Broughton Hall is a majestic sanctuary set within 3,000 acres of wildlife, woodland and parkland in the Yorkshire Dales. The estate enjoys a rich history and a bright future as a place to stay and retreat.

Broughton Hall brings something exquisite and unique. It’s a getaway like no other, offering splendour at every touch point – from the interiors, to the setting, the service and beyond. It’s grand yet inviting, historic yet feels like home. The hall is available for exclusive use and sleeps up to 32 guests across 17 elegant bedrooms, all with undisturbed views across the estate’s beautifully landscaped gardens and parkland. Boasting opulent interiors in its magnificent state rooms and bedrooms, as well as glorious gardens lapping up the house, it’s the perfect place to experience something special and celebrate in style in large groups.

Stepping into the entrance hall is like stepping into a movie – you immediately feel a sense of history and all that has gone before in this magnificent stately home. Leading off the hallway are the impressive state rooms, dining and billiard rooms, along with the beautiful glasshouse – the perfect spot for a glass of champagne and afternoon tea. Curl up by the fire and get lost in a book from the library, sip on cocktails by the grand piano in the red drawing room, or admire antique furnishings in the green drawing room. Each and every space offers something truly unique and inspiring.

The hall boasts an expansive commercial kitchen, fully equipped with everything you need to enjoy an exquisite dinner. There is an option to hire the in-house chef and catering team, who for an extra charge can create bespoke menus using the finest ingredients. Foodie celebrations can be enhanced with wine cellar tours and tastings, with the guidance of a specialist sommelier.

The hall’s 17 suites are all set on the first and second floors, elegantly furnished with sumptuous beds, most with en-suite bathrooms and with stunning views across the grounds. The penthouse suite is found on the second floor and offers an extra level of privacy with a luxurious lounge of its own.

The hall has a dedicated concierge team who are discreetly on hand to ensure guests enjoy every aspect of their stay; from keeping the fires roaring in the cooler months, to preparing bedrooms into restful retreats as day turns to night.

Broughton Hall is set within the Broughton Sanctuary, named in National Geographic Traveller’s The Cool List 2024; the 30 most exciting destinations to visit in the world. With the natural landscape at its core, Broughton Sanctuary invites guests to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life with curated, restorative retreats.

Avalon can be booked for private use during your stay.

THE LOCAL AREA

Skipton and Bolton Abbey

Skipton is a quaint and friendly town with nostalgic cobbled side streets, a busy farmer’s market and traditional high street with alleys and passages between what were originally narrow landholdings known as tofts and crofts. There are a number of unique and independent shops, pubs, and cafes to explore.

 

The town also boasts the Craven Museum in the Town Hall with various exhibits relating to many aspects of Dales life. It is also home to a rare Shakespeare First Folio dating back to 1623; there are only 230 copies in the world and the Craven Museum copy is one of only four First Folios on permanent display in the world.

 

In nearby Embsay, you can board the steam locomotive, take in the beautiful scenery along

the way and hop off at the Bolton Abbey Estate – well worth a visit. The Domesday Book

recorded the Bolton Abbey estate as belonging to Earl Edwin of Mercia. The estate was 9,240 acres in size covering places such as Malham, Gargrave, Skipton and Addingham. In 1539, the priory was destroyed and looted during the dissolution of the monasteries, with only St Mary’s and Cuthbert Parish Church remaining. This Gothic church was upgraded during the 19th century and is still operational for members of the parish. Today, the estate is some 30,0000 acres, owned by the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire and is a popular tourist attraction.

You’ll find wonderful walks and stunning scenery almost everywhere you turn in this area of the Dales. The River Wharfe flows through including The Strid, a narrow gorge less than two metres wide at some points. The Embsay and Bolton Abbey Steam Railway is a volunteer-run service that runs between the two villages on Sundays with weekdays added in the summer to transport larger numbers of tourists. The route uses part of the old Skipton to Ilkley line, which closed in 1965.
