Holbeck Ghyll Windermere Reviews from The Last Year
Stay here
If you want relaxation and friendly staff that can’t do enough for you come here. When you arrive and turn into the car park you go wow what a view then you enter this beautiful building and the staff make you feel at home. A tour will take you past stained glass windows and up creaky stairs to your well appointed room with another view over lake Windermere. Food is excellent and the restaurant menu describes exactly what you are ordering which is then cooked to perfection. The lounge area is friendly and very cosy for interchange with other guests. Breakfast is equally as good as the evening meal. They are not part of a large chain of hotels so if you want a homely stay whilst being looked after don’t look anywhere else. A big thanks to Rowan Sarah and Dan
Wow
Wow is the best way to describe this gem of a find. Stayed here to celebrate my mums 60th and from start to finish the staff couldn't do enough for us. Room was spot on number 3 and 23. Breakfast was superb, staff are super friendly, cleaner was very good and very friendly, they couldn't do enough to ensure our room was perfect. Beds amaIngly comfortable, pillows duck feather and dreamy. Grounds of this hotel are beautiful and the view, well, this is absolutely spectacular. There is nothing to complain about. If your looking for a real lake district stay, this is deffinately a place to visit. I will absolutely be returning here. Thank you all so much
ok ish
was really looking forward to this visit. However it is not what it use to be is my guess. Staff mostly helpful. They shared my data before arrival they promised to speak to me when i arrived and they did not. Suit was nice a bit grubby on the carpets and the bathroom not the cleanest. Trying to sleep past 5am was impossible due to the heating. would i stay again. no and was it value for money. no where near.
Lovely family Easter weekend at Holbeck Ghyll. Recommend wholeheartedly.
Rooms were very spacious and clean, and views over Windermere and the surrounding hills were simply stunning. Food was very good, and service from all the staff was friendly and very attentive. Would definitely look to stay here again if visiting the Lake District.
Highly recommend! 10/10!
Loved our stay here! Tom at the desk was welcoming and really helpful. He kindly carried our bags to the room. Room felt more like a flat and had the best views. I loved the atmosphere of the hotel and the quirks. Breakfast was lush! Lots to choose from, I had avocado and eggs on sourdough and my friend had waffles, bacon and maple syrup.
Most cozy and beautiful hotel in Windermere
We returned for a second time this Easter and had the loveliest stay (again!) The house is cozy, well maintained, classic and comfortable. We stayed in Room 4 which was much larger than expected and had beautiful views overlooking the lake - not to mention the comfiest bed ever! We had breakfast at the hotel every morning and 2 incredible dinners + an afternoon tea. The food was perfect, the dining room is amazing with a warm log fire in the bar to set the mood. The staff was so attentive and personable, it felt like we were at a family home. I don’t think we would want to stay anywhere else in Windermere!
A fantastic stay, 5 star !
Just returned from another visit to the fabulous HG. We just love coming here, everything about it is just so relaxing, comfortable and most of all friendly. Can’t speak highly enough of the staff and their attention to detail. Met with manager Tom who is such a hard working guy who has a smile and a chat for everyone. Rowan & Emma are so helpful and very professional at their job. But to be honest everyone at Holbeck Ghyll should be proud of their establishment. We don’t usually return to places as there is so much choice available but this place just keeps pulling us back. Every need is catered for and you’re made to feel appreciated. Can’t wait to return again for another wonderful break. Thanks Mr & Mrs A Jack.
Exemplary service, divine food and immaculate rooms - what more could you want?
All the staff were incredibly friendly and went the extra-mile to make sure we enjoyed our stay. The room and facilities were immaculate and the food was exquisite. Thank you very much to Tom and the team. We would certainly go back again and would recommend it to anyone who is visiting Windermere.
Exceptional service
Absolutely amazing 2 nights here, the staff are all so welcoming and nothing is too much trouble. The place is stunning with views overlooking lake Windermere. Our suite was spotlessly clean and the bed incredibly comfortable. The private balcony was perfect to relax and enjoy the view. The food was Michelin star worthy. Dinner and breakfast were delicious and presented beautifully. I couldn’t find anything that could have been better. It was a perfect relaxing break that we can’t wait to visit again. Tom and his team give the best customer service unrivalled in any other hotel we have stayed in. Holbeck Ghyll is a great place to stay, and we definitely recommend it.
A Fabulous Hotel with a heart
We have just returned from a 3 night break at this fabulous hotel and can only give high praise for our experience. Our room ( Lord Lonsdale Suite) was stunning with views from the balcony to match. Very spacious room and huge opulent bathroom, all with mod cons and period decor. The hotel itself is gorgeous with lovely nooks and crannies to relax with log fires and cosy ambience. The evening meal was excellent as were the breakfasts, they obviously have a very good chef. But what really makes this hotel so special is the Manager Tom and his excellent team. A special mention for Rowan & Sarah for looking after us so well. Tom is a great host and Manager and makes you feel like part of the family. I’m sure he will be successful in his career. We will be back for sure.
Fantastic two nights stay.
We have just returned from two nights stay at Holbeck Ghyll and don't have anything but praise for the venue or staff. The house itself was beautifully presented and very clean. Our room was likewise lovely and clean with everything you require. The food was excellent at both breakfast and evening meal. All the members of staff that we came into contact with were welcoming, polite and always happy to help. Honestly it was 10 out of 10 !!! We will be back.
Perfect bliss
Book a stay in the Lord Lonsdale suite and you will love it. Recently refurbished, it is in a great spot for a lake view from your own balcony. I could not stop staring at the Mulberry wallpaper, nailed the old vs new style, the bathroom is so beautiful. Staff were really welcoming and friendly and the food was excellent. Make sure you prop the bar up and admire the landscape design fashioned into the local slate, so much attention to detail. Thank you to all who looked after us, can’t wait to return.
Wonderful
Service, facilities, and food were all excellent. The team were all amazing, and they couldn't do more for us. Thank you, especially to Greg, for a very warm welcome.Sarah and Rowen, for the lovely dining experience. Emma for making every breakfast a delight, and the kitchen team. Food was out of this world!
Amazing service.
A brilliant night out from start to finish. Tom was fantastic & welcomed us as soon as we entered, he was really warm , friendly and extremely professional, at the same time making it personal for each and every guest he was serving that night. We had the steak chateaubriand which was amazing as well as the starter and desert. We will be returning for sure, wish we were in the area for longer. Hope to see you guys soon .. if not at the lakes down at Cornwall if you pop down!
A Hotel With Heart
We stayed in an inside double and had a really lovely time. If you want a modern, shiny, anonymous and functional hotel stay, this is not for you. This hotel has HEART. With it's cosy nooks, wooden panelled walls, roaring fires, comfortable lounge and staff who make you feel like a guest, not a room number, this hotel is a big hug on a chilly day. You will want to relax and enjoy the atmosphere. Our room was lovely, spacious and warm. This is an old building and, granted, our room furnishings were a little tired, but this was no big issue for us. The staff were wonderful, so helpful and friendly. A big thank you to Sarah, Emma and of course Tom the manager, who could not have been more accommodating and is so passionate about this place. I have to mention the food - this was exceptional. Breakfasts were a treat and the restaurant meal was beautiful. The question for us will be 'when' we can go back, not 'if'.
A great discovery!
Thanks to Tom and the team for a wonderful stay! A pity it was only one night but will definitely return. Great hospitality and excellent food - the breakfast particularly good! With one of the best views in the Lakes, it really is a great discovery!
Cold and overrated
That supposed to be a nice and romantic night with my fiancée but unfortunately it wasn’t . The room was really cold we had to ask for an extra heater . The manager gave it to us with very unfriendly attitude. The place is overpriced and overrated same as food . We weren’t happy at all and won’t come back there ever again .
Wow! Excellent!
A very enjoyable two night stay! We visited Holbeck Ghyll about 8 years ago. Back then the service and atmosphere was stuffy and pretentious. I’m very happy to say that is no longer the case! And it’s all down to Tom and his team. Friendly and attentive service without being too imposing. We had a fantastic five course tasting menu. Breakfast was excellent too. Holbeck Ghyll is a beautiful Victorian Counrty House with lots of lovely period features. Very cosy and welcoming. There are beautiful views across Windermere and beyond to the mountains. Well worth a visit. You won’t be disappointed!
Stopped in here for a night on the way to Scotland.
Tom, on the front desk to great care of us checking in and getting us oriented. The lodge/cabin was clean, well layed out and inviting. We opted for the casual menu for dinner as we had two kids with us. We started with the charcuterie board which was excellent as was the beetroot started which is served with goat cheese. For the main course we has the salmon which was excellent, fish and chips, burger and mushroom pasta were very good. We returned for breakfast of traditional fare which again was excellent. We only had one night here due to our schedule but we would go back...

Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.

Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it? |
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.

I have some reservations coming up tomorrow that have gotten lots of views but haven’t sold yet. I haven’t made a sale yet since I just joined this week. I keep lowering the price, but am worried they won’t sell. How long did it take you to sell your first reservations? And did you have success being reimbursed by AT for no-show or cancellation fees? Just looking for a little reassurance. Thanks!

This app is a catfish and overrun by people programming “bots” and algorithms. It makes it frustrating for someone not well versed in this to have any movement. I thought this would be a fun side hustle, but unfortunately it’s become like any other “side hustle”. Don’t waste your time with this crap. Not a question, just a suggestion. Also don’t pay these fake “gurus” hundreds of dollars to teach you. Might as well sign up for a software class. 😕
