Catfoss Hall has a history dating back over 700 years, and according to British History online, the chief house was mentioned in 1295. The Manor House is said to have been built by Mary, wife of John Constable, in 1659, before being demolished in 1815 when the outbuildings were converted into the current house.
Catfoss Hall is located in the East Riding of Yorkshire village of Sigglesthorne, in the hills of Holderness, approximately four miles east of the coastal town of Hornsea. The town is approximately 17 miles to the north east of Hull city centre.
Local equestrian centres include Bishop Burton College (14 miles), Cottingham Equestrian Centre (15 miles) and Port Royal Equestrian Centre (25 miles).
