Skendleby Hall Anmeldelser 

Very interesting old hall with eclectic grandeur and mysterious historic vibe. Attended a retreat day with health talks, breathing exercises and yoga. Fun day with healthy varied lunch and lovely hosting.

Our stay at Skendleby Hall was absolutely amazing! We enjoyed it all and honestly wished we had booked for longer. Amanda, the owner, was wonderfully welcoming, warm, and always happy to help. As a family who often stay in similar properties for a few days each summer, we can honestly say this is by far the best. You can truly tell how much thought and care has gone into the stunning decor. The games room is great and the snooker room too. We even hosted a murder mystery at the house, and it was a fantastic setting for it. We couldn't recommend Skendleby Hall more highly and will definitely be back :)

We organised and attended our Mother's special birthday at Skendleby Hall , where friends and family came from far and wide to enjoy this very special venue. It was perfect for our requirements, providing a luxurious place to spend special time together. We had children within the group ( one as young as 4 ) who were made very welcome at the Hall and the children throughly enjoyed their time playing together in the extensive outdoor space.
The kitchen was accessible to the dining room , which made catering and serving the 5 course birthday meal very easy.
Upon retiring to the drawing room for coffee , my sister and I realised we had forgotten to buy the ground coffee! Not a problem because one quick call to Amanda and she was on hand to immediately save the day. Thankyou Amanda!
In all we had a wonderful time together in the beautiful surroundings of Skendleby Hall. Certainly worth coming all the way from Newcastle for ! Wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others and hope to be back at the Hall again ( hopefully attending one of the fantastic yoga retreats held there) very soon.

Wow, wow, wow! Skendleby Hall is simply incredible! From the moment we drove onto the grounds, we felt like we had stepped straight into Downton Abbey!
The attention to detail throughout the estate is just beautiful, with every room having its own character and charm. Amanda was an absolute pleasure to deal with and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed for our stay.
When we entered the house we felt it would be the perfect setting for a murder mystery evening, and asked Amanda if she could help organise this and she was truly amazing. At very short notice, she arranged for a company to come in and create a customised murder mystery to create enough characters to accommodate all 28 of us. It made our stay even more special!
I loved that there are two games rooms as these kept everyone entertained, with a full-size snooker table and a pool table, there is also a board games room, but my favourite room by far is the music room, complete with a beautiful baby grand piano which i found hard to stay away from!
We had the most fantastic time and honestly couldn't have chosen a more perfect setting for our extended family vacation.. we have stayed in nany stately homes over the years and this has definitely been our favourite one. . I'm already excited about coming back again — hopefully very soon!
Thank you, Amanda, for making our stay so memorable. Skendleby Hall is truly something special! ❤️

The Hall will always have a special place in my heart.
We recently hosted our wedding at the hall, it was perfect from start to finish. We had guests from all over the globe so it was important to us to have a comfortable base for everyone. Every room has a private bathroom and everywhere was clean and well kept. The hall was cool even though it was the height of August, some rooms were hot in the night but fans were supplied and extra fans purchased by the hosts when needed. The grounds are amazing with lots of games for the kids and big kids! We had various suppliers visit during the weekend and they found it easy to setup.
Amanda was an incredible host catering to our every need. Her an Adrian made our wedding weekend so special and took care of all our guests. We can’t wait to come back as often as possible. The hall is a special place and perfect for families.

We had a wondeful stay for our family of 30, the host was warm and accomdating. The house was beautiful and I'm looking forward to staying again in the future.

Just got back from 3 days at skendleby hall.
Group of 25 ish.
The house was fabulous, the location is excellent. The host was so lovely I just can’t square it with the most recent negative review I just saw. The host was very attentive and responded quickly to our first day queries.
It’s a period house with lots of great attention to detail. But also, two modern kitchens and hot water on demand. (Lovely strong shower).
Our extended family has been taking a big house every year for about 15 years. This has been one of the better ones. Shame the hot tub was out of action due to the hosepipe ban but there was plenty of other entertainment in the house to keep us busy. (WiFi, sky, Sonos sound in every room, games room
Etc). Plenty of parking and an electric car charger on site. We will definitely be going back.

Such a lovely house and an even lovelier stay. Everything was perfect for our family of nearly 30 plus our dogs. The house had so many great amenities and the bedrooms were wonderful. The host, Amanda was very attentive and went out of her way to ensure we had the best stay possible. We cant wait to visit again!

Great house and fantastic host. This magnificent house has everything anyone could need. It’s spacious, well equipped and lovely decorated. We did a murder mystery too in the house and it was fantastic.

We will absolutely return, highly recommended.

Absolutely incredible home, wonderful host, would recommend to any big group! Very private, loads of rooms with various activities, you won’t even need to leave the house once. Absolutely loved it here, can’t wait to come back

We had the best time. The house is amazing with plenty of space. It was very well equipped with everything you could need. Amanda is amazing and really accommodating. We will definitely be coming back.

We recently stayed in Skendleby hall for a long weekend in June 2026, it was for a family gathering with the ages is being from 2 years to 82 years old,
We highly recommend this hall, it was absolutely perfect , the inside was beautiful and clean, and had everything you could possibly need, every bedroom was en suite, plenty of clean towels, and two well equipped kitchens! Out doors there was plenty of space to play, rounders , cricket and badminton , we even took a small paddling pool for the little ones, there was also a bbq/ eating area, and not forgetting the hot tub! A gent would come and water the plants and check the hot tub, we found him helpful if we needed to know anything! And finally Amanda was a perfect host, she was so easy to deal with, and nothing was to much trouble , we enjoyed it that much we have booked again for next year,

Had my 60th birthday celebration with 30 friends and family. Amanda could not have done more as a hostess to make sure that it went well and that we all enjoyed the weekend. Rooms are amazing with loads of character and charm. The facilities are great too, from snooker to boules and loads in between. Would love an excuse to go back 😁

I chose Skendleby Hall for my 50th birthday weekend, bringing together a large group of family and friends for a few days, and it is difficult to imagine anywhere that could have made the occasion feel more special.

The Hall itself is quite extraordinary. It has enormous character, beautiful rooms, wonderful grounds and seemingly endless corners to discover. It manages the unusual trick of feeling suitably grand for a special occasion while also becoming, remarkably quickly, a home. With a house full of friends, long dinners, drinks in the drawing room, games on the lawn and conversations that carried on far later than intended, it was exactly the atmosphere I had hoped for.

What really sets Skendleby apart, though, are Amanda and Adrian. From our first contact through to the weekend itself, their communication was excellent. They were friendly, helpful, accommodating and genuinely seemed to care that everything worked for us. Organising a weekend for a large group could easily have been stressful, but whenever there was a question or something we needed help with, they made things easier.

A particular highlight was Adrian’s wine tasting, although “wine tasting” may be a slightly dignified description of what became a wonderfully entertaining afternoon of wine drinking, stories, laughter and learning just enough about what was in the glass to justify another one. Adrian judged the group perfectly and made it enormous fun. It became one of those shared experiences that everyone was still talking about afterwards.

There are places you hire for an event, enjoy, and leave. Skendleby Hall felt rather different. For one weekend it became our house: the backdrop to photographs, meals, laughter, celebrations and memories with people who mean a great deal to me.

I had spent a long time planning my 50th and had very high hopes for what the weekend might be. Somehow, it exceeded them. Amanda, Adrian & Skendleby played a significant part in making that happen, and I am enormously grateful to them.

If you are looking for somewhere genuinely memorable to bring together the people you love for a milestone celebration, I cannot recommend Skendleby Hall highly enough.

Thank you, Amanda and Adrian, for helping to make my 50th birthday a weekend I will remember for the rest of my life.

The Lincolnshire Regency Society returned to Skendleby Hall for our annual Regency House Party on the weekend of 19th-21st June. This is the highlight in our calendar of events. The Hall has a calm and relaxing atmosphere, enhanced by its stunningly beautiful location. The rooms are light and airy: the decor is tasteful. The ample grounds give scope for outdoor activities such as croquet and battledore. We recommend the Hall as a weekend retreat.

We had the most amazing family gathering to celebrate two golden and one silver wedding anniversary at The Hall. So much to do for all the ages and being able to all sit down at one table to eat made it extra special. Very well equipped kitchens, lots of activities to enjoy and great suites of rooms for families with young children. Will be looking for another big celebration for an excuse to return!

Perfect location for a big group gathering. We were there this last weekend for a hen party . 27 people in one house sounds a little bit chaos but it wasn’t. There’s lovely rooms to congregate together but also plenty of place to be on your own if you wish. Every bedroom was beautiful all with en suites. One room was also kitted out for any disabilities. There’s 2 kitchens so plenty of ovens, fridges dishwashers etc. The games room is great with a huge pool table also another room with lots of other games. There’s a hot tub outside and also a large grassed area where we did a sports afternoon. Plenty of parking for several cars . Will definitely recommend this place and would 100% go back.

A fantastic venue. A great place for everyone to gather and catch up and celebrate. We had people travelling from Gran Canaria/ Ireland and other parts of England. The place is breathtaking and so homely. We felt as ease as soon as arriving. We had a great weekend and some of us already chatting about making it a yearly meet up at skendleby hall.

Amazing from start to finish!
We booked the venue for a hen party weekend from Thursday to Sunday and had an absolute blast. The venue is even more impressive in person than the photos suggest.
There were 27 of us, and we were able to cook breakfast every morning and dinner every evening with plenty of space for everyone. Throughout the weekend we enjoyed games, name challenges, Traitors, a paint-and-sip session, sports day with rounders, and topped it all off with a Beyoncé-themed party.
It truly was a special weekend, made even better by the support from Amanda while planning and organising the event. She was always on hand to help and made the whole process so easy.
We couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate and make unforgettable memories. Highly recommended!

Skendleby Hall is truly exceptional. We stayed there last weekend to celebrate my 40th birthday, and everything about the experience was flawless. There were 26 of us, yet the house felt both wonderfully spacious and effortlessly luxurious. The interiors are beautifully designed with great attention to detail, and the grounds are simply stunning.
It’s a genuinely special place, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have spent such a memorable weekend there.
Amanda and Adrian were outstanding hosts who went above and beyond to make sure everything ran perfectly. Amanda was incredibly attentive, offering thoughtful suggestions and helpful guidance on planning the weekend, while Adrian treated us to a personalised wine tasting, which was a real highlight. They are a truly delightful couple.
The catering was excellent - the food was absolutely delicious - and the cleaning team were equally impressive. I couldn’t recommend this venue more highly. Thank you, Amanda and Adrian, for such a wonderful experience! Xx
