Wonderful stay - can't wait to go back
Pros:

The location was perfect - away from the madding crowds of Bowness but near enough to walk in for the many restaurants for dinner. Lindeth Howe is soooo peaceful - beautiful gardens, lovely room, super comfy bed and a quiet night with bats flitting about outside.
The staff were exceptional, from our first welcome at the desk to all the breakfast staff to checkout. The breakfast was good too.
Absolutely loved our stay, and will definitely come again.

Cons:

It was all excellent apart from the poached egg at breakfast!

Pros:

Stayed here over 25 years ago, so it was quite a sutprise to see how it had changed. The decor would not be to everyone's taste, but it was OK. The food was very good, but the draft beer was limited with only 1 bitter on, and no Guinness.

The wine I ordered each evening was brought to the table already opened, which I don't like. It should be brought before opening, otherwise how can you be sure it is what was ordered.

All in all though, a good stay.

Poor staff atitudes and training
Pros:

Beautiful hotel in a fabulous location close but not too close to Bowness.

Cons:

I stay at hotels regularly for work and leisure . We booked a double room. I was surprised by the cold and unwelcoming approach from the Receptionist on arrival. Asking for my passport (I'm a UK citizen) and then questioning if my credit card was "linked" to my address. An alternative approach to enhancing my customer experience perhaps? We where then asked to name our breakfast time in twenty minute slots. We were advised these were rigid and they would not accommodate change. Not really the relaxing country house vibe we were expecting. At breakfast the following morning 8am there were no staff present (all chatting in the kitchen) We poured ourselves fruit juice and sat at a table for two. When the waitress arrived at 8.10.she told us we were in a booking for three and had to sit at another table. I explained we there were only two of us, but she still made us move to the next table, before serving us. The order we made was also incorrect on arrival.
A hotel that seems to have lost it's focus on the customer. Focusing more on their operations systems. Not a pleasant experience, which is a shame as a very well appointed hotel.

Perfect location, great views, friendly staff and a lovely breakfast.
Pros:

The location of the hotel is just outside the main town with a lovely walk into Bowness-on-Windermere. The history of the building is very interesting too with connections to Beatrix Potter. The rooms are clean and comfortable and the staff are very friendly. You’ll also have one of the best breakfasts you can find in the area too.

Cons:

Having to leave!
