About The Red Lion...
A Warm Family Welcome Before the bridge was built, the buildings where the Red Lion now stands were situated on a ford across the River Wharfe. When the river was in spate, these buildings offered refuge & temporary lodgings to those who could not cross. In the 16th Century, the permanent buildings you see now began to arise and the Ferryman s Inn orignally entitled Bridge Tavern became the beautiful country Inn which is now the Red Lion. Bought by Elizabeth & Andrew Grayshon in 1991, The Red Lion & Manor House has now passed into the capable hands of their four daughters - Sarah, Victoria, Katy & Eleanor, who, with their husbands & families, continue to provide visitors with the same service that has kept the Red Lion as one of the most popular destinations in the Dales. Breathtaking scenery Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty Grade II listed building
