Swinton Park is the ancestral home of the Cunliffe-Lister family and is set in 200 acres of parkland, lakes and gardens. The building dates from the late 1600’s and the turret is five storeys high, including the Turret Suite on the top three floors. The castle is surrounded by the family estate in which guests have access to rivers, reservoirs, moorland, dales and the beautiful Yorkshire countryside.

Lavishly furnished, this is a unique opportunity to enjoy a stately home experience, combining the traditional warmth of a family home with all the modern creature comforts of a contemporary hotel. Each of the 30 spacious bedrooms is individually designed, with a choice of views across the gardens, lake, parkland or gatehouse. The surrounding grounds are designed in the style of the 18th century parkland, with a deer herd of 120, five lakes, woodland and grottoes and a four acre walled garden which supplies the hotel with seasonal produce and flowers throughout the year. Country Pursuits available in the grounds or surrounding estate include fishing, walking, riding, shooting, golf, falconry, off-road driving, and there are also occasional games of cricket.
