Stone House is made for memorable get-togethers.
Laid-back spaces, stunning views over Wensleydale, and a menu bursting with local, seasonal flavours. Whether it’s a special milestone or simply a chance to gather with your favourite people, we’ve got everything you need for an unforgettable celebration. Just show up, and we’ll take care of the rest.
Just you, your favourite people, and the whole house to yourselves. Book Stone House exclusively and it’s all yours – no schedules, no crowds, just good food, great company, and a place that feels like home.
Catch-ups, celebrations, or just finding the time to be together – Stone House is made for it. Lounge, linger, and soak in some of the Dales’ best views. Whatever the occasion, we’ve got the space, the food, and the team to make it happen. Come as you are – leave happy.
Stone House is a great base for shoot parties, whether you’re staying as a group or taking the house exclusively. Set in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales, the hotel is ideally located for some of the best driven pheasant, partridge, and grouse shooting in the UK. Then, after a successful day in the field, return to warm hospitality, hearty food, and a well-stocked bar – the perfect way to relax and celebrate.
Whether it’s high-performance sports cars or classic vintage vehicles, Stone House is a perfect pit stop for car enthusiasts. Stay the night, book the house, or simply stop by for lunch and enjoy good food, comfortable spaces, and beautiful Dales scenery in the company of fellow petrolheads who share a love of great cars and warm hospitality.
Bring your team together for inspiring meetings, creative workshops, and meaningful collaboration in the heart of the Dales. Thoughtful spaces, tailored activities, and the beauty of the surrounding countryside provide the ideal backdrop to focus, connect, and recharge.
Stone House offers a charming setting for film and photo shoots, combining beautiful interiors, character-filled rooms, and sweeping Dales landscapes. A calm, private environment with on-site accommodation, parking, and logistical support helps bring your creative vision to life.

As the clock ticks towards midnight and our New Year guests celebrate in true under-the-sea style 🐚🐠 – yes, a lobster, a seahorse and a mermaid actually did walk into the bar this evening! – we want to pause and say a heartfelt thank you.
To everyone who has stayed with us throughout 2025 - we are so grateful for your support of our independent, family-run hotel, and for all the people who work within it. We wish you a very happy, healthy, and prosperous 2026, and we hope you’ll continue to choose us for your stays in the Yorkshire Dales.
We’d also like to raise a glass to our incredible team - quite simply the best we could hope for. Thank you for your dedication, resilience, good humour, and for the genuine care you show our guests, each other, and us. We couldn’t do this without you - nor would we want to.
The photo here is from our recent staff Christmas do - an epic house party at Stone House with partners and friends. Not everyone could make it into the photo, but it serves as a little memento of a well-deserved chance for our hardworking team to let their hair down, get merry, and dance the night away.
Here’s to a fantastic 2026 🥂✨
With all our best wishes,
Joe & Holly
🎄✨ We hope you’ve all had a lovely Christmas!
Here at Stone House, we’ve loved welcoming back a full house of our wonderful guests, and sharing in all the festive fun - cheers with cocktails, deliciously indulgent meals, plenty of hugs and laughter, a spot of friendly competition in our Christmas Day parlour game, singing along to Harvey’s acoustic set, and dancing the night away with swing singer @thejasonisaacs
We couldn’t possibly capture it all, but here are a couple of clips to give a taste: the heart-warming Hardraw Choir carols on Christmas Eve (turn the volume up!), and our gorgeous Boxing Day walk - the perfect way to burn off all that festive indulgence!
Thank you to everyone who made this season so special 🤍✨

Dear James and Kate, chefs and all the Stone House Team
On behalf of all the Family, I wanted to write and say an enormous big thank you for all your amazing work for our mum’s 90th Birthday celebration - everybody LOVED every minute of it. Your kindness, calm, organisation and the delivery of fantastic and delicious food and your unbelievable hospitality shone through at every moment of the day.
The food was incredible and the service amazing - what people have said since the day, time and time again was how kind and helpful you all were and that anything was not a problem for you in creating the most memorable day for our mum, family and friends and what a warm and friendly venue you have.
From the moment I phoned you James you were nothing other than helpful, accommodating, positive and professional - I felt totally in safe hands with you and Kate in the planning of it all - that was hugely appreciated!
You are a special team of people, with big hearts and you have a very special hotel and deliver cracking delicious food - Thank you, thank you, thank you!
With warm wishes for a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
Hope to see you again in 2026!
From all the Family
