The Devonshire Arms Hotel & Spa

Two Night Conservation Retreat

11th - 13th June 2024

Reconnect with nature and experience the beauty of wildlife in the Yorkshire Dales.

Our two-night Conservation Escape takes you on a journey of discovery, immersing you in the wonders of wildlife across the Bolton Abbey Estate. From a Curlew Moorland Safari to an evening foraging walk and workshop, we’ve created an itinerary of activities that offer intimate encounters with the flora and fauna across the estate.

Throughout your stay, you’ll savour the finest locally sourced dishes that celebrate the flavours of the season such as a tasting supper in the Burlington Restaurant and a gourmet picnic to enjoy outdoors.

Please note that this package is only available on the 11th – 13th June. We’ve designed the retreat to be as immersive as possible, so we therefore only have 12 spaces available.

DAY 1:
