The castle, which became a hotel in 1976, dates back to the 14th century, when it was converted from a manor house by Sir Ralph Lumley and it is still owned by
Sir Ralph’s descendants, with the 13th Earl of Scarborough involved in its day-to-day running. All the beautifully appointed rooms are uniquely decorated, perfect for a relaxed getaway in a beautiful historic setting and provide all the refinements you’ve come to expect in a modern hotel room.
