Lindeth Howe Country House Hotel  

I thought the hotel had a friendly, comfortable feel to it. On arrival, the staff were welcoming and pleasant.

Food - my husband appears to have suffered from food poisoning. Some staff were good, others fell well short of both the desired and expected standard for this kind of hotel. Staff were noisy leaving in the early hours of the morning, then realising they may be disturbing guests, indulged in some loud shusshing. Checkout was shambolic, the receptionist dividing her attention to us with anyone who happened to catch her eye. There was no enquiry as to whether we had enjoyed our stay. When advised of the potential food poisoning the response was that 'no-one else had complained'! Overall, a disappointing stay and a relief that we had only booked for one night.

The hotel was very nice and the outside areas were beautiful. Good scenic views. The interior was well appointed and very comfortable. The housekeeping staff was very nice and keep on top of everthing.

Wait staff in the dinning room was not attentive and would pass you by rather than ask if you needed anything. You veirtually had to stop someone or even go get someone if you wanted some thing. The customer was not the first thing on their mind, it was as though we were a bothering them.

The location is excelent, the place is beautiful and the staff did everything to accomodate our needs with 2 small children. The food is great.

Although we had a great stay, I do not think this is exactly the right place for very young children, as people seem to go there to relax. It is not a criticism, just that for us it was a little bit difficult to plan our dinnings without the children, but I can totally agree with the hotel policy of not allowing small children at the restaurant after 7pm. Having said that, The staff really did everything to accomodate our needs, and my children actually enjoyed having dinner while watching tv in their room!

Warm, Good views

Over priced, could do with more parking, Could do with better road signage

The location was superb, close enough to other amenities but far enough away to feel relaxing and special in a lovely surrounding. It was a very warm and welcoming Hotel and will definately be returning in the future. The food was delicious. The 2 night stay made our anniversary a special weekend

Good position though about a mile out of Windermere. Staff helpful. Meals excellent

Bedrooms were very hot and difficult to cool down even with windows open at all times

This was our 6th vistit to Lindeth Howe, I love it for a short break, the food is excellent the staff are lovely. Good sized bedrooms and plenty of lounges to relax in. Beautiful Gardens. The hotel is relaxing as it is not formal which really suits us.

This particular visit we found the bedroom too hot but it was an unusually hot spell of weather at the time.

The friendliness, courtesy and helpfulness of staff. The varied and imaginative menus. The very well prepared food. The comfort of the lounges. The pleasure of sitting in the gardens. The excellent value for money.

Slightly noisy: disturbed by TV in the next door room.

The food was first class, staff friendly & hotel beautifully decorated.

Room a little disappointing as rather small with no views, but very clean & comfortable bed.

From the moment you walked in the door it felt comfortable and inviting. The staff rushed to take our many bags and escort us to a lovely room with that country house guest feel. Everthing you could want was provided, even a bed turn down service with a chocolate on your pillow. Dinner was served in the elegant dinning room or for the young ones there was high tea. The menu was varied and interesting and the chefs choice was excellent. Pre dinner drinks and coffee were served in the lounge and the library was a quiet haven for a read or a sly snooze. Breakfast was equally good with an interesting selection of hot dishes including smoked salmon and scrammbled egg. I am looking forward to another visit in the near future.

The staff were all very friendly and enthusiastic. I was a single guest in the hotel and was made to feel very comfortable, especially in the dining room.

My daughter liked the hotel because she found many goods and pictures of Peter Rabbit. We enjoyed this beautiful hotel very much.

Very cozy! Wonderful staff!
