History of the hotel
The Grinkle Estate belonged for centuries to the Conyers-Middleton family and its descendants. The “seat" of Grinkle was then an old Hall Mansion House. During the Industrial Revolution of the nineteenth century the North East of England saw many changes and Grinkle did not escape these. One of the great Industrialists of the time, Sir Charles Mark Palmer, whose influence on the area was enormous, was to bring great changes to Grinkle. In 1881 the old mansion of Grinkle was demolished and Alfred Waterhouse was commissioned to build a house befitting the wealthy, and now titled landowner, Sir Charles Palmer. Over the entrance porch the arms of the Palmer family can still be found.
Grinkle Park was converted into a hotel in 1947 and became a country retreat for many a weary traveller.
