About the Venue

Swinton Park is a luxury castle hotel in the Yorkshire Dales.  With 30 bedrooms and 5 meeting rooms, this is one of the highest rated hotels in Yorkshire and Cumbria.
Traditionally furnished, guests enjoy all the warmth and comforts of a stately home, whilst at the same time modern facilities such as WiFi access are available.
Modern British cuisine is served in the sumptuous dining room, with an emphasis on produce sourced from the hotel's four acre walled garden and surrounding countryside.  There is also a sitting room and private dining room available for the exclusive use of smaller groups.
Just 8 miles from the A1 and 50 minutes from Leeds and York, the castle is surrounded by 200 acres of parkland, offering guests exclusive access to lakes, gardens and woodland.  A sense of peace and privacy pervades, and activities on offer include golf, fishing, shooting, riding and falconry.  There is also a spa with five treatment rooms and a gym, and a cookery school run by the celebrity chef Rosemary Shrager which is available for private groups for team building and incentive events.
