COVID-19 UPDATE
Updated: 18.10.21
It been a joy to welcome you back to Holdsworth House in 2021. The hotel is fully open and taking restaurant, private dining, and bedroom bookings, as well as new wedding enquiries. Thank you to everyone for your continued support.
It is not mandatory for guests to wear masks during their visit to Holdsworth House. It is down to personal choice and I would encourage you to do what makes you feel comfortable. Our staff will no longer be wearing face coverings unless requested to do so by guests, and we are very willing to oblige any such request.
There are plenty of hand-sanitising stations around the building and we continiue to be, as always, meticulous about our hygiene and cleaning practices and to use hospital-grade supplies. We also continue to Covid test our team on a regular basis, closely following the government guidance.
Finally, do remember that all gift vouchers bought in the last 12 months are valid until 31st October 2022.
