Got a question that’s not about bedrooms or the restaurant? You’ll probably find the answer in our General FAQs. Whether it’s check-in times, local must-sees, or the finer details of what we offer, it’s all there. Have a browse – we’ve covered the bits people most often ask (and a few you might not have thought of yet).
Yes we do – and they make a lovely present! Whether you’re treating someone to a night away in the Dales or a long, lazy lunch in our restaurant, our gift vouchers are perfect for birthdays, anniversaries, or just because.
You can purchase them online or pop in and pick one up at reception.
We’re lucky to be surrounded by some of Yorkshire’s most breathtaking sights.
You’ll find Aysgarth Falls, Hardraw Force, and Bolton Castle all within 20 minutes, while the legendary Wensleydale Creamery in Hawes is just around the corner. A little further afield (but well worth the trip), Ribblehead Viaduct, Malham Cove, and Grassington are all under an hour’s drive.
If you're after fresh air and adventure, we have walking and cycling trails right from the doorstep.
Need help planning your day? Just ask – we love sharing our favourite local spots.
Absolutely! Whether it's an anniversary, milestone birthday, or a relaxed countryside gathering - our charming country house makes a wonderful setting.
We offer bespoke packages and have a lovely team of event coordinators who will help plan everything from fizz on arrival to that last slice of cake.
Yes, you’ll find free Wi-Fi throughout the hotel – in your room and all our cosy corners – should you need to stay connected (or upload a snap of your scones).
Yes, we’ve got plenty of free on-site parking for our guests – no tickets, no time limits, just pull up and you’re all set.
You can – we’ve got a dedicated EV double-charging point available on-site. There’s a small fee just to cover the cost of the electricity used, and it’s best to let us know ahead of time if you’ll need it so we can make sure it’s free for you.
Our bike shed is locked and secure – fitted with racks, a pump, and a repair kit for any tweaks. It does get busy during cycling season, so do let us know in advance if you’re bringing your bike and we’ll save you a spot.
The nearest train station is Garsdale, just a short drive away, and the Little White Bus offers a local service through the Dales.
Taxis can be tricky (we are pretty rural), so we strongly recommend booking ahead. Need help with arrangements? The reception team is happy to assist.
There’s a short window in the Yorkshire Dales when the landscape puts on one of its best displays.
In early summer, the upland hay meadows around Muker - among the most species-rich in Britain - burst into bloom. This stunning, short-lived display of natural beauty is a special moment in the calendar.
Our Wildflower Walk getaways are perfectly timed to coincide with peak bloom, inviting you to experience the Muker meadows at their most vibrant. Wander through open meadows alive with colour, scent, and sound, where every step reveals a rich landscape of rare and delicate wildflowers.
Reconnect with nature in the Yorkshire Dales. Then return to Stone House for a relaxed evening, good food, and a comfortable night’s rest.
Available for stays throughout June 2026 - join us while they’re in bloom.

This May Bank Holiday, step into Stone House and enjoy a break in the Yorkshire Dales.
We keep things simple: home-made food, made with ingredients from local farms, dairies, and suppliers. Every plate tells the story of the Dales, from hand-cut meats, rich dairy, and flavours that are rooted in the land.
From a hearty breakfast to kickstart your day, a leisurely lunch, or a mouth-watering dinner, every dish is thoughtfully prepared to highlight the best of our region. And don’t forget cakes and coffees served throughout the day, perfect for a mid-walk pause or just a treat for yourself.
Good food, local ingredients, and a warm Yorkshire welcome. That’s how we do a long weekend.
Reserve your table or your stay via the website.

As many will know, we’ve never been ones to take centre stage here at Stone House. From the very beginning, we’ve believed that the hotel is not defined by its owners, but by its people – the wonderful team who make the hotel so special, and the fantastic guests who bring such warmth and good cheer.
That said, we also know there’s a natural curiosity about who’s behind the scenes, so we thought it was time to properly say hello. We’re Joe and Holly, and this is our daughter, Amelie.
Whilst much of what we do goes on in the background, we’re very much hands-on and present in the day-to-day life of Stone House – working closely with the team to gently shape the hotel’s operations, and to make sure everything runs smoothly. There’s no private equity firm or investment group behind us – we’re just a small, family-run business, doing our best to support and care for the place we love.
We see ourselves as custodians of Stone House, and we take that responsibility very seriously. Our aim is simple: to protect what makes it so special, and to ensure that it remains a welcoming home for our guests and a rewarding, enjoyable place for our team to work – for many years to come.
Since taking over in November 2022, we’ve felt incredibly fortunate to work alongside such an exceptional team – their genuine care, professionalism, and pride in what they do are at the heart of everything here. They really are what makes Stone House so unique.
And, of course, we’ve so enjoyed meeting so many of our guests – and have been deeply touched by the warmth, kindness and loyalty shown to us. It’s a privilege to welcome such lovely people to this special place, and we feel very lucky to be able to share it with you.

A countryside stay is even better with your four-legged friend by your side.
At Stone House, we’re always happy to welcome well-behaved dogs in a selection of our rooms, making it easy to enjoy a proper break in the Yorkshire Dales together.
After a day spent exploring, they’ll find a few thoughtful touches waiting back at the hotel too: a cosy spot by the fire, a snuggly dog blanket in their room, and a dog bed and treats on request.
Because out here, the best days are the ones spent outdoors, and they’re even better when everyone gets to join in.

Behind every stay at Stone House is a team who genuinely cares about the place.
Many of them know the surrounding hills, villages and hidden paths better than any guidebook.
Need a walk recommendation or a quiet spot with a beautiful view?
Just ask.
It’s the little local knowledge, and the warm Yorkshire welcome that makes a stay here feel different.
