We stayed on a Saturday night and found the room tired with dirty marks on some of the furniture like the chairs. Some of the furniture was broken and wouldn’t shut I.e the mini bar cabinet etc. I used the hairdryer and found a pair of dirty knickers in the bag. I would not expect this from a 5* hotel costing over £300 per night. Such a shame. Breakfast was good. Did not raise issues with staff as we were only staying one night. Service otherwise good.

Beautiful experience staying on this gorgeous property. It is the picture of serenity and English countryside beauty. The wait staff were so friendly and helpful - one of the best hotel staffs we've ever seen. We will never forget our time at this lovely place.

Lovely hotel and food, and some staff were really good but several of them really let it down with odd and rude service. Barman in particular left us baffled by just repeating 'sit down please' 'sit down please' in a very gruff tone when we were simply stood at the bar waiting to order a drink. No 'hello, welcome, what can i get you' or anything like that. It was as if we were misbehaving school children causing a scene or that he didn't feel we should be there. As this was not long after we arrived, it set the tone for our stay and left us with a bad feeling. Making us carry our luggage round the hotel tour we also thought odd... why couldn't we leave it at reception or, for the price, have it taken up to the room? Because of this, the tour, which would've been a nice touch was rendered pointless as the staff member kept saying 'i won't show you this as you've got your bags with you', 'i won't show you that as you've got your bags with you'... Also, at least twice we assumed things we'd ordered or been offered had been forgotten about during our meal as they took so long to arrive - not what you'd expect at a Michelin-starred restaurant. Finally, i injured my hand having had to use such force to open the door to access the outdoor seating area. Worrying as it was also a fire exit. Sadly, although the hotel itself, grounds and food were very nice, for the price and given we've had much pleasanter experiences at much cheaper but equally nice hotels, we won't be returning.

Stunning place with incredible garden surrounding. But bring a dog and get ready to be stung for another £150 costs.

Linthwaite house is an excellent property and with great views. The Staff is amazing and super friendly. Excellent service and has a great restaurant too.

Fabulous hotel with spectacular views. Room very comfortable and staff friendly and attentive. Would highly recommend Henrock restaurant.

This is an outstanding property with an amazing staff! Every staff person makes you feel special and does everything in their power to make your stay enjoyable! Special shout out to Jasmine and Jessica! Two great employees! Their work ethic and ability to make people feel special is second to none! We will be back!

Absolutely fantastic stay ! Everything was perfect , staff so friendly. Hotel has beautiful views and gardens stunning . Breakfast was lovely with a great menu to choose from . Definitely will return .

We had a wonderful trip

Beautiful hotel and gardens. Small comfortable rooms with everything you could need. Service not up to the standard we were expecting with exception of the breakfast service team. The staff running the bar are unprofessional and my dietary requirements were treated a bit like I was being difficult than a requirement for me not to be sick, I was a bit annoyed about this as I told the hotel in advance however they had noted I was dairy free which was their mistake.

What a gem! I was so sad to leave the property! Everyone was so charming, the facilities were stunning and the art pieces surrounding the property were magical! Marco was the first person we met on a rainy night and he could not have been more gracious! We stayed in one of the cottages and it was such a beautiful ambiance! I will recommend this property to everyone! I would love to see just a few more dining options rather than only Michelin-level opportunities since you never want to leave the property, but you want some “comfort foods”. Just a suggestion! We will be back!

Overpriced for what it is, very inconsistent staff (some are wonderful, some very rude) and parking is difficult. We also ordered room service on our first time, waited 55 minutes for microwaved macaroni cheese that we immediately had to send back as it was completely inedible, there was no discernable pasta it was like mashed potato. No offer to recook it, just the staff member who collected it from our room said "I know it's awful, it's like soup, I don't know why they keep serving it". We definitely wouldn't return.

We booked this hotel thinking it was dog-friendly, as you'd assume by their policy of allowing dogs to stay in-room (for an extra fee). We were very disappointed to find that our dog was not allowed in any of the lounge or bar areas. The staff informed us that we could sit in the entrance hall with our dog and have a drink there! We stayed over the Easter weekend. The hotel was very under-staffed. We waited a whole hour for our breakfast to arrive and, even then, we had to forego our cereal, which they'd neglected to bring over. We were told the restaurant hopes to gain a michelin star - not based on this experience.

The property was absolutely beautiful and the staff very friendly and helpful. The sitting areas in the lobby are so very nice. Its a place where you can stay in the hotel all day if you feel like relaxing. It is really a great option in the Lake district. We loved it.

Lovely overnight stay room upgrade to a suite staff were friendly and helpful great breakfast

Amazing location and fell suite room! Food and service outstanding! Would recommend

It’s just got that little touch of class. Great rooms although they are not huge. Service excellent and a fantastic breakfast.

Such a beautiful hotel in a stunning location. Every tiny detail had been thought of. The breakfast was fabulous with plenty of choice. The staff were incredible. Will definitely return and would highly recommend to anyone.

Outstanding property in great location Certainly 5 star

Outstanding hotel with excellent service

Honestly this place blew me away. It is small which I loved but first class all the way. Room was lovely (maybe a bit small), the common rooms are stunningly decorated in an understated sort of way. Food and drinks were superb. The grounds are beyond compare - I’ve never seen anything like it. The sculptures and small fell with the private reading cottage. Just an overall amazing experience. My only fault might be the inexperience of staff. I asked for some recommendations on how to get somewhere and they gave me completely incorrect information. They also often seemed a bit disorganized - I asked for late check out which was granted but then they called me when I did not check out on time. Anyway - minor issues on what was a great weekend in a magical place!

Linthwaite is an absolutely amazing property. The staff is incredibly friendly and cordial and the breakfast was amazing. The grounds are beautiful kept and the view is gorgeous. Highly recommend!

Stayed at the hotel on two separate nights.

The rooms were lovely, spectacular views from the gardens with a duck pond.

Lovely Hotel in beautiful setting

Amazing location, amazing staff and amazing food

Lovely hotel enjoyed my stay

This was booked as a special celebration and we weren't disappointed with our choice. The hotel and staff are fantastic, the views over lake Windermere are awesome, the grounds are immaculately maintained overall it's a great place to relax and unwind.

Beautiful property and really great staff.

What a lovely boutique hotel with lots of custom artwork. Our accommodations were top notch. But what made the place special was the warmth of the staff. James ran the front end of the restaurant and was very good. The front desk staff, Louise and Maria were so helpful and friendly. The bartender Victor and Ana in the restaurant made us feel very welcome. They were many others (the breakfast team), whose names escape me at the moment, but we had a very good time there, and will return again soon. I would stay at least three nights to give you ample time to do the hiking in the wonderful environs of the Lake District.

Great little break away. Fantastic staff service cant fault

Food was excellent!
