Holbeck Ghyll
Country House hotels in the Lake District don’t come much better than Holbeck Ghyll
Holbeck Ghyll is a fantastic English country house hotel beloved of those looking for some rest and relaxation in beautiful surroundings, and kindly played host to a recent COUNTRY LIFE fashion shoot, published on October 15 2008. A majestic location overlooking Lake Windermere and the Langdale Fells in the English Lake District is a perfect setting for Holbeck Ghyll. One of the Lake District's finest country house hotels, Holbeck Ghyll provides an oasis of calm, surrounded by stunning landscape, yet only five minutes from Windermere.
Dinner in the Michelin Star Restaurant overlooking Lake Windermere is a must for all visitors and the exclusive spa is a perfect place to be pampered. The majority of bedrooms enjoy the breathtaking lake views - there is a choice of more traditional rooms in the main house, or lodge rooms with private balconies or patios. The Miss Potter Suite is truly the finest for that special occasion and suites in the grounds include The Shieling, The Gatehouse and Madison House.
Lowtherwood, a detached barn in the grounds, is our latest development and has four bedrooms –all absolute luxury - and is ideal for a special family gathering - and where our fashion team stayed during the shoot.
