Wentbridge House Hotel

Wentbridge House has a fascinating history. The main building is Georgian and dates from 1700, this is shown on a stone set in to the wall in the rear of the Cocktail Bar. The Hotel is set in 20 acres of gardens and grounds in the village of Wentbridge, West Yorkshire which is a nature conservation area. Fronted by the old A1 road, (now The Great North Road) Wentbridge House was formally the home of the Leatham Family, whose daughter, Lorna, married Sir Avery Gascoigne, one time British Ambassador to Russia. The Leatham family are well remembered in nearby Pontefract by their association with Barclays Bank - the branch in Pontefract displays a plaque to that effect.The Leatham family’s generosity to the area is also marked by the Leatham Ward in Pontefract General Infirmiary. It was later the home of Colonel George Lyon, MC, MBE of Harkers Shipbuilders, Knottingley. During the Second World War, the house was used as the local headquarters of the British Army. In 1955, Wentbridge House was purchased by Mr. Edward T. Robinson, Jeweller of Sunderland and Doncaster, with a view to its conversion into an hotel. In 1960, with the assistance of his wife and a professional team of staff, this ambition was achieved and an excellent reputation for the hotel commenced to become established. Following the death of Mr. Robinson in 1967, the business was continued by his widow, later to become Mrs. K. C. Dupuy. Wentbridge House was sold to the Select Group of hotels in 1987 and subsequently purchased by the current owners, Page Holdings in 1993. It has been the intention, since this time, to maintain and build upon the superb reputation of Wentbridge House. The hotel now has 41 individually designed and decorated bedrooms, 2 AA Rosette fine dining Restaurant, stylish and contemporary Brasserie and elegant function rooms for up to 130 guests.
