The Craiglands Story

A Hundred and Sixty‑Seven Years of Welcome.

Built in 1859 as a Victorian hydropathic retreat, Craiglands has stood watch over the heather of Ilkley Moor for one hundred and sixty‑seven years. The same stone, the same long views, the same idea: that a great hotel should feel less like a stay and more like an invitation.

Generations have arrived through our doors — for a quiet weekend, a wedding, a final supper before the train south. Each one folded into the building's long memory of warmth.

We are the keepers of a Yorkshire welcome — measured in fires lit, kettles set, doors held open.

Today, sixty‑three bedrooms across four categories sit alongside Brasserie1, a restaurant rooted in modern British cooking and the produce of the Dales beyond our windows.

The Brasserie

Cooking, with the seasons.

Brasserie1 is the kind of restaurant Yorkshire deserves — confident without being precious, generous without being lazy. Our menu changes with what arrives at the back door: lamb from the Dales, fish landed at Whitby, vegetables from a handful of growers within an hour's drive.

Open seven days for breakfast, lunch and dinner — to residents, neighbours, and anyone hungry enough to find us.

Good cooking is patience and a hot pan. We're well‑stocked on both.

Your Day, Your Way

From a quiet ceremony to five hundred at supper.

Six event spaces of every shape and a wedding planner who treats your day like the only one in the diary. Whatever the size, the season or the shape of your love story — we have the room, and the patience, to host it.

Ceremony
i.

The Ceremony

Vows beneath original Victorian plasterwork, with light pouring through south‑facing sashes. Licensed for civil ceremonies of up to two hundred guests, with smaller intimate options for closer affairs.

Reception
ii.

The Reception

Long tables, candlelight and a kitchen that has been quietly preparing for this all year. Sit‑down dinners for forty, banquets for five hundred, and everything between.

Details
iii.

The Details

The flowers, the cake, the moment your father can't quite manage his speech. Our wedding planner handles every thread — so by the morning of, the only thing you're left to do is arrive.
