ATTENDING A WEDDING: When a couple books their special wedding day at Holdsworth House Hotel, we make them a promise that theirs will be the only wedding celebration on that day at the hotel. As such, it is with genuine regret that we are unable to accommodate honeymooning couples or guests attending weddings at alternative venues on the same night as a wedding taking place here. Holdsworth House is an intimate setting and many years' experience has shown us that having two wedding parties in the building can create difficulties, and sometimes distress, for both parties. This is why we guarantee couples marrying here that they and their guests are the only wedding guests permitted access to Holdsworth House for any 24-hour period. Please note, this access is not limited to the bedrooms; it also includes the public areas and our gardens. Any booking made through a third party website, which is found to be connected with a wedding taking place at another venue, will be immediately cancelled by Holdsworth House Hotel, refunded of any payments made and the guest will be duly notified at the earliest opportunity.
OPTIONAL SERVICE CHARGE: The optional service charge is a payment that recognises and rewards all Holdsworth House employees when you receive outstanding guest service. The optional service charge is 5% of your total bill value. It can be removed immediately from your bill at your request. The optional charge fairly rewards the whole team, regardless of their role, for delivering outstanding guest service – so all members of Holdsworth House will receive it. If you desire, you can still give a cash tip, which will also be shared amongst the Holdsworth House team.

Central register of recruitment agents and supplier contracts.
DUE DILIGENCE

Holdsworth House Hotel has a dedicated compliance team, which consists of involvement from the following departments:
Legal/Commercial
Human Resources

FUTURE STEPS
In the forthcoming year, Holdsworth House Hotel intends to take further additional steps including:
