Our café, shop & gardens are now open for 2026 – the historic house re-opens Wednesday 18th March!
Thank you for your booking.
We look forward to welcoming you to Swarthmoor Hall.
If you have any queries or would like to discuss requirements, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
There’s much more to Swarthmoor Hall than our lovely self-catering accommodation.
We have a 15th century historic hall, home to Margaret Fell & George Fox, the mother and founder of Quakerism.
We have beautiful gardens and a meadow full of fruit bushes and trees and some very busy bees making our honey.
There’s a cosy cafe too, with a log burning fire and delicious cakes, and a little shop selling holiday essentials, gifts, cards and books!
Don’t know where we are? Here’s how to find us.
