WELCOME TO THE PRIORY

A BOUTIQUE GUEST HOUSE IN THE HEART OF THE YORKSHIRE DALES

A small request
Please help small businesses by booking direct.  In challenging times the significant commissions charged by online travel agents really do add up.   Some dates are only available as a direct booking and may show as not available on our website so please call us. 

The Priory has 4 very individual B and B rooms together with a 3 bedroomed  self catering Coach House.  The Priory sits opposite the magnificent Middleham Castle.  Why not take over all the rooms in the Priory for your own private house party.  3 of the 4 bedrooms and The Coach House are dog friendly.

Middleham is famous for its hundreds of race horses and the castle. We have 4 pubs/restaurants, two antique shops, and a general store. 

Chris and Sarah have brought  this handsome building back to life.  With our love and passion for wanting to create an experience you won’t forget – decorated with a quirky mix of antiques and contemporary pieces providing luxury in a historic building. Can you spot Sarah’s sheep  and chandelier obsession!

Indulge in a luxurious bath filled with bubbles – we have traditional roll top or sparkly copper baths in three of our rooms combined with large power showers.  We have exceptionally comfortable beds with crisp white bed linen, fluffy towels and bathrobes.

We have a beautiful garden and a large guest drawing room offering space to spread out and relax – enjoy the view of the castle or folly walled garden, pick up a book from the bookcase and in the cooler months curl up in front of the fire.

Breakfast is not to be rushed – served at a time to suit you.  Chris has perfected his full English, using locally produced yummy ingredients .  Special vegetarian and dietary options available too.

We  look forward to welcoming you.  

Check in is from 4pm to 7pm – outside these hours please contact us.

Check out is 11am
