Nidd Hall Overview

Records show that there was a house on the site of Nidd Hall at least 100 years before Elizabethan times and its oldest rooms, the cellars, date from this period. Yet Nidd Hall is perhaps best remembered for its 20th century history and the rumoured first fateful meeting between Edward VIII and Mrs Wallis Simpson.

Nidd’s Georgian serenity is fit for the most regal of encounters and it’s easy to imagine the lovers-to-be exploring this elegant Grade II listed stately home and its landscaped gardens.

Nidd Hall sits within 45 acres of Victorian and Edwardian parkland, sculpted lawns and stepped terraces, the perfect manicured foil to the nearby glories of the Yorkshire Dales.

Within 20 minutes you’ll be entranced by the medieval masterpiece of Fountains Abbey, while York, Bolton Abbey and Harewood House are all easy to find.
