Owned and operated by Hand Picked Hotels, Wood Hall Hotel blends historic charm with modern luxury. Built in the 18th century as a country retreat for the Vavasour family, this beautifully preserved stone building sits just 25 minutes from Leeds and Harrogate. Perched on a hill, surrounded by 100 acres of woodland and manicured lawns, it offers a peaceful escape from city life.
Wood Hall Hotel is the kind of place where time slows down. If work feels overwhelming or city life is wearing you down, a night here might be just what you need. Breathe in the fresh country air and let the serene surroundings work their magic.
With just 44 luxurious bedrooms, the hotel has an air of exclusivity. Four-poster beds, bronze detailing, and elegant draped curtains capture the romance of 18th-century design. At the same time, contemporary comforts ensure a relaxing stay.
During your stay, be sure to venue out. Take a stroll through Ox Close Wood, where the East Keswick Wildlife Trust protects local wildlife. Or for a change of pace, venture into Leeds for scenic country walks or lively city attractions.
No stay at Wood Hall Hotel is complete without a meal at its on-site restaurant, which holds two AA Rosettes. The Georgian Restaurant serves modern British cuisine with a seasonal twist. Expect hearty classics, delicate flavours, and fresh ingredients, including wild herbs foraged from the hotel grounds.
