A gorgeous country house hotel in the Yorkshire Dales with fine dining and a superb spa, perfect for the ultimate upscale rural retreat - includes breakfast, dinner credit options, spa perks and more
  • Stately home-from-home: The Devonshire Arms is housed in a traditional 17th-century coaching inn, within the sprawling 30,000-acre Bolton Abbey Estate owned by the Dukes of Devonshire. Enjoy grand interiors, complete with chandeliers, antique furniture, rich upholstery, and luxurious individually-decorated rooms.

  • Aristocratic eats: Dine at The Garden Room, a relaxed and inviting space overlooking the garden and the estate beyond. Innovative dishes take inspiration from local flavours and use seasonal produce, including ingredients harvested from the hotel's very own kitchen garden. You can also head to the Brasserie & Bar for classic favourites, and even make time for a quintessential English Afternoon Tea.

  • Dale-side detox: Treat yourself to a trip to the hotel's adults-only spa, set in a luxurious converted barn and complete with an indoor pool, sauna and steam room. Indulge in one of the world-renowned Temple Spa treatments on offer, and let your cares melt away as you immerse yourself in the lush surrounding countryside.

The Devonshire Arms Hotel & Spa sits on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales. To get there from the South, head northbound on the A1 or M1 towards Leeds, then take the A660 towards Beamsley. The nearest airport is in Leeds, at half an hour's drive.
