Winter Networking Event at Aldwark Manor Estate

We are delighted to announce our Winter Networking Event at Aldwark Manor Estate, Yorkshire.

 About the Hotel

The Aldwark Manor Estate sits in 210 acres of beautiful countryside between Harrogate and York and has an 18 hole golf course. It can be easily accessed by the A1M.

The hotel boasts a fascinating history. Situated in a dedicated conservation area of North Yorkshire, beside the river and approximately 14 miles from York. Aldwark is mentioned in the Doomsday book and has links to William the Conquerors direct descendants, for whom the present manor house was built in 1865.

During the Second World War, the estate was requisitioned by the Home Office to house the Canadian Air Force and it was during this time that Guy Gibson spent time at Aldwark planning the famous Dam-busters raid.

After the war, the house was sold to the County Council, who used it briefly as a school for young offenders before selling it for development into a hotel and golf course in 1978.

The estate boasts 37 acres of land including 63 types of tree. It was bought by Marstons Brewery in 2002 and underwent progressive improvements. After changing hands in 2006 and then several times since, it was finally bought by a local family business, Depho Estates Ltd in spring 2019 and underwent a multi-million pound sympathetic refurbishment program. Following a further £15 million pound transformation, the golf course has undergone extensive redevelopment, whilst the spa is poised for a grand re-opening this year following major upgrades, with more still to come in early 2026.

We are delighted to be hosting our Winter event at this stunning estate.
