The Wellington Heifer is a cosy family run inn set in beautiful countryside, and offering comfortable and friendly accommodation, an excellent selection of home cooked food, fine wine and ales.

The Wellington Heifer is owned and run by Stuart Mathers and his father Alex Mathers, assisted by mum Denise and brother James – truly a family concern.

The Wellington heifer is located on the A684 at the village of  Ainderby Steeple, and is an ideal location from which to explore the surrounding region, including the beautiful Yorkshire Dales National Park, the equally stunning North York Moors National Park, the Vale of York, Durham and Northumberland.

The location which is in easy reach of both the A19 and the  A1, means it is ideal for business travels to the area, with Teesside, North Yorkshire, County Durham and York all being easily accessible.

The original part of the pub was built in 1834, when it was called the White Steer. A visit from Lord Welesey in 1890 inspired the name change to The Wellington Heifer in honour of the Iron Duke and his love of Argentinean Beef.
