About our Country
House
Marton
Grange, a Grade II listed former farmhouse, is believed to have
been built in the early part of the 19th century and was linked
to the local Sewerby Estate. The house has been carefully and
tenderly renovated to exacting standards to make it both a
stylish, comfortable destination, but more importantly, a home
from home. We have created a warm, friendly atmosphere augmented
by family photographs, antiques and paintings. We estimate that
half of our guests have already stayed with us at least once
before, and their comments in the guest book are testimony to
the success and comfort provided by Marton Grange. We are proud
to hold the maximum 5 star rating from the AA and attained the
Le Routiers Bed & Breakfast of the North award in 2005. The
Guardian newspaper has described Marton Grange as “an oasis in a
desert“.
Marton Grange has eleven bedrooms, all of which have en-suite
facilities with showers. There are three ground floor rooms and
a lift provides easy access to the remaining rooms on the first
floor. The rooms are graded as either Premier Rooms or Classic
Rooms. The Premier Rooms consist of two twin rooms and five
double rooms (three of which have king-size beds). These are
located in the older part of the house and are usually larger
rooms furnished to a high specification, with some overlooking
the gardens. We have four Classic Rooms (two twin and two double
rooms) located in the newer annex. Guests who wish to bring
their dogs will be welcome in either of the two ground floor
Classic Rooms. The ground floor Premier twin room has also been
classified as suitable for disabled persons who can still walk
but need grab rails for the toilet, shower or washbasin. The
shower is not walk in and has a small step.
Guests are welcome to relax in the comfort of our Lounge, Sun
Room or Conservatory. A selection of books, magazines and
newspapers are available for your enjoyment.
There are nearly two acres of garden and paddock to walk or sit
in with a lovely pond to relax by. We actively encourage
wildlife with bird feeders and have recorded 40 different
species of birds (including Greater Spotted Woodpeckers, Tree
Sparrows and Sparrow Hawks), hares, rabbits, foxes, ducks and
moorhens.
There is a large, private, off road car park which is not
visible from the road.
