About Lindeth Fell Country House
## Family Hospitality Since 1968
Lindeth Fell Country House embodies everything wonderful about traditional Lake District hospitality. The Kennedy family has been welcoming guests here since 1968, creating an atmosphere of genuine warmth that transforms first-time visitors into lifelong devotees. This Edwardian mansion, built in 1907, sits majestically on its own fell with commanding views across Windermere to the Langdale Pikes beyond.
## Traditional Comforts and Modern Touches
The hotel maintains its period character beautifully, with antique furniture, oil paintings, and fresh flowers throughout. Bedrooms vary in size and style, but all reflect the house's heritage while offering modern comfort. The best rooms face west towards the lake, where you can watch the evening light paint the fells in shades of gold and purple.
## Unhurried Dining and Relaxation
Dinner is a leisurely affair in the elegant dining room, featuring British cuisine prepared with care and local ingredients where possible. The comfortable lounges invite lingering over coffee and newspapers, while the extensive gardens provide peaceful spots for reading or simply contemplating the magnificent views.
## Your Home from Home
This isn't a hotel for those seeking cutting-edge luxury or spa treatments, but rather for guests who value personal service, beautiful surroundings, and that increasingly rare commodity, genuine tranquility. Book direct to benefit from the family's local knowledge, and don't miss their recommendations for lesser-known walks and attractions.
