Fantastic Little Gem
We booked a romantic weekend stay at Lindeth Howe after we saw the good reviews.
We have been staying in the South Lakes several times a year for over 30 years and used to own a property locally. However, we never got round to booking Lindeth Howe and we have now realised this was a big mistake. From now on this hotel will be our 'go to' hotel in the area.
The location was ideal, not too close to Bowwness which can get noisy and bustly yet close enough to walk in to.
The staff were very professional and very friendly. The hotel is packed with character and is beautifully decorated.
We had an evening meal which was excellent and reasonably priced. The breakfast was also excellent.
There was a man displaying owls in the garden at breakfast time who was also very friendly and keen to show off his very well kept birds.
All round an excellent experience which we will definetly repeat in future.

Lovely hotel with a beautiful views and a good background histories. The room is clean and tidy with good amenities. Staff is extremely friendly and provide very good advice for activities.
The breakfast was lovely on the first day of our day, unfortunately it went down in quality on the second day when it gets very busy.
Will recommend to people and love to visit again.

This was a beautiful hotel and we will definitely stay again.
They catered for me gluten free and vegan.
The decor is quirky and tasteful and the huge bed was so comfortable I didn’t want to leave.
Within walking distance of town but you almost don’t want to leave. Thank you and well done the team.

The property is a hidden gem, we didn’t realise the history until we arrived. Beautifully presented and location is great too. It’s about half hour walk to Bowness, 5 mins in the car.
Staff was polite, attentive and breakfast was great too. Our rooms were at the back with lovely views of the garden and lake.
We travelled as a family of 4. I would definitely recommend and consider staying there again

An absolutely stunning property with a lot of history. Upon arrival we were greeted with a smile and warm welcome. Shown up to our room personally and given all the information we needed.
It’s located in a quiet, but beautiful area of the lakes. What we loved is you can still walk into Windermere and it was a beautiful walk down from the ferry nab port which is pretty much across the road (5 mins away).
The room was very clean, beautiful and had lovely amenities. It’s always the small touches, like gorgeous toiletries from Temple Spa. A Nespresso coffee machine, and bathrobes.
Breakfast was a great choice of hot and cold; they even had home made granola. and it’s rare that breakfast is included with the room price these days.
Drinks at the bar in the evening were lovely and the real fireplace gave it very cosy vibes.
We loved our stay so much, and we will be returning due to the high standards and kindness of the hotel. We felt really valued and everyone was so kind. Thank you for such a wonderful stay

This hotel was like a dream! Every single piece and furniture was nicely picked and decorated. Staffs were awesome and super friendly! The view was mesmerizing. We had dinner and breakfast at the hotel and they were both great. There were a few cute little towns around the hotel with good food options and scenic views. Definitely recommend staying at this hotel!

Folks, Lindeth your ears..... stay here!
This is a lovely country house hotel, with friendly staff (John gets a shout out for a particularly welcoming check in experience). Nicely out of the centre of Bowness, but closeby, it has large bedrooms, pleasant bar area, and beautiful gardens. Breakfast and evening meals also very good. Much better value for money than now more pretentious near neighbours
