Skelwith Leisure, owners of the Raithwaite Estate near Whitby, has announced the opening of The Keep at Raithwaite, the latest addition to the Estate’s accommodation options.Set within 100 acres of beautiful countryside on the edge of the North Yorkshire Moors National Park, the 28 bedroom Keep offers guests the same luxury and splendour as the main Hall in some of the country’s most awe inspiring surroundings.
The Keep includes the Hunters Bar and Restaurant, meeting rooms, outside patio areas and panoramic views of the woodland on the Estate.
Commenting Paul Ellis, Managing Director of Skelwith Leisure, said:
“Everyone is delighted that The Keep is now open, not only is it a fantastic addition to the Estate, but further signals our commitment to the local area.
“We have invested heavily in the estate to date and will continue to do so. We’ve started work on our new eco-lodges and, along with The Keep, these complement the original Hall and spa.
“The Estate now encompasses a wide range of accommodation options, attracting visitors from across the country and beyond, providing a significant boost to the local economy. The Estate is a significant employer within Whitby and The Keep will allow us to provide further employment and training opportunities.”
As well as being an excellent accommodation option The Keep is also a great location for any business or corporate event, boasting its own conferencing facilities, state of the art IT system and access to fantastic outside spaces, ideal for team building.
Work on the remaining cottages will begin later this year, along with a new access road to access part of the site.
