Your country home…
Dense GREEN WOODLAND. ELEGANT MANICURED
LAWNS. REFINED EDWARDIAN ARCHITECTURE.
CRATHORNE HALL IS A NORTHERN LIGHT THAT
KEEPS ON SHINING.
Built in 1906, overlooking the Leven Valley on the edge of the Yorkshire
Moors, Crathorne Hall is at once grand and stately, warm and welcoming.
Owned by the Dugdale family until 1977, Crathorne Hall has played host
to politicians, courted royalty, and delighted socialites over the decades.
Yet despite moving in stately circles, the house has stayed true to its roots
as a place of entertainment and relaxation. Now it is yours to explore.

Sit back and relax…
THE MOST CHALLENGING DECISION YOU WILL HAVE
TO MAKE IS WHETHER TO INDULGE IN AFTERNOON TEA
OR OPT FOR A GLASS OF CHAMPAGNE.
Here, in our lounge areas, you are free to kick off
your shoes and make yourself at home. Read the
papers by the fire, curl up with a book, challenge
friends to a board game or stretch out on one of
the comfy sofas.
After lunch, take a stroll around the grounds
before trying our signature afternoon tea in the
Drawing Room. A house tradition, this includes
a choice of home-made cakes and fruit scones,
our local Yorkshire Curd Tart, sandwiches, and
varieties of speciality teas – all accompanied by
idyllic country views.

There is nothing quite like private dining to mark
a special occasion – a birthday, anniversary or a
large get-together with friends or family. Before
your event we will listen and get to know your
tastes and ideas. Then, on the day itself, our
experienced team will make sure everything runs
smoothly – from the first drink to the final coffee.
Choosing a room, like selecting a dish, is an
important decision. You could opt for the
Edwardian Room which looks out across the
lawn, the Presidents Lounge with the adjacent
reading gallery or perhaps the intimate Adam
Room with its feature fireplace. Whichever you
choose, prepare for some true star treatment.

we can offer a diverse range of activities – from the classic

Scalextrics. Our team will be on-hand from start to finish to
make sure even the most unique – or competitive – event
goes smoothly.

Magical celebrations…
WEDDINGS, BIRTHDAYS, ANNIVERSARIES, FESTIVITIES… THERE ARE MANY

On your special day everything simply has to be perfect

enjoy the moment.
We have a range of rooms licensed for Civil Ceremonies
and Partnerships. The Presidents Lounge is perfect
for an intimate service, while the Drawing Room

Pure bliss…
SOFT WARM FABRICS, RICH SPACIOUS SUITES AND STUNNING
VIEWS ACROSS THE YORKSHIRE MOORS. THE END OF THE DAY
IS JUST THE START OF A WHOLE NEW EXPERIENCE.
Each of our 37 bedrooms has its own unique
character – there are large family rooms and
stylish suites including the romantic
Crathorne Suite. But whichever room you
choose, you can expect the same high level
of comfort. All rooms offer DVD and CD
players, flat-screen TVs, high speed internet
access and unique Hand Picked toiletries.
If you are feeling peckish, just pick up the
phone. Choose a dish from our à la carte
menu or, for something a little simpler, make
a selection from the ‘comfort food’ menu.
To round off your evening, pick up a movie
from our own library of classics ranging from
Casablanca to Pulp Fiction.

YOU WILL NEVER HAVE TO LOOK FAR.
16 Crathorne Hall
Spend your visit doing as much, or a
little, as you want. Borrow a pair of our
Wellington boots to explore the grounds
or, for pure exhilaration, we can arrange
activities including clay pigeon shooting,
archery and quad biking. If all that seems
a little too much like hard work, why not
enjoy a game of croquet on the lawn?
Beyond the house are the Yorkshire Moors,
a beautiful area of fields, farmlands and
forests dotted with stone-built cottages.
While just a short drive from the house are
the ‘must-see’ sights of Jorvik Viking Centre,
Northumberland National Park and the
market town of Yarm.

Here at Hand Picked Hotels we
have brought together 17 diverse
properties. There are secluded
country retreats, sea-front
promenades and awe-inspiring
mansion houses, to name just a few.
Wherever possible we have kept
and restored the original features:
from the big architectural gestures
to those small historic quirks.
Perhaps most of all, we have aimed
to give every destination a relaxed
‘Hand Picked’ feel, more like a family
house than a formal hotel. Whether
you stay for one night, or two weeks,
you are invited to kick off your shoes
and treat us as home.
