Lindeth Fell Country House

Hotel in Bowness-on-Windermere

Overlooking Lake Windermere, Lindeth Fell offers impressive views and free parking, just 5 minutes from Windermere Ferry Crossing.

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!

Bowness is the busiest tourist place in the lakes.

Bowness is the busiest tourist place in the lakes. Whilst some people might not like that, it does have a multitude of places to eat, drink, wander and enjoy the vista. Please try Porta, I have been visiting the restaurant for over 30 years, it is fabulous and for me is a must visit venue. I know it’s touristy, but that’s for a reason, it is a really nice place to be.

Bowness is a very compact, beautiful, scenic place. It is easy to walk around the town & walks around parts of the lake very accessible. Great boat trips available of varying lengths. Easy to get to other towns & villages by car or bus. Masses of eating places for a variety of tastes. Lovely area to view in any kind of weather.

We enjoyed walking around the town, despite the rain.

We enjoyed walking around the town, despite the rain. Car parking was expensive and it was busy, despite being term time. We had a delicious breakfast at a cafe over a bakery. We loved sitting at the lakeside watching the boats.

Bowness is a fabulous base to sightseeing from.

Bowness is a fabulous base to sightseeing from. It's a lovely little area of the Lake District. Very busy at times and too much traffic and not enough parking spaces. Best to get there early if you need to park. Lots of bars, restaurants, cafes and shops. Sunday market. Lots to see and do.

A lovely hotel in a perfect location in Bowness. Walking distance to all the shops, restaurants, pubs and lake. The room was comfortable and clean, and the shower provided lovely hot water. Plenty of tea, coffee, hot chocolate, sugar, and milk was provided, along with a couple of lovely cookies. Cold filtered water was available out on the landing. Nice bar with fantastic views from the terrace. Breakfast was plentiful with a good choice of hot and cold, even a doughnut bar! Would definitely stay here again.

The apartment was a great size, clean and had a small enclosed garden for our dog. Just what we needed for our time away. Location was perfect for us. It was only a 10 mins walk to bowness on windermere or windermere and there was also a bus outside which went both locations when we were feeling lazy.
