In sharp contrast yet in perfect harmony with its rugged surroundings of North Yorkshire moors, The Feversham Arms Hotel & Verbena Spa offers an indulgent escape with all the pampering trimmings.

Quite eclectic in its designs drawing on the its past of a country pub, The Feversham Arms Hotel is a genius combination of the old and battered that gradually tips into the shiny and sleek.
In the public quarters you’ll find a reminder of the past in the form of well worn furniture accompanied by exposed stone walls while in the rooms you can look forward to a cosy atmosphere created with the help of flowery wallpaper and soft upholstering. The wet rooms on the other hand – be it your bathroom, the pool, or the spa – are definitely present in this century using plenty of glass, sharp geometrical shapes, and slate.
As for the spa, its heated outdoor pool, hot tub, and a decent list of treatments should help you rejuvenate from the work week or an exhausting ramble in the countryside.
Good to Know
On a busy weekend, the spa facilities can feel a little crowded.
While some may appreciate it, others might like to be aware that all rooms are dog friendly.
