Property information

Broughton Craggs Hotel was originally built as a Gentleman's residence in 1858 and later converted to a hotel in 1975. The Horton family have owned the hotel since the Spring of 2006 and during this period it has been through considerable refurbishment keeping the character of the beautiful building yet extending the services the family run hotel has to offer. Being in the hospitality business for over 20 years means the Horton family understand and value the needs of their customers.
