Run by Elaine Knowles,
this licenced farmhouse tea room, is situated in the heart of rural North
Yorkshire. Whether you travel by car, cycle or walk to Feizor on
one of the many footpaths that meet there, Elaine's is a must to
visit for excellent home made food at reasonable prices. In short
just excellent value for money.
Dad's first
visit was in February 2009, on a walk with Uncle Bob, when there
was just one room inside for customers. Since then Dad and Uncle
Brian have been many times, seeing the business grow
dramatically, including Elaine and family having to move their
living room upstairs to make way for further seating for
customers. There is also an extensive area with seats for those who wish to sit outside.
Now busy
every day, there is usually a table available (it is however advisable to book in advance at weekends and Bank Holidays), and
you are always guaranteed a friendly welcome. Like Dad and Uncle
Brian, many other customers come again and again. What better
recommendation can there be. The tearooms are open daily from
09.30am to 4.30-5pm. Closed Christmas Day, Boxing Day & 27th
December. Last orders for hot food 3pm (Monday to Saturday) 3.30pm (Sunday).
A wide range
of excellent food is on offer, all home made, with the meat
coming from their own farm. Whatever your taste, you are sure to
find something to your liking.

GETTING THERE
Travelling towards
Settle on the A65, where the road swings sharp right, take the
narrow lane straight ahead, signed Feizor 3/4mile. At the small
triangle go left along the road marked cul-de-sac, into Feizor.
Home Barn is in the centre of the hamlet on the left.
From Settle, cross the
river into Giggleswick and climb up the quiet road, until at the
top of the hill a narrow road signed Feizor goes off right. This
leads to the triangle. Here turn right on the road marked
cul-de-sac.
NOT TO BE
MISSED IF YOU ARE IN THE AREA
Oh, and why not take the opportunity of seeing the donkeys called Brian and Gerry. They are usually in the field near the overflow parking area. Amongst other things, we understand that they have a liking for polo mints, which are on sale in the tearooms.
