For those who fancy a little extra space; available for short breaks and holidays in England’s smallest but mightiest county. Positioned just a stone’s throw from The Barnsdale, so if you find yourself craving a night away from the stove, The 1760 Brasserie is just a stroll away…
The magic of Tolethorpe is something special which we highly recommend you experience for yourselves. Enjoy a picnic in the beautiful grounds in front of Tolethorpe Hall, then take your seat in the covered auditorium, and see an open-air stage like no other, with amateur productions from the extremely talented Stamford Shakespeare Company.
