Brief History

Shrigley Hall Hotel has only been a hotel since 1989, when it was lovingly converted into the stylish manor house hotel it is today. In 1929, Shrigley Hall, along with 262 acres of land, was sold to the Salesians order. At first, they built a church, which has now been renovated and converted into the Tilden Suite, and then they converted the Hall into a missionary college for boys. It stayed that way until 1989 when it was converted into a hotel and country club.
