Set amidst the rolling hills and pristine waters of England’s beloved Lake District, Holbeck Ghyll is an exceptional property that spans over 15,000 square feet. Currently operating as a luxury country house hotel, this late 19th-century manor, originally built as a hunting lodge for Lord Lonsdale, presents a unique and compelling opportunity to create one of the finest private residences in the region. Designed to take full advantage of its elevated position, the property offers uninterrupted panoramic views across Lake Windermere.





Upon entry, guests are welcomed into an imposing wood-panelled entrance hall. The ground floor features four grand reception rooms, each benefitting from generous proportions, original fireplaces, and scenic outlooks. The extensive industrial kitchen, while designed for commercial use, offers the scale and flexibility to be reimagined as a dream family kitchen and entertaining space. The lower ground level includes a dedicated wine cellar and a private office.





Currently arranged with 24 individually designed ensuite bedrooms across the first and second floors, the home blends contemporary comfort with classical style.





Beyond the main house, additional accommodation includes several guest lodges and a self-contained three-bedroom cottage; ideal for visiting family, private staff, or income potential.








Located in the heart of the Lake District, Holbeck Ghyll enjoys a setting that is both secluded and accessible. The property lies just minutes from the village of Windermere, renowned for its charming shops, cafés, and railway connections to the rest of the country. This region has long captivated artists, writers, and holidaymakers alike who have long been drawn to its serene lakes. Designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Lake District National Park is celebrated for its natural splendour offering endless opportunities for walking, sailing, and a retreat from everyday life.
