Myself and a couple of friends took part in one of the necklace drip glaze workshops. We have been here and painted at a ladies night before but this time we wanted something a little different. We were talked through the whole process and given tips and advice the whole way. It was a lovely relaxing workshop and the painting didn't take away time from talking with friends. We're so pleased with the results, the detail on the beads is fantastic and the colours are just beautiful, the photos don't really do them justice. I would definitely do this workshop again for a completely different looking necklace with the same glazes.

The Manor House

The Manor House is one of yorkshires finest traditional pubs with a warm welcome, good beer, an Irish twist and a story to tell, what else do you need!

Having read the review about the vomit incident, totally agree with the Pubs response. I have visited the Manor House on several occasions and found the staff nothing but polite, curious and helpful. I find the atmosphere both warming and inviting. The Manor House has played a prominent roll in the Town for many years, with varying Landlords over those years. The present Landlord has brought his own Family attitude to the place. An outstanding venue, always a pleasure to visit.Let me assure People, the vomit must have been a isolated incident. But sadly,some folks thrive on sticking the boot in.

We enjoyed a lovely Friady night drink at the new Tap in Otley. Great beer. Neat layout after the refurb. Next time we will try the food from the Burger van in the beer garden (you can eat the food back in the pub).
