United States of AmericaThe Holbeck Ghyll Country House Hotel and staff exceeded all our expectations from the moment we arrived. I had booked this hotel for my parents to celebrate a special occasion. They are still raving about the hotel, the incredible view, the beautiful room, the fantastic service, the very attentive staff. They will be telling all their friends back in America about their experience there and cannot wait to return and stay longer. I would like to give a special thanks to the Holbeck Ghyll staff for making this the most amazing hotel stay my parents have had anywhere. They absolutely loved it!

United Kingdomamazing views, ambience and setting. attentive and polite staff room was a great size and modern fittings but retaining the country lodge heritage. I will be back again and am able to confidently recommend this to someone without any apprehension
United States of AmericaAmazing building, beautiful views. The staff went above and beyond to help with any questions or concerns. They were extremely professional and welcoming and made us feel very at ease. We had our Springer with us who was equally as welcome and was given plenty of attention! Fantastic location, plenty of amazing walks on the doorstep and very close to Windermere and Ambleside. Breakfast was excellent, we are both veggie and there was plenty of options. The veggie full English was very good and there was loads of choice for the continental breakfast, can't fault it. The table was all set up for us and our dog and once again, we were all made to feel very welcome.
