About Crab Manor & The Crab and Lobster
Crab Manor occupies a Grade II listed eighteenth-century Georgian manor house in the village of Asenby, a few miles south of Thirsk, and has built a national reputation around its Crab and Lobster restaurant, which holds two AA Rosettes for its cooking. The hotel's eight bedrooms are each individually themed around a different global destination, giving the property a distinctly playful, boutique character rather than a conventional country-house feel.
Guests can dine in the restaurant whether or not they are staying overnight, and the grounds include terraces and a bar for drinks before or after dinner. The hotel is set up primarily for couples and special-occasion stays, including weddings and private events, and offers direct-booking perks such as a welcome drink and a price-match guarantee.
Asenby's rural setting, a short drive from Thirsk, Ripon and the A1(M), makes Crab Manor a practical base for exploring this stretch of North Yorkshire while still allowing a serious dinner without leaving the grounds.
