  • Do you have ground floor bedrooms or access to bedrooms on upper floors via a lift?

    I'm afraid not. The only ground floor rooms available locally are The Blue Lion, The Wensleydale Heifer and The Saddle Room. None in Middleham itself. The nearest lifts are probably Catterick.

and child friendly. Our refurbished rooms aren’t just a place to sleep, but a place to enjoy and indulge yourself. Roll top baths, vaulted ceilings, freestanding copper baths, stunning bathroom fittings, walk in showers, fluffy towels and bathrobes, Cole and Son toiletries are just some of the features we’ve meticulously chosen with the help from a local architect and interior design company. You have full use of the guest drawing room overlooking Middleham Castle, home to King Richard III dating back 1000 years. Put your feet up, choose from a bookcase of books, take in a film or put on some music. You can sit and enjoy our garden and courtyard at the back of The Priory through the wrought iron gates.

Chris and Sarah moved to Middleham in May 2012. we wanted to establish an exceptional base for exploring the abundance that are the Yorkshire Dales. Our first project was to create a bed and breakfast guest house that we would stay at. We wanted to make the most of The Priory's warmth with an informal hospitality in accommodation of the very highest standard.

Middleham is a most unusual place with a colourful history, a thriving horse-racing community and is set amidst the breathtaking beauty of the Wensleydale countryside with remote farms, beautiful little villages and heather covered grouse moors. Perfect for walking, cycling or just sightseeing and a favourite haunt of many artists! The art of training thoroughbreds has survived for more than two centuries at Middleham, thanks mainly to the excellent facilities that have been developed on the local moorland that surround the town. Middleham has established itself as one of the best training centers in the country, having had over 400 winners each year for the past 38 years, Middleham Trainers produce an average of almost a winner every single day of the year. With its extensive Grass, All weather gallops and Therapy Centre, and is one of the most picturesque towns in the North of England with panoramic views of the Dales. Hence the abundance of good quality pubs, restaurants and hotels which all add up to a most enjoyable place to spend a weekend. Middleham also has 10 racecourses within an hours reach.
