About

A warm welcome awaits you at Lindeth Howe, a property once owned by Beatrix Potter. Set in 6 acres of beautiful grounds, with stunning views over lake Windermere and to the fells beyond. The hotel boasts beautiful bedrooms, cosy lounges, a well stocked bar, a 2 AA rosette awarded restaurant with a delicious seasonal menu to suit all tastes. We serve afternoon teas daily, all of which are made fresh by our team of talented chefs.

It's peaceful location means residents are able to relax in the gardens or in the lounges enjoying afternoon tea or browsing through many books, guides and leaflets on the area as well as information on Beatrix Potter herself.

The hotel has a unique history being formerly owned by famed children’s author Beatrix Potter and the history of the house can be seen detailed on the wall near reception in a timeline of images and information.

For whatever the reason that brings you to the Lake District, Lindeth Howe will create the perfect atmosphere and make it an enjoyable and memorable stay.
