Hello and Welcome to
Stone House Hotel

Tucked away in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales, Stone House is an authentic country house retreat – family-run and full of charm, where every guest is made to feel at home from the moment they arrive.

It’s the kind of place where time slows down. Big views, peaceful spaces, and that feeling of being well looked after. Whether you’re here to stretch your legs or put your feet up, it’s a place to switch off, settle in, and make a few memories along the way.

 A Home Away From Home

Stone House is a family-run hotel with deep roots in the Yorkshire Dales.

Looking after people is what we do best; there’s no script – just a genuine, down-to-earth approach and a team who love what they do.

Whether it’s a favourite seat by the fire, a breakfast that hits the mark, or a nudge towards a hidden local walk, we take pride in the little things that make a stay feel special.

Everything here has been chosen with care – from the fabrics and furniture to the food on your plate. It’s our way of sharing what we love about this place, and giving you a stay that feels thoughtful, comfortable, and quietly memorable.

Stone House was built over a century ago as a country retreat, and in many ways, it still feels exactly that. A place to step away, breathe deeply, and let the world slow down for a while.

In the 1980s, Peter and Jane Taplin took the bold step of transforming it into a hotel. More than forty years later, it remains proudly family-run, rooted in warmth, generosity and true Yorkshire hospitality.

Today, Joe and Holly Hobson carry that tradition forward. They focus on the details that matter most: the warm welcome at the door, the thoughtful touches in every room, and the feeling of calm that echoes around the hotel.

It’s not about grand gestures. It’s about creating somewhere you can properly settle into, and somewhere you’ll want to return to, time and again.
