We first found a luxury afternoon tea offered on e-bay. Then we got a good offer for a room. The afternoon tea with sandwiches, scones and cake was simply wonderful. And the lounge rooms are really nice. As to the room: First, to get there with your lugage was ok for us; but for seniors who have lugage for several... more

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed a long week-end at Linthwaite after booking a last minute break.The weather was wet but the beauty of the place is that it makes it even more appealing in inclement weather! more

We booked this hotel at the last minute as plans had changed and were looking for something a little special. Linthwaite House Hotel delivered in spades, from the minute we arrived and were shown to our, well presented and equipped room, to the minute we departed after a hearty breakfast we were made to feel welcome. We had afternoon tea... more

Our stay was prompted by the 'glowing' report from our daughter of the overall excellence of the hotel following a stay she had made in the recent past. We soon realised that her view of the excellence of the service and overall attention to detail that was a characteristic of every member of staff was 100% correct. We found that... more

We're very lucky to be able to travel and stay in lots of lovely hotels all over the world, so we offer this review compared to places like Gidleigh Park, Hambleton Hall, Langhams and The Airds Hotel. We booked Linthwaite a couple of weeks ahead of our stay, on a whim. We wanted to extend our stay in the Lake... more

We stayed for 3 nights, and the hotel was perfect. From the understated but excellent service, to the quality of the food, everything was great. It was nice not having to constantly sign pieces of paper when we ordered something. We had a small problem with service in the restaurant, and the issue was dealt with quietly and efficiently before... more

We first went to the Linthwaite in 1995 and have been many times since, yes there are cheaper places but if you want the best or an exquisite treat then this is the place. The food is fantastic and on a sunny day there is nothing finer than sat on the patio with a beer or glass of wine overlooking... more

This hotel is exquisite. Set in the hills above Lake Windermere, with breathtaking views across the lake, it is beautifully appointed and luxurious. The rooms are light and airy and spacious. The bar and lounge are comfortable and cosy. There are books for guests to read and it has the atmosphere of a country house rather than a hotel. The... more

We stayed in the new loft "suite", which is ludicrously overpriced for what is essentially a medium-sized room. It is full of electronic toys, and has a very large bath, but it is located at the back of the hotel with a view of the car park, not the lake. The room has some very poor features. You can hear... more
