The Coniston Hotel & Spa

The Perfect Rural Escape...

Welcome to the Award Winning Coniston Hotel

Set in 1400 acres of beautiful Yorkshire Dales countryside- the perfect location for business or pleasure...

The Coniston Hotel forms part of the Coniston Estate, which has been home to the Bannister family since the late 1960s.  The estate comprises the magnificent Coniston Hall, The Coniston Hotel, Spa, 4x4 centre, Coniston Shooting Ground, Falconry Centre and much more.

After the Bannister's bought the estate they became aware of the need to diversify into areas other than farming.  They decided to convert one of the outlying barns in to a farm shop which sold produce from the estate including homemade preserves and fish.  Mrs Bannister and her late son, Tom were responsible for the farm shop and as today, the whole family was very involved in the every aspect of running the business. Being located on the A65 trunk road to the Lakes meant that the farm shop very quickly gathered a strong customer base and a tearoom was added to meet growing demand.  More expansion came when the tearoom was converted to a restaurant and then again when the first bedrooms were added and the farm shop made the transition to hotel.

The business has enjoyed steady growth over the years.  In 2011 a further 22 bedrooms were added, many with wonderful views over the lake and grounds.  The Coniston Hotel is now a thriving 71 bedroom hotel which has 5 meeting rooms, Macleod’s, a fantastic traditional restaurant, the Huntsman’s Lodge which serves food all day, and many other activities for guests to enjoy.  The hotel has won many different industry awards over the past few years.  At the heart of everything are family values.  Mr and Mrs Bannister can be seen out and about the hotel and estate almost every day, ensuring the guest is being well looked after. A key factor in the success of the Coniston hotel is that all business decisions are very much centred on the guests and their needs.
