I’m used to staying in large hotel chains and have lived in over 20 countries, so when my business booked me into the Countryman’s Inn in Hunton, at first I wasn’t sure what to expect as it’s certainly not my usual type of establishment. On first impressions it’s a pub within the beautiful Yorkshire village of Hunton but stay for a night or 2 and you’ll find out the beauty of the Countryman’s Inn as there is a lot more to it than first impressions. Lisa & Dan run the place - Lisa is a gem, very helpful, smart and just all round lovely. Dan, well more about him soon. My room, 3 was excellent value, the bed was perfect and very comfortable and I enjoyed my 3 night stay with the internet TV. Now to Dan …. He’s the chef for Breakfast and Dinner and quite frankly is outstanding - someone award this man a Michelin Star, and soon. I had one of the finest cooked steaks ever and I used to eat steak weekly when I lived in Alberta for 4 years, in a Canadian Province where steak is cheaper than chicken! I enjoy medium and every part of the cut was grilled on point with seasoning to die for. Chef Dan is a culinary genius. I probably shouldn’t have but I went in for desert and opted for Apple & blackberry crumble - OMG 🤪it was light and airy, not a hint of stoge and rounded off with a perfect consistency custard. I have just found my new favourite chef, it’s just a shame this gem of a restaurant is 5 hours from home. I will find another business excuse and return soon. You MUST visit too.
