I stayed here last weekend with my girlfriend to celebrate our anniversary. We stayed in The Court room, which was absolutely stunning. I would certainly advise this room if you are a couple looking for a relaxing time away. The style of the room was very modern and contemporary, with white sofas and bedding, and the bathroom was truly lovely,... More

I booked a one night stay as a surprise birthday present for my wife's 40th. The hotel is in a fantastic location, overlooking the Bristol Channel, and the interior is beautifully decorated, as was our room, Skomer. We made use of the hotels facilities, including the pool which was great, and after a spa treatment, decided to check out the... More

My husband and I had the pleasure of staying here. A warm welcome and our room was upgraded without asking because they were not too busy. The breakfast was perfect and served with a warm smile. Our train was leaving cardiff station at 1.30pm and they told us we need not rush to vacate the room, so we chilled out... More

We had booked for just one night at the hotel - we overheard one of the other guests comment that staying here was like staying in a friends house and that sums the experience up very well. The house is a little different and quirky and makes a very refreshing alternative to staying in one of the larger hotels that's... More

My wife and I had the pleasure of staying at Holm House recently for 2 nights of our honeymoon. The staff are fantastic, very attentive and did just enough to make us feel really welcome without being overbearing. The facilities are really good, we really enjoyed the pool. Middleholm is a fantastic room, it's two balconies having beautiful views over... More

After reading some older mixed reviews we went there with low expectations. We arrived on a dark, windy evening and as soon as we entered we were made to feel very welcome. It is a very, warm cosy place. The decor is very well done, it hints at 1920s opulence while being contemporary. Our room - Skomer, was very comfortable.... More

I took my wife to Holm House for their Christmas Menu dinner on a night out away from the kids. The food and service were excellent. My wife had a salmon mousse starter, traditional turkey main course and then apple tart dessert. The actual food was way beyond my description and the bar area where we had a drink beforehand...

Holm House is an exceptional and idyllic hotel. My wife and I visited in the hotel at the early part of December 2011. The frontage does not indicate the splendour within, which becomes apparent the minute you enter into the wood panelled entrance hall. The style of the hotel is clearly 1920’s décor and it is easy to imagine the... More
