A complementary glass of Prosecco to start your stay was a nice touch. Modern room with very comfy round bed. The hot tub was already to use at 37 degrees, and was very relaxing. The spa bath was luxurious too. A large TV with netflix, a great touch. All in all a very enjoyable and relaxing room. The breakfast delivered to your room was also excellent with lots of choice. You won’t be disappointed if you want a relaxing stay.

Lindeth Fell is a magnificent property on the hills overlooking lake Windermere. The old country style exudes cosiness from the moment of arrival and the discovery of the rooms, the lounge and the library with their enjoyable little details makes the experience even better.
What makes Lindeth Fell truly memorable however is the thoroughy professional and friendly staff. Anything you want is but a question away and quite often the staff anticipate the question before you think of it. We particularly enjoyed the company of Ben, all-round good chap, always ready with advice or a quick "nudge-nudge, wink-wink" to add to the experience.
In addition to having breakfast, we also stayed for dinner, which was of a quality truly exceeding expectation: perfectly proportioned, perfectly cooked with a nice selection of affordable wines to go with them.
All in all, a most excellent experience!

We absolutely loved the decor throughout the entire hotel—stylish, modern, and thoughtfully designed. The cleanliness was top-notch, and the atmosphere felt incredibly welcoming from the moment we walked in. The cocktails were fantastic, and the location was perfect for exploring. The staff were also friendly and attentive, making our stay even more enjoyable. The amenities exceeded our expectations, from the comfortable rooms to the relaxing lounge areas. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a perfect getaway.

fantastic area, you can cover so much of the other lakes and villages easily by public transport and the ferries, As we were self catering we didn't visit any restaurants although there was plenty of choice. Did visit the lovely bakery on 2 occasions, delish fayre on offer including gluten free cakes. The ferries are regular and very clean, friendly staff

Busy town centre. Variety of shops,cafes and restaurants. A lot of traffic but polite drivers. Easy to walk around.
As I had never stayed overnight was surprised how busy bars and restaurants were. Book a table! However nothing too boisterous.
