Reviews for The Devonshire Arms Hotel & Spa
Fabulous spa with beautiful surroundings
Always had fabulous spa days at the Devonshire with a lovely light lunch & wow treatments are fab. Me & my sister always love coming here & always say afterwards what a lovely relaxing day we’ve had. The staff are very friendly & attentive. As I live local & had the day off from work thought I would book in for a treatment only. Had a lovely coffee to start with, then I had the Temple Spa Drift Away Treatment!!! Absolutely amazing, thank you Ellie, I left feeling so relaxed & chilled. Will definitely be back soon

Ideal for a relaxing weekend.
We've been returning here for a number of years and each time we are always made welcome. The hotel has a friendly warm atmosphere and usually has a roaring fire meeting us in the reception. Comfortable, clean rooms with tea and coffee making facilities are just what is needed after a day walking in Yorkshire or hit the Spa for a much needed sauna or swim. On the Dales Way and just a short walk to Bolton Abbey. Make sure you find out when Jane is doing a walking tour of the Hotel and surrounding Estate. We really enjoyed an interesting talk on the history of the Hotel and Estate, ideal for all.

A YORKSHIRE JEWEL
People had recommended the Devonshire Arms to us in the past but we hadn't been before until our friends asked us to join them to celebrate their 70 birthdays. Bolton Abbey is stunning, and so is the Devonshire Arms, overlooking acres of green Yorkshire pasture, dotted with new born lambs. The reception staff were very helpful and explained the other facilities available (Spa and Brasserie restaurant). The rooms were lovely, with great views. We were givien special parking passes for our cars as the area is always busy with walkers, cyclists etc. After drinks in the cosy bar area (dogs are welcome) we had a delicious dinner in the Brasserie. The breakfast menu was extensive, and the 'full English' was enormous. We will definitely go again.

Poor afternoon tea experience
We visited the Devonshire Arms for afternoon tea. It was meant to be a treat for a special birthday. The service was terrible. It was a real shame as the food was lovely but the atmosphere and lack of service let it down. I gave feedback to give the mangement the opportunity to respond but heard nothing. Very disappointing for what is supposed to be a premium afternoon tea experience.

Sinead made our visit even more special.
We cannot wait to return, we had lunch and a leisurely walk around the abbey. Such a perfect day and a special thank you to Sinead for all her help with my flat battery.
