Marske Hall and its grounds are on the market for £2.5m. THE future of a unique historic house remains uncertain after a heritage enthusiast’s scheme to transform it into an exclusive wedding venue and aparthotel was roundly rejected amid concerns it would irreversibly harm the listed buildings and shatter the tranquillity of a Yorkshire Dales village. Developer Ian Morton said after spending a year on the first scheme to attempt to ensure the long-term viability of the Georgian Marske Hall estate since the Second World he was “devastated” and had been left with “no positive direction” by the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority’s dismissal his proposal.
