The Devonshire Arms Hotel & Spa - Skipton

Beautiful place with outstanding food and the spa was a real treat. Rooms and surroundings are perfect and we thoroughly enjoyed the taster menu. We only had one criticism and that was the size of the wine pairings. The wine was matched perfectly and we thoroughly enjoyed it but the amount given for £69 per person (as we opted for the additional course) was tiny. Enjoyed several wine pairings previously but we found this to be the smallest yet. Other than that a perfect weekend treat.

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.

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
