A handsome blend of Georgian and Victorian architecture, Upper Helmsley Hall will transport its guests to a bygone era of elegance and class with oak panelling throughout the ground floor, authentically furnished, yet fully equipped for 21st century comforts. A perfect setting for a very special gathering of extended family or friends, where a game of tennis can be enjoyed in addition to the exquisite accommodation. If you can tear yourselves away, The Yorkshire Wolds and historic City of York are waiting to be explored.

Upper Helmsley Hall retains many of its original features such as oak panelling, exposed beams, sash windows and stunning, intricate cornices. With four reception rooms including the generous Oak room complete with baby grand piano; the welcoming Drawing room with two light filled sitting areas; the Tiger hall with, well ... a stuffed tiger of course, along with desk/study space; and the magnificent fully oak panelled Dining room where to dress for dinner is certainly the order of the day, you will feel you have really 'arrived'. For less formal dining, the large breakfast kitchen has plenty of space for the breakfast table, along with a butler's pantry, comforting Aga, separate conventional cooking facilities, a large fridge/freezer and two dishwashers, making preparations of those important celebratory meals a joy. Climb the stairs to the eight very generous bedrooms, all decorated to complement the style of this stunning Hall. Equally the bathrooms have all been sympathetically restored to cater for modern day guests' needs, featuring large walk-in showers and a roll-top bath.

Outside, to the front of the Hall, sweeping away from the terrace seating area, the main garden is laid to lawn and leads down to the Haha and tennis court for your enjoyment.

This exceptional Hall is the perfect choice for those looking for something extra special, for either short or longer stays.
