This hotel is situated on top of a hill overlooking Windermere. The view is exceptional. The Lake District is breathtakingly beautiful and sitting on the terrace gazing down on the hills and Lake is heavenly.The grounds are filled with beautiful plantings and sophisticated and witty sculptures. The decor is trendy and colorful and comfortable. We found the food to be quite good. The problem was that in spite of booking a superior room we were given number 17 which was next to a fire door and stairs. The fire door banged noisily all night. I believe they could add some padding to at least muffle the banging sound.I told the receptionist who said that since they were all booked they could not put me in a quieter room. If you go do check your room number in advance and do not accept 17.

We had a night here as a birthday treat and I can honestly say it’s one of the most beautiful hotels I’ve ever stayed in. The grounds, Henrock & rooms were exceptional. The service was excellent & we would love to stay again. One of the loveliest hotels in the Lake District

From the moment we arrived at Linthwaite House, everything was exceptional. Our suite was beautiful, the grounds were stunning to explore and both dinner and breakfast were faultless. A special thank you to Jasmine, Karen and the whole team for making our stay so memorable. — Will & Alex

A friend and I enjoyed a lovely afternoon sipping cocktails at Linthwaite House. The bar has a stunning position with views of Windermere and the fells behind. It was a bit too chilly to sit out on the terrace but it would be an amazing spot in summer. The service really made the experience special. Theo our waiter was charming and knowledgeable and made perfect recommendations. Manager Jasmine made us feel incredibly welcome. Vitor or Vito (sorry not sure which) sure mixes a mean cocktail. His signature elderflower cocktail Whispering Tarn was unexpected and amazing!

Another excellent visit to our favourite hotel in the lakes. The friendly, professional service we receive from start to finish always makes us return. Nice surprise of a room upgrade 😁
