Our Story

We’re guided by where things begin – honest ingredients, local hands and hospitality that stays true to its roots. We’re an open book – and we’d love nothing more than to share our story.

Where we began

Our chairman, Chris Blundell, started our collection with The Carpenters Arms in 2009. That single step eventually paved the way to our collection of eight venues in North Yorkshire. From heart-of-village inns to boutique hotels and restaurants, we’re here to help you relax in a way you’ll never forget.

Over the last 15 years, we’ve received both national and local recognition for hospitality and culinary excellence. This quality runs through our family-run operation, which strives for quality food and service, great value and genuine care for every guest.

Hospitality at its finest

We’re a team of happy, passionate folk. From the front-of-house greeting you with a smile to the chefs serving the finest seasonal menus, making people happy is at the heart of what we do. 

Our authenticity permeates every aspect of our operation, inspiring our people to share the same passion for excellence. Through the Provenance Academy, we nurture our operational family to become the next generation of hospitality professionals. 

Making the most of each season

Mount St. John is our very own kitchen garden, nestled in the Hambleton Hills of Felixkirk. Designed by Tom Stuart-Smith, an award-winning landscape architect, this creative masterpiece keeps our kitchens supplied with the freshest produce all year round.

Our chefs and gardeners work with the seasons, carefully selecting the right produce to craft our award-winning menus.
