Coming to Tankersley Manor is a little like stepping back in
time. Not because we’re behind the times, or old fashioned, we’re
far from it. But because we’ve tried very hard to capture the
essence of a simpler time, before deadlines and overtime and the
non-stop go go go of society.Amidst our York stone walls and wooded grounds, the pressures of
life recede, the hours seem to tick by a little slower, shoulders
relax down and time can be savoured.The setting certainly helps; Tankersley Manor began life as a
17th century manor house that surpasses itself on the
quaintness and charm front, with its stone windowsills and original
oak beams. Our award winning grounds are the epitome of a
countryside idyll and the spectacular scenery of the Peaks and the
Dales that waits on the doorstep is equally stunning. Our rooms are
little havens of loveliness tucked into the original manor and a
sensitively designed extension.But the thing that really takes you out of the day to day and
puts you in a different time zone is our hospitality; something
Yorkshire folk are very proud of (as well as those we’ve adopted
from other counties and countries). Our laid back culture and
welcoming attitude have a very calming effect, leaving you relaxed,
full of smiles and ready to slow down and squeeze the most out of
every minute here. If that doesn’t do it, then a trip to our spa
certainly will. We just hope that, by slowing you down, we can give
you the time of your life.
