It also contains an open fire, for which a first basket of logs is provided, and a large bar with a bottle fridge, so guests can have a night at the pub without leaving the accommodation.

Upstairs, in the first-floor south wing there is a large kitchen with two gas range ovens and hobs, three dishwashers, two microwaves, two kettles, two toasters, two washing machines and two American fridge/freezers.

The kitchen is situated opposite the dining room, also known as the Byron Room, which has plenty of seating for all guests and offers views of Riber Castle, the limestone cliffs, the River Derwent and the village below.

The room is named after Lord Byron, who is one of several high profile historic guests at The Temple.

Adjoining the kitchen is the lounge bar, another place for guests to enjoy a drink during their stay, which also has its own bottle fridge.
