A note, on behalf of all in our group, to thank the hotel for the efficient way in which you dealt with our stay last weekend. The rooms were comfortable and clean, and the food was first class. The one error with a canalside room was sorted out very quickly which was much apprecated. We were made to feel most welcome, despite a busy time for you. We try to visit different locations for our annual rambling weekends so may not be back as a group, but could well be as individuals, and we would certainly recommend the hotel to other rambling groups. Many thanks again, and to you Rebecca for all your work on the booking.

Peter Jones, Wingrave Ramblers

The room is delightful and the food was commented on by many of our friends and family a being a lovely spread. We have recommended you to our funeral directors (...). Our initial meeting was with Agata, she was sensitive, efficient and generally a pleasure to deal with, very helpful.

Val Barker

Thank you once again for a wonderful weekend. Staff are always helpful & welcoming, plus Bill in the restaurant makes us feel special.

Lesley + The Foxy Ladies

Thank you very much for a very enjoyable stay and successful rugby tour. The hotel was very comfortable and the staff extremely helpful, I would recommend the hotel to family and friends.

Angela Worsley

(...) I would like to thank you and your colleagues for making our stay at the rendezvous so pleasant and successful. Everyone agreed that it is the best hotel we have stayed at; the facilities were excellent as was the service, the cleanliness and the food.

No decision has yet been made about next year's holiday but I have no doubt we will return to Yorkshire at some point and the Rendezvous will be our first choice for accommodation. We would certainly have no hesitation in recommending the Rendezvous to anyone.

Mike Berman, "Kings Lynn Ramblers"

I would just like to express my thanks and to all your staff for a truly wonderful stay at your hotel I am very critical of hotels having had a 10 year career in the industry. The room was immaculate, and trust me I look! Your staff on duty were just fabulous. Don't tell the chefs as we need to keep them on their toes( I was Front of House Manager and never the twain shall meet!!)But I can honestly say you served the most fantastic breakfast I have had and I have had a few, Oakley Court, Windsor, The Swan Grasmere.....

Thank you and please let your team (as it clearly is) just how fantastic they are.

We have just spent 3 nights at the Rendezvous hotel over Christmas. As the weather was so bitterly cold, we were a bit concerned that the hotel might be cold, but we had no need to worry! It was nice and warm and we even had a fan heater provided in our room to use as we wished. The room itself was spacious and had a lovely view over the frozen canal and countryside. The food at the hotel could not be faulted especially the speciality porridge at breakfast times! The service too was excellent and the staff were always polite and helpful.

Hello everyone at The Rendezvous,

Thank you for your recent letter and I would just like to also thank you and all the staff there for making our weekend for the Hash House Harriers extra happy and special.

I have to say that all of the staff we encountered were cheery and friendly towards us, I realise we are a rowdy bunch but it seems to have been taken in the good spirit it is intended, no awkward faces but great and efficient service, everyone seemed to try very hard for us.

Food was very nice and the lovely waitresses kind and efficient.

We used the pool facilities too and found it very enjoyable, and the staff always willing to assist there.

We couldn’t fault your hotel and service and I just thought you would like to know that.

It isn’t all hotels who will put up with loud and very enthusiastic but well intentioned people, as all at The Rendezvous did, but you did it very well and we look forward to next years event with great excitement!

Many thanks and kind regards to all,

Lay Down Sally and Runaround Sue.

First let me say how much everyone enjoyed the hotel, everyone remarked on the friendly atmosphere and the facilities are excellent. Breakfast was 1st class and dinner was second to none.

As for golf, we played 4 courses on this trip, Rudding Park (Harrogate) are very professional and put on an excellent days golf and the course is top class. Two courses in your area, Nelson and Keighley, both provided us with well organised and enjoyable golf, although the weather had a bit of a negative effect at Keighley but both well worth a visit. Lastly Wetherby Golf Club, a very good course in good condition and again well worth a visit.

Finally, we are planning on a repeat for next year so I'll be in touch shortly.

The associated and partners of the Crewe society were delighted by their choice of your hotel (rendezvous hotel) for their annual dinner on April 16th 2010, together with an over nights stay for some. On behalf of the Society we thankyou for such excellent good in such sophisticated surroundings. The society exists for the Northern based alumni of Lincoln College, Oxford and our members have many years of events experience. They are thus very critical, but we did not hear one word of criticism. The staff were highly praised not only for their efficiency, but for the plesant manner in which they carried out their duties.
Joan Whitehouse

Just a quick email to thank you for all your help regarding the weekend my group have just had at The Rendezvous Hotel. The group enjoyed all of the walks I provided for them from the hotel on Friday, Bolton Abbey Estate on Saturday and yesterday from Grassington to Coniston and back.

Every one of the 23 (including my wife and I) had a great time at the hotel, special mention of thanks to the Restaurant team superbly lead by Lindsay.

All the hotel staff have a suberb attitude, I spoke to many from chambermaids, leisure club, restaurant and reception, without exception all were superb.

Finally a special mention of thanks to you, all that I required to organise my group was supplied with rapid response to any queries.

Please pass this email on to the hotel owner; he should be proud of you all.

Mike Stoney

Lidingo Motett Choir and I would like to thank you very much for being part of making our choir trip to Yorkshire such a lovely and wonderful experience.

Your hotel was absolutely great, the food fabulous, the service good and the staff very friendly. We would never think twice about visiting you again the in future.
Pernilla Watson

Thank you so much for a wonderful evening on Saturday, so many of our guests have commented, saying The Rendezvous Hotel service and staff were fantastic. Also our thanks to the kitchen team, the food was delicious.
Sarah Kirwin, School admin officer, Bradley School

I am writing to thank you and your staff for a superb lunch on Thursday 20th May 2010. The meal was excellent. As always Lindsay was brilliant!

We do always appreciate your generous support, and look forward to our next event with you in November.
Carole Fay

I am writing to you to formally thank you and the Rendezvous Hotel for recently supporting my Annual Police Charity Quiz and Auction Night. The fantastic auction prizes you donated were was excellent.

I must give special mention to your Assistant Manager Chris Rushton, who worked really hard in helping me prepare the venue and make the event a great success. He is a genuine credit to your business.

If it wasn’t for your fantastic generosity of businesses such as yours then my annual event just would not be successful.

On behalf of myself, North Yorkshire Police and the two charities, I give you our sincere thanks.
Steven Menzies, Skipton CID
I would like to add Euravia’s thanks to you, Malcolm and your team for looking after our customers. They have told me that they were delighted with the service, food and accommodation at the Rendezvous Hotel.
Thank you and best regards.
Dennis Mendoros on behalf of Euravia
We want to say ‘Thank You’ for allowing us to use the Rendezvous Hotel to meet guests and to board the boat on Thursday for the Polish Memorial Service. Thanks also for providing a room for the tea and sandwiches. It was great for people to have refreshments and be able to meet and chat after the service.
Many thanks.
Cath and Jim
We (my wife and I) would like you to know how much we enjoyed our stay last weekend in your hotel. The hotel is very confortable and welcoming, your staff very efficient and courteous and the function room you gave us was really good for our purposes. We would like to thank you all for making the weekend one of the very best we have had in the 20 odd years we have been going. if I may single out one for a special mention may it would be Michael Stubbs in the restaurant. He dealt with a problem (of our making not the staff's), and which affected just me, so well even though he was obviously concerned about it. I appreciated that. But again all your staff were very good.
Kind Regards,
Phil and Eileen Morgan
(Hope to be back next year)
I just wanted to thank you for a fantastic evening on Friday night. Everyone has been very complimentary and some people have asked if we can do the same again next year. I thought your staff were excellent and very professional, particularly the manager on the night. The cabaret was great fun and really added something different to the event. Well done to the people who set the room up too, it looked wonderful.

I guess there’s always something we forget, could you let me know if you have our remote control which we used with your projector equipment, we left it behind!

Thank you so much again for all your coordination in the planning of the event and on the evening. I felt very confident that everything would run smoothly because you are so in control of every detail.
Kind Regards,
Lisa Kelly | Executive Assistant | Systagenix

Lindsay,
May I take this opportunity to thank you and your staff for what was an excellent weekend, everyone who attended said they had a wonderful time.
As you can imagine we have held these events at many hotels over the years, but we can honestly say that this year rates as one of the most enjoyable, the service and friendliness of all the staff was excellent.
Once again on behalf of everyone who attended, a big thank you to you and all the staff.

Ken Garside, Albert Lodge of Freemasons, Shaw.
