responsible for making all payments due under the booking.

The display of accommodation for hire on the site is an invitation to treat only.

By completing and submitting the booking form you are making an offer to book temporary accommodation room nights, which if accepted by accommodation providers, will result in a binding contract made between you and the accommodation provider.

Completing the booking process online does not constitute acceptance of your offer. We will send you an email confirmation following your booking on behalf of the accommodation provider confirming acceptance of your offer and forming the legally binding contract subject to any applicable terms and conditions.

Because the contract for your accommodation is between you and the relevant inn, any queries or concerns should be addressed to them. If you have a problem during your visit, this must be reported to the inn immediately. If you fail to follow this procedure there will be less opportunity for the inn to investigate and rectify your complaint. The amount of compensation you may be entitled to from the inn may be reduced or you may not receive any at all depending upon the circumstances. If you wish to complain when you return home, you should address your complaint to the inn concerned.
