Holdsworth House Hotel & Restaurant Reviews (168) Write a review A Fantastic Day Venue Service By Roger and Lesley, on 14 Jan 2020Date of Wedding - 02 Jan 2020 Dear Claire, just a quick note from me to say a huge thank you to you and all the staff at Holdsworth House who gave us a fantastic day on 2nd January! Both Lesley and I loved the day, I had high expectations, and they were amazingly surpassed! Until that day, Holdsworth House had hosted the best wedding I had ever been to in the UK, and had only been beaten by one held in Segovia. I may be biased, but I think ours beat it. We have been inundated with messages about how good the day was. Staff, food and venue. Tracy and all the others in attendance throughout the day were outstanding! Thank you all very much! All our best wishes for 2020 and beyond!

The food was fantastic and our guests were really impressed with it and the setting itself. We couldn’t fault anything, wish we could do it all over again! Thanks to Claire, Joseph, Chris, Ben and Tracey and all the other people who made our day so special! Venue Service By Elizabeth Conroy, on 13 Jan 2020Date of Wedding - 24 Oct 2019 We knew as soon as we saw Holdsworth House it’s where we wanted to get married. The pain free package meant that I had no stress at all throughout all the planning as anything we added to the day to entertain was through choice rather than necessity. The food was brilliant. We loved having the opportunity to go taste first and everyone commented on how fantastic it was and how full they were! The whole day was perfectly organised and so stress free that even though our speeches made things over run we didn’t even notice. The staff were wonderful and led us through the day so well ensuring we got to enjoy time as a couple not just hosts. The staff and hotel are wonderful and made our day so incredibly special!
