Middlethorpe Hall and Spa

Middlethorpe Hall and Spa is a historic country house hotel, restaurant and spa set within gardens and parkland close to York. The William III house combines period character with accommodation in the main house, the courtyard and separate suites, creating a choice of settings for overnight stays and short breaks.

The restaurant reflects the atmosphere of a traditional country house, with breakfast, luncheon, afternoon tea and dinner among the available dining occasions. Afternoon tea provides a classic daytime option, while luncheon and dinner offer a more formal setting. Private dining is also available for occasions that call for a dedicated space. Summer lunches can be served al fresco, adding an outdoor dimension during the warmer part of the year.

Accommodation ranges from bedrooms in the main house to courtyard bedrooms and suites, alongside a cottage suite and a garden suite. The overall style is refined and residential rather than contemporary or minimal, with the historic building and landscaped grounds shaping the character of a stay. The setting gives the hall a country-house feel while keeping city attractions within easy reach.

The spa provides a separate way to spend time at the property, with treatments, spa days and membership available. It suits guests looking to add structured relaxation to a hotel break, as well as visitors booking treatments without an overnight stay. Treatment bookings and spa offers form a distinct part of the venue's hospitality alongside its accommodation and dining.

Middlethorpe Hall also accommodates private occasions and organised gatherings, including weddings, meetings, events and private dining. Seasonal events can include garden tours, lectures, luncheons and dinners, extending the experience beyond a standard hotel stay. The gardens and parkland provide space for a slower pace, while the house, restaurant and spa give the property several complementary uses.

The venue is suited to visitors seeking historic-house surroundings, traditional dining, spa time or a base for a country-style break near the city. It also caters for family stays and dog-related accommodation, with arrangements depending on the booking. The combination of period architecture, landscaped grounds, dining rooms and treatment facilities makes the property appropriate for overnight breaks, celebrations, private events and restorative day visits.
