Newburgh Priory is a house near Coxwold, North Yorkshire, England. Originally an Augustinian priory, it was founded in 1145 and became a family home following the dissolution of the priory in 1538. The 40 acres of grounds contain a water garden, walled garden, topiary yews and woodland walks.

The house was once the home of the Bellasis family and the seat of the Earls of Fauconberg until the death of Lady Charlotte when the property passed to the eldest son of her sister, Sir George Wombwell, 3rd Baronet. It is now the home of Mr & Mrs S. Wombwell (Mr Wombwell is a son of the seventh Baronet) and their children.
