About Red House Estate
Steeped in history, the fascinating Red House Estate dates back to the 11th century and played a key role in the English Civil War as a Royalist bastion (indeed, the famous Battle of Marston Moor took place just a few miles away).
History buffs and lovers of the great outdoors alike can enjoy a very special short (or extended!) break at this traditional working estate that stretches across 70 acres of North Yorkshire’s stunning scenery. All kinds of amazing flora and fauna abound in the woodlands, fields and sky, and footpaths and bridleways wend around the River Ouse, leading all the way to York. You might wish to seek out the ancient ‘Adam and Eve’ oak trees, explore the beautifully restored 16th-century chapel, or simply splash around in the outdoor pool and play croquet in front of Red House – formerly a prestigious preparatory school.
The Gordon family, owners of the estate, live on site and can guarantee that guests in Prince Rupert House, Garden House, and Signal Cottage will experience a unique and memorable holiday, at any time of year.
