Quick Yorkshire-related question

[strange_complex]

Julius Caesar answers are on hold until Monday, I'm afraid. I've half-written them, but was too snowed under to post them on Thursday, and then Mum arrived for the weekend so I'm busy doing stuff with her now - shopping, house-hunting and the opera this evening.

Just time to post a quick question relating to her visit, though. She's come up in the car, so we thought it would be nice to drive out to a local village tomorrow for a pub lunch. Does anyone from this part of the world have any recommendations? For example, which direction out of Leeds would we be best advised to drive in if we want nice scenery and pretty villages-with-pubs? And does anyone know of any particularly good places for a nice pub lunch?

Thanks in advance for any tips!

We went out via Otley in the end, but didn't make it as far as Ilkley - the carvery at the Red Lion in Burley in Wharfedale called to us, and that was that! Extremely good, though.

Sounds like someone on that review site you linked to had had a pretty miserable experience at the Old Glen House, but maybe they were just unlucky!
