The Feversham Arms Hotel & Verbena Spa

North Yorkshire, United Kingdom

Twenty minutes from York, the quaint and castle-toting North Yorkshire village of Helmsley is host to this homely Victorian-built boutique hotel, where guests go to hide away from urban hubbub, ramble the majestic moors, or ensconce themselves for shooting season. Whatever the reason for your stay, The Feversham Arms Hotel & Verbena Spa is a rustic retreat that promises an irresistible combo of cosseting, duck-down-pillowed cosiness inside and wild, wuthering moorland out.

Food and drink at The Feversham Arms Hotel & Verbena Spa

• Hotel restaurant

  The hotel’s restaurant is a maroon-walled, sky-lit eatery serving a Modern British menu that draws heavily from local ingredients – rich Yorkshire game and tasty North Sea fish appear in abundance. Talented chef Chris Staines notched up a Michelin star in a previous (culinary) life, so expect great things.

   

• Dress code Squires and sportsmen.
• Top table The fact that table 4 is shielded from the rest of the room by a pillar makes it the most romantic dining spot.
• Last orders Dinner is served from 7pm to 9.30pm in the restaurant.
• Room service Snacks can be delivered to your door all day until 9.30pm.
• Hotel bar

  Feversham is blessed with a brace of bars: one in the front lounge; one in the snug to the rear. Relaxing and quiet, they’re the perfect places to plant yourself and peruse the weekend papers.
