A Grassington venue is in the running to win a regional business award.

Grassington House Hotel is a finalist in the Food and Drink Establishments category at the Yorkshire and Humberside Family Business Awards - and a spokesperson said the hotel was "delighted" by the news.

Owner Sue Rudden added: "Being recognised as finalists is a testament to the passion and dedication of our incredible team.

"For us, it’s about more than just exceptional service; it’s about creating an experience that captures the heart of the Yorkshire Dales and welcoming each guest as an extension of our family."

The hotel, which occupies a Georgian building, features a restaurant that has already earned multiple awards - including two AA rosettes and a VisitBritain Gold Award.

Nine "individually designed" rooms are counted in the hotel in all, with features ranging from ornate roll top baths to placid Grassington village square views.

Private dining and an outdoor terrace are also available to guests.

Grassington House Hotel supports charities and community events, including through fundraisers for Sue Ryder Manorlands Hospice, in Oxenhope.

The Yorkshire & Humberside Family Business Awards 2024 will take place at the Royal Armouries, in Leeds, on November 22.
