Behold, the regal Crathorne Hall. From chandeliers to four-posters to vaulted-ceilinged hallways, it’s the place to live out your titular fantasies.

Sitting beside the Leven Valley in North Yorkshire, Crathorne Hall Hotel is swaddled in picture-perfect countryside. Just on the edge of the Yorkshire Moors and a half-hour drive from the coast, Crathorne Hall is a 100-year-old stately home that has played host to royalty, politicians and socialites, and inside it’s all high ceilings, ornate cornicing and elegant period furniture. Today, it’s part of the Handpicked Hotels brand, a glamorous base to explore some of the UK’s most beautiful countryside.

Rooms are individually, thoughtfully designed with feature beds, plush couches and even the odd balcony. The Leven Restaurant offers a variety of contemporary and classic dishes using the best of what the region produces from Yorkshire Dales’ wood pigeon to local ham and cheeses via Harrogate.

The countryside here is dreamy.  Walk the Cleveland Way, summit Roseberry Topping  or drive half an hour to the stunning Aysgarth Falls. The Yorkshire coastline is home to some of the most beautiful cliffs and shores in the country, and the charming seaside town of Saltburn is well worth a visit too.
