A Look at the back door

 Middlethorpe Hall is a favourite venue for Yorkshire Life events. It is a country house set in 20 acres of gardens and parkland. It was built in 1699 and once the home of the diarist Lady Mary Wortley Montague. After a period of neglect, Middlethorpe Hall was bought and restored by Historic House Hotels who also own Hartwell House, Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, and Bodysgallen Hall, North Wales. The house today is decorated with antiques and fine pictures carefully chosen to match the period of the house. The gardens and parkland have also been restored and include ha ha’s, a white garden, a walled garden, a small lake and some very beautiful specimen trees.
