Hex Wildlife Hotel
Lovely hotel for Yorkshire wildlife park. It makes visiting much more enjoyable at a reasonable cost. Especially when travelling from some distance away. The staff are friendly and welcoming and nothing is too much trouble. The wild bistro do a great breakfast but could do with healthier options ...

Ringwood Hall Hotel & Spa
Rooms are spread out through a sprawling building. Lots of long corridors and up and down stairs. Having said that, the rooms are nice, bed comfy, and clean. Breakfast was also good, but not exceptional.
