Super family weekend at this gorgeous family home. Gardens and views simply stunning. Spacious enough for an extended family gathering. Thank you.

It is such a beautiful property and exceeded all of our expectations! The facilities in the property are excellent with everything you could ask for, including two dishwashers! Yorkshire Escapes were extremely helpful both in the lead up to our stay and during the weekend for any questions we had. Thank you for a lovely stay! We would definitely recommend the Grange and hope to come back!

We had an amazing stay at The Grange in April the house, grounds & area was beautiful! We will definitely be back in the future.
Thanks again to Yorkshire Escapes.

We loved staying at The Grange – it was perfect for our family weekend celebrating my 70th birthday. The house was cosy and traditional, and all the beds very comfortable! Thank you for having us!

Had a lovely weekend at The Grange. The house was spotless and had a charm to it. We loved playing games by the fire in the evening, and exploring the Dale during the day.

Lots of space to hang out in the dining room for meals, chat, and general fun. It is a spacious and impressive period property with great outside space for kids and dogs. Easily accessible being less than a mile from Leyburn. Overall a top place to stay with a family! Recommend.

We enjoyed the gardens and grounds and the marvellous views. The kitchen/dining room is a fantastic sociable space and all the bedrooms are comfortable. We would warmly recommend it for gatherings of family or friends.

The Grange in Spennithorne is a fantastic place and we had a wonderful time. The home is beautiful, with great views, but it wasn’t just the terrific rooms and amenities, it also had a peaceful, welcoming feel. Strongly recommended.
