We stayed at the Holbeck Ghyll on the 25th of May which was an extremely hot day. We had driven for some 6 hours and were hot and tired when we arrived. The hotel looked lovely, the view stunning and the welcome was cordial. We were then shown to our double room which on first glance seemed pleasant enough but...

We booked the Suite with lake view for 2 nights and on arrival the Hotel and suite was perfect. Unfortunately there was no hot water one afternoon and had to have cold showers, there was no wifi as promised and the Hot tub on our balcony was not Hot - hence we could not use it and completely ruined our...

We booked the Holbeck Ghyll based on the reviews on here for our honeymoon and weren't disappointed. We stayed for 3 nights in the miss potter suite and it was incredible. The staff were very attentive and really made our stay. The setting was gorgeous and views beautiful. The main reason we booked it was for the food and the...

From the moment we approached Holbeck Ghyll to consider it as a wedding venue, we knew it was perfect for our special day. The views from every aspect were fantastic. We were welcomed in by Andrew McPherson who talked us through every aspect of our plans. The size of the hotel was perfect for our wedding party, and we loved...

We stayed 2 nights, weekend visit without kids, for adult luxury and walking (and one of the nights was free, as I won it in a competition, but not with the hotel itself, so I feel free to review without prejudice). We were upgraded and had a lake view room - the Tower Room, up steep stairs as the name...

Thank you for your kind review. I was over the moon to read that you enjoyed the food as much as you did. It is always good for our Kitchens morale to see that people do take a huge interest in what they are eating. My housekeeper is looking at all the kettles and their positionings and I have discuseed...

I have stayed here a few times over the last decade. Twice as a couple and more recently, I decided to travel on my own and take part in the organised photography weekend. As soon as I drove up on the Friday night, I reached Holbeck Ghyll and all the stresses of the week dissolved away. I was a little...

Just returned from an idyllic three-day stay at Holbeck Ghyll. Following our wedding, we wanted somewhere in the Lakes, near to my family, with good food and great views. Holbeck Ghyll ticked all these boxes and many more. As we were checking in, Masterchef's Greg Wallace was just settling his bill before his early-morning departure – a stirling restaurant recommendation?...

From booking to departure and everything in between, this hotel gets it right . The staff were friendly and helpful . The rooms generous, elegant and comfortable. The food was the best we have eaten in the UK and the setting like something out of a story book.
Thanks Louise, a great review and we are all very grateful. Hope to see you back soon.
With all good wishes

The Lake District claims to be the birthplace of the country house hotel. This is one of the finest I have stayed in anywhere in the world. To succeed in this market requires an attention to detail, an ability to exploit every advantage of the location and a willingness to change and upgrade. I believe Holbeck Ghyll does all of...

Holbeck Ghyll was host to my daughter's wedding. It proved to be the ideal choice.
I have stayed at many hotels around the world and can safely say that Holbeck Ghyll gave the best service I have experienced at any of them. My expectations were high and they comprehensively exceeded them.
The hotel's location, food and facilities are truly exceptional,...
