The Grange Hotel has partnered with The Yorkshire Chauffeur Company to offer guests a sophisticated Discover Yorkshire Experience in a brand-new Range Rover Sport. Enjoy uninterrupted views over the dry-stone walls and hedges from the 4×4’s elevated position while being driven by knowledgeable local guides.
