Spa Hotels
Hotel, rooftop spa, restaurants and golf at Follifoot, set in 300 acres of landscaped gardens and woodland near Harrogate.
Bookings are completed on Rudding Park’s own website.

Rudding Park is a family-owned hotel and resort at Follifoot, just outside Harrogate, set in 300 acres of landscaped gardens and woodland. Hotel rooms and suites sit alongside cottages and luxury lodges, so the estate works both as a base for visiting town and as a destination in its own right.
The spa includes rooftop hydrotherapy and thermal experiences, while the grounds offer gardens and a kitchen garden. Two golf courses and a TrackMan driving range broaden the options beyond a spa break or overnight stay. Spa access and individual experiences should be checked when booking rather than assumed to be included with every room.
Dining ranges from Clocktower Brasserie to Horto, where seasonal dishes take inspiration from Mediterranean flavours, and FIFTY TWO’s immersive dining experience in the kitchen garden. That mix makes Rudding Park worth considering for a spa day, a golf visit, a meal or a special occasion, as well as an overnight stay. Book accommodation, spa experiences and restaurant tables directly through the estate’s own booking pages.
