The Board Inn faces the green and the river at Lealholm, with a beer garden that runs down to the water beside the old bridge. Reopened under new management in 2026, it serves locally sourced food and has five en-suite rooms. Its position is hard to beat: the stepping stones, the tea rooms, the shop and the station are all within a few minutes' walk, and the Esk Valley Walk passes the door.
