The Ridge is a magical location set within the North Yorkshire Moors National Park. A well kept secret now waiting to be shared and experienced by guests to Ridge Hall

 'This is a hospital for the soul'

There has been a road along the Ridge since prehistoric times and Ridge Lane runs east to west from Staithes on the coast to Scaling on the moors. About 5 miles long the lane is probably one of the most stunning switchback roads in the country.

Ridge Hall dates mostly from the mid 1800's, when it was extensively remodelled to form the Summer House and later the Dower House for Grinkle Park - home of the Palmer family, great ship builders and industrialists of Tees-side.

There has been a settlement here for many centuries and the stone above the entrance to the medieval hall comes from an ancient hermitage on the moors and is in Attic Greek - 'This is a hospital for the soul'.
