My daughters wedding was at Bolton Abbey on the Saturday, we took over the Inn for the Friday and Saturday nights. The location was first class being only 20 minutes from the Church/Abbey. The Inn has a cottage with two rooms attached and a lounge area which was ideal for the Bride, Mother of the Bride and Bridesmaids to undergo hairdressing and make up on the morning. The Timble staff were excellent, special mention must go to Sarah, Emily and Judith, who went above and beyond. The extra special service started on the Friday evening with 20 of us for a sit down dinner, 2 were delayed by over 2 hours and missed the main meal, but an alternative was provided in the restaurant and a cheese board awaiting them in their room. The staff took across bacon sandwiches etc to the cottage for the ladies being made up for the wedding and were generally very attentive. The wedding finished at 12 midnight but on returning to the hotel we couldn't enter as we had forgotten our keys, fortunately we called the Inn and Judith let us in providing us with spare room keys. On the Sunday evening 4 couples stayed to attend a 70th birthday lunch in Ilkley and a cheeseboard was awaiting our return in our rooms at 9pm. I have given a flavour, but it is not easy to give a full picture of just how outstanding the Timble Inn team were, I suppose the highest accolade I can give is that I felt that I had been staying with friends, we were on first name terms, they definitely went above and beyond, with exceptional service, fantastic food and couldn't do enough to make you feel welcome!! A big thank you to Sarah, Emily and Judith as well as the Chef(s) and cleaning staff in the background. We will return as will our friends who said the same.
