Magical Hideaway With A Secret Mini Boating Lake!!

Absolutely love this place. A secret haven to relax and unwind in . If you want the best rather than best price.you will not be disappointed.Not for penny pinchers ,Luxury costs it's worth every penny .How many hotels have their own woodland with a little boating lake and beautiful sculptures everywhere ? An evening meal and dessert with a drink each ,will typically cost ,around 120 pounds if you aren't able to fine at the Henrock due to taking you dog as we did. (A sentiment which I totally agree with as it's fine dining and I would not like my experience ruined by possible other not so well behaved or well turned out dogs being in Henrock despite loving them you have to respect the fact not everyone does or wants to indulge in a wonderful eight course tasting menu with dogs being there .) It's upper end in every way . All staff are excellent and everyone is very professional from the initial greeting to your departure. The grounds and little secret lake amongst the trees are soo very magical and the cabin up next to the lake is such a wonderful place to enjoy a drink and watch the sun set.Its sooooo romantic !!! We will return.

Relaxing Weekend Retreat

I visited with my wife and daughter for a chill out weekend after a busy first quarter. This hotel was ideal with stunning views of lake Windermere and the busy boating area of Bowness. We walked 20 mins into Bowness on an evening (torch required for return leg) and during the day. We relaxed around the hotels lake, and I must stay the weather played its part too. We ate in the hotel bar and the food was excellent, breakfast was one of the best we had too, plenty of choice, nothing was too much trouble, especially after regularly stopping at other high quality hotels. I marked the service slightly down as the car park attendant / luggage buggy driver push his way past me one morning when leaving the hotel and I felt his driving was a bit quick given my daughter was onboard the golf buggy holding items and trying to hang on. It I don’t want this to distract the a great location and stay, we wanting a luxury get away, relaxing break and that what we had.

A truly wonderful Hotel

We stayed at Linthwaite House to celebrate my partners birthday, its not so much a hotel as a Art Gallery with its wonderfully tasteful decor and items from the owners private collection. Its location over looking Windermere and landscaped garden it was for us the most fantastic place to relax wonderful food and with staff that couldn't do enough for us truly 5 star for us it was a "Faultless" weekend.

Warm & Welcoming

So warm and welcoming from start to finish, they couldn’t do enough to make our stay more special for our 30th wedding anniversary. The whiskey sours are the best we have ever had. Perfect break away in a stunning setting.

I was checking in at Lithwaite House, and there was a major issue. We were traveling as a family of 3, and booked a Villa that was allowing tour to 4 guests. We are a family of 3 adults and made it clear in the communication with the hotel—yet upon checking in the hotel claims they only host 2 adults. Now, I was being asked to pay an additional £250 for a TINY sofa bed for one night by the manager in order to stay in that villa. This is a major error on the hotel's part that they did not clarify this on Expedia yet expecting the guest to be liable for their mistake. We booked this place to relax (also reserved and had dinner for 3 at the property) and came across this that just shattered the entire experience for us.
