Weddings in the Lake District - What our wedding couples say
Kate, this is just to say a very big thank you for the very professional way in which you organized our wedding arrangements at The Linthwaite. It has been a real pleasure to sit and discuss various things with you and you have have been most helpful and cheerful throughout. Many thanks Kate. April 2010
I would like to thank all staff at The Linthwaite for a wonderful, pleasant stay for our wedding. The service and food was excellent. Once again thank you all for making our day so special. April 2010
To all the staff at The Linthwaite - Thank you so much for making our wedding weekend so special. It was more perfect than we could ever have imagined. We were given a wedding book at the end of the weekend which all our friends and family had written in and everyone commented on how fantastic the hotel, staff and food was over the whole stay. You even sorted the weather out for us! We'll certainly be back for our anniversaries in the future. With many thanks again and best wishes
May 2010
Kate, you have been great - so helpful, calm and nothing seems to much trouble. The organising of the weekend was not just stress free but its been great fun! Thank you again
May 2010
Thank you so much, we feel really lucky to have had such excellent and friendly support from you along the way May 2010
Kate, it has been a real pleasure organising this with you. Thanks you so much for your positivity, efficiency and kindness! May 2010
Kate, thank you so much for all your hard work in sorting out our wedding at Linthwaite. You've made planning the wedding an enjoyable part of the whole build up to the big day, rather than the stressful encounter so many other people seem to experience. Its been a pleasure to work with you
May 2010
Kate, its just a quick note to express our thanks for what was a fantastic couple of days we had in the Lakes. We cannot fault the hotel or service at all, in any way shape or form. You and the staff really did make our day very very special and the planning and execution was just perfect. A massive thank you must go to you for all your hard work and planning that really was the key to such a successful and stress free day and also to Sarah who looked after us and our guests brilliantly during the day, we simply couldn’t of hope or wished for any thing more.
May 2010
Kate, thank you so much for all your help and advice with organising our wedding! I couldn't have done it without your help! Anybody who's organising a wedding should have a Kate :-)
Thank you so much for everything
April 2010
Our daughter and son in law's wedding was a wonderfully happy occasion. The staff from the moment we arrived until we departed were very attentive and professional. Of course the food was fabulous together with its presentation and service. All our guests were so happy and relaxed that in fact they didn't want to leave. So thank you so much for all your plans and efforts in the months and weeks leading up to the wedding as it all paid off!
March 2010
We were married at the hotel in December and I really don’t know where to start with this letter of thanks. I have been a flight attendant for 11 years and have been fortunate to travel the world and stay in amazing hotels and because of this, I feel qualified to be able to comment on hotel standards. The Linthwaite blew me away fro so many reasons. The breathtaking scenery is always a plus point of course but the hotel itself is a delight. I just love the tasteful décor and the new bar area is stylish and calming and reminds me of an upmarket New York cocktail lounge. I stayed at the Linthwaite earlier in the year and enjoyed the calming colour schemes in the bedroom and the relaxing atmosphere in the lounge area during the evening. One of my favourite experiences of the Linthwaite is the restaurant. Your head chef is a credit to you; his food is exquisite and beautifully presented, in my opinion as good as any Michelin star restaurant in London. Our wedding breakfast menu was absolutely perfect and we had so many compliments from our extremely impressed guests. The thing that impressed me the most is the staff, the restaurant staff were all fantastic, so friendly and welcoming and the really couldn’t do enough to help us and our guests. The same is to be said of the reception team, so helpful and friendly, they really are amazing. Jane is the duty manager I have dealt with most during my wedding planning and the actual wedding day. When it came to the day of my wedding, I already felt Jane was a family friend as I had built up a real rapport with her during the months leading up to it. She has such a warm personality and she really cares about making people feel comfortable and happy, nothing was too much trouble for her and her calmness made me feel relaxed and at ease which was so important. My biggest thanks goes to Kate who has been an absolute pleasure to work with and who made our wedding day the most special and amazing day of our lives. We planned the day together over a period of 18 months and Kate made me feel like I was the only person ever to have had a wedding at the Linthwaite. Her organisation skills are totally unbelievable; she made everything easy for us and made something that is notoriously stressful into something that was actually really fun. I am really going to miss our regular email exchanges because she is such a lovely person and we have grown very fond of her. She is amazing and an absolute credit to the Linthwaite team. I really can’t than you enough for the wonderful experiences we have had. The Linthwaite will always be somewhere dear to us and we will be regular guest over the coming years and we will especially look forward to returning for our first anniversary next year. December 2009
To Kate, Mary, Andy and the rest of the team, we wanted to write to say a massive ‘thank you’ for everything – from first visiting Linthwaite this time last year we had a great feeling and you didn’t disappoint! From beginning to end everything was taken care of: Kate made the planning so easy and covered every detail, an absolute star. Mary and Andy ran the day like a dream, so efficient and nothing to much trouble. The food and service were simply fantastic, without doubt the best wedding breakfast we’ve eaten (and not juts because it was our wedding!) Feedback from our guests is the real best though and a credit to ALL the team, both front and back; everyone was thoroughly blown away by the whole ‘Linthwaite experience’ and came away with a lovely warm glow…. What more could we ask?! Its fair to say neither of us can recommend Linthwaite highly enough, it will always be a special place for us and we can’t wait to come back and visit again! December 2009
A million ‘thank yous’ wouldn’t be enough! – December 2009
Thank you for all your support – December 2009

Thank you so much for all your help in the run up to the wedding. You really did help to make it the most perfect day! We look forward to seeing you again soon when we next visit Linthwaite!! – July 2009
We wanted to send this letter of thanks to you and all the staff at Linthwaite House Hotel for creating a truly perfect wedding day for us. We cannot thank every member of staff enough for their efforts throughout the whole of our wedding day. Our expectations were completely surpassed in every way by the sheer dedication and commitment of the staff to ensure that every single one of our guests enjoyed an absolutely wonderful day.
During the planning of the wedding, Kate has been unbelievably supportive. Every little detail of the wedding plan was adhered to and Kate consistently went above and beyond the call of duty to help us in any way she could and most definitely added to our special day.
Our highest regards must also be extended to Richard, the chef, as the food was absolutely exceptional. From the canapés, to the wedding breakfast and the buffet, right through to breakfast the following day, the quality was unwavering of the highest quality. One of our guests commented that it was "one of the best meals he had ever eaten". Considering that he used to work in the industry, this is a huge compliment. Our special thanks must also be extended to the managers on the day; Jayne, Mary and Sarah. Their wealth of skill and knowledge all lead to the day running smoothly without a single glitch. We would also like to thank every single member of staff from the front of house team, the kitchen staff and housekeeping. We wish we knew all of their names to thank them personally as they all deserve a personal mention.
You will be delighted to hear that the comments from our guests have been nothing but excellent regarding all aspects of both the venue and the staff. Many of our guests travelled from various parts of the country and have since said that when they return to the Lake District that they would love to revisit Linthwaite House Hotel.
Personally we cannot wait to visit everybody again as obviously Linthwaite House will always be a special place for us. With the dedication and help of your team, the day was more than perfect and for that we will be forever grateful. We very much look forward to seeing you all again soon! July 2009
Thank you so much! You really did create the most perfect wedding day for us both! July 2009

Please can you pass our thanks on to all of your staff, everyone we met at those who we did not, did you proud. A special thank you to your Head Chef, every thing from afternoon tea to breakfast and the wedding breakfast its self were top class, and the comments from our friends (2 current Head Chefs and 3 ex Head Chef) was that where is the Michelin Star, I don't think it will be long until you see it .If you would like us to sell weddings for you, just ask, we would sing nothing but praises! - March 2008

We just want to say thank you very much for everything that you and all the other staff did for us on our wedding day.

Everyone did an amazing job and the hotel is even more spectacular than I remember. Our only regret is that we can’t get married every year and keep coming back. I don’t think there’s anything more that we can say except effusive thanks to everyone again. You are all stars. Thanks again. If we can’t find a loophole that allows us to get married again, you may be seeing us for our anniversary. - June 2006
