Since joining the Thwaites family last year and becoming the sister pub to our neighbours at The Lister Arms, we’ve been on a mission to make The Buck Inn the true home‑away‑from‑home for the explorers of Malham. Bit by bit, we’ve made changes, listened to your feedback, and shaped a vision for what The Buck should be - a warm, characterful Yorkshire inn that honours its past while stepping confidently into its future.
The Buck Inn has been a staple of Malham for decades. Generations of walkers, climbers, families, and four‑legged adventurers have passed through these doors. This building has stories in its stonework - and we're giving it the TLC it deserves.
With Thwaites’ long history of crafting great hospitality, and The Lister Arms - one of the most loved inns in the Dales - as our sister pub, we’ve had the perfect support behind us. Together, we’ve been shaping plans that expand our hotel rooms, elevate comfort, and enhance the guest experience in ways that reflect everything you’ve told us over the past year.
This refurbishment isn’t just a lick of paint. It’s a full reimagining of what staying at The Buck should feel like - cosy, welcoming, rooted in Malham’s landscape, and ready for the next chapter of explorers who’ll call this place home for a night or two.It’s been quite the journey already, and we’re only just getting started.Here’s to the next chapter of The Buck Inn - refreshed, renewed, and ready for many more decades of memories.
Sneak peeks coming soon…
