Autumn time in the Yorkshire Dales must be one of the most spectacular, as the landscape shimmers in the soft sunlight, highlighting the golden leaves of the changing landscape.
The Devonshire Arms Hotel and Spa invite you to stay and experience this mellow season, with their ‘Autumn Harvest’ short break offer.
Their midweek bed and breakfast stay gives guests the chance to explore this glorious landscape with many extras, including the bonus of free night. Make time to explore the varied terrain of the privately-owned Bolton Abbey Estate. There’s over eighty miles of pathways criss-crossing parts of the 30 000 acres of native habitat, including riverside walkways, ancient woodlands, waterfalls, wild moors and craggy outcrops.
With so much space to explore, it’s likely that once you are beyond the popular hotspots such as the banks of Bolton Abbey itself and The Strid, you will seldom pass another walker. It’s a chance to escape and switch off, enjoying the richness of the season’s wild flora and fauna. A complimentary refreshments voucher is included in your stay for the riverside Pavilion café, located close to the stepping stones of the Abbey. It’s the perfect spot for a well-served cuppa and slice of home-made cake to refuel after a country ramble.
The idyllic setting of this country hotel alone makes for a relaxing haven, and the ancient barn across from the hotel is the icing on the cake. It houses a newly-refurbished spa, with an indoor heated pool featuring vitality jets and relaxation bubble areas – bliss for invigorating tired muscles after long walks.
Use of the spa and its facilities included for each day of your stay, with indulgent and relaxing Temple Spa treatments available as an optional extra. The hotel also has a daily itinerary of activities for leisure and wellbeing, with a variety of complimentary activities to enjoy such as yoga, meditation and guided nature walks.
Nourish yourselves with a seasonal harvest of freshly picked and gathered produce, created into delicious seasonal dishes, served in the remodelled Garden Room restaurant, its décor inspired by botanical and floral themes. Choose from a seasonal tasting menu, or à la carte selection with suggested wine pairings. From this bright and airy conservatory style restaurant, enjoy views over the stylish courtyard garden.
With so much to enjoy on the doorstep, it’s tempting to immerse yourself in the hotel and its surrounding open countryside for your entire stay. Venturing further afield, The Devonshire Arms is ideally located for North Yorkshire’s outstanding natural beauty spots and historic towns such as the Forest of Bowland, and nearby Skipton, Harrogate, Knaresborough, Ripon and the cosmopolitan city of Leeds.
