Braithwaite Hall is a working hill farm in the lower reaches of Coverdale, which borders the more famous Wensleydale; the farm has a large flock of Swaledale sheep and a beef cattle herd.
Located above the hall on Braithwaite hill is an Iron-age fort, whose remains can still be seen.
The earliest reference to the house is in 1301, when listed as a grange to Jervaulx Abbey; the Hall was also owned for a while by the City of London during the 17 century.
Re-modelled in 1667, the hall boasts a splendid oak panelled drawing room with large a open fireplace, where guests can watch TV or just sit and relax and take in the ambiance.
Braithwaite Hall is ideally situated for walking and exploring the Dales with several footpaths going through the farm.
A full farmhouse breakfast is served each morning in the dining room, including homemade bread & preserves, our own eggs and locally sourced sausages bacon & black pudding, fresh fruits cereal and yoghurts. Special diets can be catered for upon request.
