The Coniston Hotel Country Estate & Spa - Skipton

We went for Sunday lunch. The service and food was excellent. I had the roast beef- it was delicious. My dad had fish and chips and he enjoyed it too. We went to the Xmas fayre and that was lovely. A great way to spend a Sunday. We will definitely return.

Staff made the stay so nice. Helpful with booking, check in and mostly leave you alone unless needed. The Grounds are Beautiful and perfect for a morning walk! Close to Several small towns and good quality restaurants. Great atmosphere at the pool with mix of all kind of guest working really well with a happy vibe. Room was so peaceful.

This was a Birthday treat from my children and what a treat it was. We arrived at the hotel in the afternoon and had drinks and nibblesin the bar first followed by a couple of hours in the spa which is situated just a very short walk from the hotel, the spa staff were very informative about the spa facilities. We spent a lovely afternoon there and had a cocktail from the outside bar. A meal followed later in the View restaurant, my husband had the steak and it was cooked beautiful. I had the best nights sleep in a long time Breakfast in the morning was great, plenty to choose from, we had cereal and a full cooked breakfast. The staff was very friendly and helpful

A massive thank you to the whole team at Coniston for an amazing job on our special day! This venue has meant a lot to us over the years having first attended 9 years ago for Simon’s sister’s wedding and it has only gone from strength to strength over the years. We’ve stayed many times for a spa get away and it truly exceed our expectations on our wedding day! Rachel is a fabulous addition to the wedding team! Having met Rachel in the month before our wedding we felt instantly assured by her confidence, patience and responsive communication. Making sure each detail of our day was considered and working closely with our suppliers. Rachel was great on the day too, coordinating everything and making the event as stress free as possible for us. The food on the day was fantastic!! We had our menu tasting a year ago and throughly enjoyed that experience, but you always have the concern as to whether the food will be the same standard on mass…and I can safely say it is! We’ve had so many compliments from guests (especially on the beef) about how good the food was. The presentation when catering for nearly 80 guests was impressive. Compliments to the chefs! The Coniston makes an ideal wedding venue with being able to stay the night before the wedding and get ready in the morning from the comfort of your room. The bridal suit has a glorious view over the lake and plenty of space for the whole bridal party to get ready. My only comment here would be to make it look like the Dales Room and it would be phenomenal! Overall the staff really make this hotel! Each member of staff is so friendly, welcoming and professional, from the bar staff during the evening do, to room service on the morning of the wedding, everyone made our day special. We even had an unexpected additional guest ‘an OAP Labrador’ who was so accommodated by the staff and welcomed into the wedding breakfast in his little basket! This meant so much to his owners and to us for making our day so stress free. I would highly recommend holding your wedding at the Coniston, would won’t regret it! The groom and friends also had a wonderful time on the morning of the wedding at Clay Pigeon Shooting, they said the session was great and they would all like to return. The instructor was informative and they all had a blast (pardon the pun)!!

Hotel overall was okay, food was lovely, plenty of parking. Room was a twin superior and was pretty basic for the price, a little tired and reminded me of a premier inn twin room, except smaller and the beds we had were 3ft singles (clearly a double bed split) The room was clean, and quite a distance (3 corridors) from reception. The hotel bar was quite small, considering the size of the hotel. The room provided Iron & Board/ tea/coffee/robes/hair & shower gel. Patio was a bonus along with the big towels. Restaurant was nice and the food & drink was great at a reasonable price. Check out was quick although I was initially overcharged, which was quickly rectified on return.

Lovely location, wonderful staff and comfortable room with desk, table and sitting area. Bathroom had a seperate shower and bath and was exceptionally clean. Stayed for 4 nights and staff were amazing, warm and welcoming. Ate in the restaurant most days for breakfast and dinner and was never disappointed with the selection and quality of food provided. Spa, walking trail plus other outdoor activities are available on location. Wonderful stay and I cant wait to return.
