Rare Glimpses: Jools Holland, Son George, and Life at Cooling Castle
By James H. Sterling
What does Jools Holland’s son, George Holland, do for a living?
George Holland maintains a private personal and professional life away from public scrutiny. Unlike many children of high-profile musicians, he has opted against working as a celebrity personality, focusing instead on private commercial and creative interests outside the media glare.
How many children does Jools Holland have?
Holland has three biological children: daughter Rosie Holland (from a previous relationship with Mary Leahy), son George Holland, and daughter Mabel Holland (both with his wife, Christabel McEwen). He also helped raise his stepson, Frederick Lambton, Viscount Lambton.
Where is Cooling Castle located, and is it open to the public?
Cooling Castle is situated in the village of Cooling on the Hoo Peninsula, near Rochester in Kent. While the adjacent Cooling Castle Barn is a commercial wedding and event venue, the historic residential castle and gatehouse itself remain the private, guarded family home of Jools Holland and Christabel McEwen.
