Climb the servants’ staircase to our tower and learn about how the Hall has changed over the centuries, but how it has always been cared for and maintained by generations of custodians.

Facilities

Rudby Hall Hotel was originally built for 19th Century Royalty. The design by renowned architect Anthony Salvin ensured there were grand and opulent spaces to ‘show off’ the place to visitors, with all the necessary service infrastructure, to ensure Lady Amelia and Lord Falkland were suitably accommodated in line with their status. This design has endured through the centuries and now presents as a theatrical backdrop and stage for a wide range of activities, events and experiences. The high ceilings and wooden floors of the drawing room and library are perfect for all manner of events, from corporate away-days to fashion shows. The individually designed rooms and sumptuous bathrooms are each a superb backdrop for photo-shoots and filming. The grounds are secluded and replete with multiple environments including woodland, lawns and riverside locations. The modernised version of Rudby Hall Hotel has many other facilities that are perfect for events, from parking to Wi-Fi, an office, a bar, accessible toilet, a lift and a lounge for informal meetings and break-out sessions.

Reputation

Suze Chomo and Mark Booth are the husband-and-wife team behind the transformation of Rudby Hall into Rudby Hall Hotel. They were handed the keys in December 2024 and since then have worked tirelessly to develop the Hotel’s reputation for exceptional service, event hosting, accommodation and food. This effort has been reflected in amazing reviews and scores for the Hotel, from both domestic and international visitors.

Flexibility

Rudby Hall Hotel is a fine example of a building that can adapt quickly and flexibly to the needs of its inhabitants and customers. There is no long build or lead time required to transition from one event to another – in part due to the relatively compact size of the Hall itself (relative to a convention centre), the ease with which the spaces work for everyone and the infrastructure and flow of the house and its facilities. There are 2 function rooms that can be operated and served either independently or inter-dependently depending on the event. Their  menus can be constructed to fit the needs of your party and we can allow you to bring external caterers and entertainers as required.

Privacy

Ruby Hall Hotel can operate in various guises, including a completely ‘private’ mode where you have exclusive hire of the house and grounds for a few days. This is perfect for companies, families, special interest groups etc who may want to gather in a place where they have the free and unfettered run of the house and grounds. The Hall is naturally a private space with gated access, screening by trees and woodland and unobstructed views.
