Guide to Accommodation Types
Bed and Breakfast - A smaller establishment run usually, though not always, by the owners. Provides a room for the night and breakfast the following morning. Rooms are not always en-suite and may require you to share a bathroom that is situated across the landing. Occasionally, rooms will be advertised with a private bathroom for the exclusive use of the occupants of that room. However, the bathroom may still be situated across the landing. Where en-suite facilities are not provided, this is reflected in the lower price point of the rooms.
Guest House or Guest Accommodation - The Camberley, The Lodge and Camberley Cottages, all fall into this category. This is the halfway point between a small hotel and a Bed and Breakfast. The establishment is usually larger and employs a greater range of staff. Although some Guest Houses provide evening meals and have a licence, our business does not. The main reason for not offering evening meals is the abundance of excellent restaurants and places to eat in Harrogate. There are 40 eating establishments within a five-minute walk from our location, and, similarly, there is a wide choice of bars too. We do, however, provide glasses and ice, should you wish to bring your own alcohol.
Parking arrangements
We have 9 parking spaces serving 11 rooms which means we can almost always fit all guests cars into the car park. In the unlikely event that a guest cannot find a parking space in our car park, we can offer an all-day parking permit. If you are staying in Harrogate after check-out time, you can often leave your car with us. Alternatively, we can issue more permits. Most satellite navigation systems take you straight into our car park. There is a £10 per stay parking charge.
Are your rooms ensuite?
Yes, all our bedrooms have en-suite facilities.
When are breakfast orders required?
We cook everything fresh to order, so we do not take orders the night before. However, we do ask that if you have any special dietary requirements ie gluten free, vegan etc, you let us know either at the point of booking or at check-in.
If you need to be out after breakfast at a particular time, please let us know and come down for breakfast in good time. We cannot guarantee that your breakfast will be ready at the desired time. We do our best, however, if you get caught behind a group of ten who have just ordered, there will be a delay.
I have special dietary requirements can they be accommodated?
We keep the following items in stock:
Do you offer a Vegetarian breakfast?
We offer a continental buffet which includes cereals, fruit juices, yogurts, fruit and toast. If you prefer a cooked breakfast, we can provide vegetarian sausages in place of the pork sausages.
Can you do Omelettes?
We are very sorry, but we are a small kitchen and do not have an overhead grill. It is impractical to rearrange the oven in order to cook omelettes.
Can you do Room Service Breakfast?
We are very sorry but Room Service Breakfast is not available. This is for practical reasons: our kitchen is in the basement and with accommodation on three floors it is impractical to deliver breakfast to the rooms. We do not have the staffing levels to do this and the food would get cold due to the distance it is carried. Additionally, some of our rooms do not have a suitable location for the food to be served or eaten.
Can young children stay at the Guest House and Cottages?
We are sorry but we cannot accept children in any of our accommodation. We are an adults-only establishment.

We are a short walk from both the bus and train stations (these are situated next to each other in the centre of town).
