Gorgeous luxury hotel in the Dales
Superb hotel! The rooms and decor are lovely with very high levels of comfort. Fantastic food and wonderful staff and service. The hotel is in a gorgeous seting and there are wonderful local walks in the Dales. A particular highlight for us was a guided walk from concierge guide Jane Clarke which was a wonderful experience. Highly recommended.

Top notch anniversary break
We’ve stayed at the Hotel a few times. We like the friendly, attentive and helpful service without it being simpering inauthentic and over the top. We booked a superior room which was spacious with a separate dinning and sitting area as well as a four poster bed and beautiful bathroom. Perfect for an anniversary break. The views across the courtyard garden to the hills beyond were perfect. Food in the brasserie was great with a really enjoyable dinner in the restaurant on our anniversary. The hotel catered really well for my wife’s plant based diet, thoughtful dishes ensuring our wine pairing was also vegan. The cocktails and tea in the lounge is first rate. We always find the spa relaxing and love the fact you can walk through Bolton abbey into Wharfdale directly from the hotel without having to drive. We look forward to our next stay

Terrible overall service - Breakfast was unforgivable
We booked a night here and then moved on to Harrogate. The Reception staff were friendly and gave a warm greeting. The room was small and a little tired, but very clean and warm. Drinks in the Cocktail Lounge, whilst expensive, is an excellent environment and very cosy with the open fire. Dinner in the Brasserie was a let-down; over priced and average quality and service. Breakfast service was atrocious, we placed our order and received our coffee/ tea very quickly but the food delivery was unforgivable... The overall wait time was 1hr 40mins before we finally walked out having spoken to staff at-least three times... I had some food, but my wife left having only eaten toast.... The Manageress was apologetic, but this provided little comfort to what should be a standard service in a hotel of this standing.... We finally got our breakfast refunded, but this (in hindsight) wasn't;t sufficient as we didn't;t have breakfast anyway... We drove to Harrogate and ate their....

Great place, highly recommend!
4th visit for us, but extra special as I proposed to my now fiancée. Very well looked after throughout, impeccable service from staff. Accommodation perfect, food amazing, walks from the hotel are awesome. Loving the new upgrades to the spa too! This hotel does not have an uptight feeling created from an uncomfortably posh environment as you’d get at most places. This is a high end hotel with a homely feel, suits us and have always had a pleasant stay. Look forward to next time!

Amazing relaxing break in stunning surroundings
Have just spent three days at the Devonshire in one of their luxury suites to celebrate my birthday with the hubby and our little dog. Have to say it’s an amazing place felt relaxed as soon as we drove into the grounds of the place! What a beautiful hotel full of little luxury touches in both the suite we had as well as the main hotel areas. The place was so clean and with the log fires burning from afternoons through into the evening was so welcoming and homely. It’s the best dog friendly place we have ever stayed as dogs have access to all lounges and even one of the restaurants and they get a doggy welcome pack. My Alfie loved the grounds and walks around the estate and snuggling down next to the open fires in the evening😂 we also appreciated the outdoor doggy washing station they have made getting his paws clean before coming back in after muddy walks a dream. Have to say the service at this hotel is outstanding the staff were all lovely nothing was too much trouble for them and the way they run service is at a very high standard indeed. Now onto the food well what can I say it was amazing we didn’t have a single meal or snack that we didn’t like. Quality of the food outstanding cooked to perfection and presented beautifully ! This was the best hotel stay I have had in quite a while I enjoyed it even more than the ritz and that’s saying something. Had the best birthday this place really is the whole package stunning scenery and walks, exceptional staff , cosy yet luxurious interior and dog friendly. They have deffo got this place right would recommend it to anyone and we will definitely be going back there. Thankyou for an amazing birthday stay x
