Guest rooms are converted original Pullman carriages with en suite bathrooms and come fitted with hospitality trays, TVs and hairdryers.

The restaurant offers an extensive food and wine menu, while the spacious conservatory allows guests to sit and enjoy the panoramic views of the open Yorkshire countryside.
