About this property

Finest Retreats | Hickleton Hall Estate

Stay in the Grade II listed Georgian stately hall, situated in picturesque grounds and gardens within the village of Hickleton, South Yorkshire.

The original hall built in 1748 has been previously used as headquarters in the Second World War, before being converted to a girl’s boarding school in the later 1940s, and most recently has been undergoing extensive refurbishment to be restored to its former glory. Finest Retreats are pleased to offer a fantastic spacious apartment within Hickleton Hall for up to nine guests, with access to part of the 17 acres of gardens and woodland.

Transport back in time when you enter the sweeping driveway and are met by the eye-catching period property. With parking for multiple vehicles, enter via your own private entrance on the ground floor, where the beauty of the historic building continues in the elegant chapel bedroom, with gorgeous sky views through the glass ceiling providing generous natural light. Why not take a moment to discover its historical past with beautiful paintings and tapestries and uncover its and bygone era.

With steps down to the lower ground floor, find two king size bedrooms and separate bathroom with shower. Along the wide-open corridor, a diner/kitchenette with microwave, kettle, and coffee machine.

Recently opened for June 2023, a new lounge/games room with piano, pool table, smart TV and Wi-Fi – an ideal room for family get togethers and making memories. Along with the new fourth bedroom, including a king size four poster bed and period furniture.

Previously featured as a filming location for many TV programmes and paranormal documentaries, it’s a famous piece of Doncaster History. For more information or bookings please contact Finest Retreats!

Please be aware when booking, security is always available on site to monitor the grounds; however, they will not require access to the apartment during your stay.

Fabulously large and grand property with huge outdoor space for the pups to run around in and animal
Fabulously large and grand property with huge outdoor space for the pups to run around in and animal spotting. I’d recommend you read the reviews before booking - they’re pretty accurate. It’s a wonderfully unusual space but the fridge is very small so plan accordingly and check the facilities in case you were expecting a full kitchen.

Interesting stay
Amazing building and grounds, perfect location for our needs. Light levels difficult, needs extra lights in kitchen and dining area.Kitchen not great for long stays, we took a hob, lack of plug sockets. Only one bathroom, not the problem we anticipated, only 5 of us, but might be an issue if 9 staying. Interesting pictures and artefacts made the stay memorable!

Need to get the basics right!
We throughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful hall but we’re disappointed by the lack of basis that were provided. Prior to arrival we were aware that there was only a microwave and no dishwasher- what we didn’t expect was that there would be no T towel to dry the pots nor a cloth to wipe the surfaces! We had to dry our washing up with a towel and ration the quarter of a paper towel roll we were provided with to last all weekend. We also had to ration the one toilet roll we were provided with! No tea pot so had to make up to 8 individual cups of tea, and the low lighting in the kitchen made food prep almost impossible! The house and grounds are lovely but for something labelled as a Finest Retreat we really felt as though significant corners had been cut.

Amazing place to stay
Beautiful historic building that has maintained the original character during renovation with appropriate decor, furniture and fittings, which is lovely to enjoy and a rarity in this modern day of hacking up period properties for profit.
Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023
