The Swinton Estate is a large privately owned estate in North Yorkshire, England. It comprises some 20,000 acres (8,100 ha) of countryside in the Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, extending 10 miles (16 km) west from the River Ure near Masham.[1] The estate includes Swinton Park, the seat of the Danby family and (from 1882) of the Cunliffe-Lister family (the Earls of Swinton), an English country house in Swinton near Masham. It is set in 200 acres (81 ha) of parkland, lakes and gardens. The house is a Grade II* listed building,[2] and now operates as the 42-bedroom Swinton Park Hotel.

The Cunliffe-Lister family still own the house but the seat of the Earl of Swinton is now at Dykes Hill House, also located near Masham.[3]

Beyond the parkland surrounding the house, the estate comprises farmland and large areas of grouse moor in and around the valley of the River Burn.
