The Lake District's most romantic wedding venue

A sublime hilltop location overlooking Lake Windermere in the English Lake District. Perfect location for a Lake District Wedding. Voted the most romantic hotel by the AA, Linthwaite offers a truly unique wedding venue, overlooking Lake Windermere.

The secluded gardens, magical tarn and Lake District scenery provide the perfect backdrop for romantic photographs. The hotel terrace, conservatory or lounge are ideal settings for a relaxed drinks' reception.

At Linthwaite we know the importance of making sure your wedding day is one of the most memorable days of your life (and memorable for the right reasons). Our experienced Wedding Coordinator will manage all your arrangements, from ceremony to reception, so that you can make the most of your precious day and not worry about a thing. Furthermore for complete freedom and flexibility the hotel can be hired for your exclusive use.

Why not make the most out of your wedding day and make a weekend of it? You can choose to hire the hotel for your exclusive use for the weekend and enjoy both the wedding ceremony itself and your reception at Linthwaite House. In this way, you have the opportunity to say when, where and for how long - we can be most flexible regarding times of ceremony, wedding breakfast and so on, because the hotel is yours! And, you could hire the hotel and share the cost with family and friends.

Accommodation

We have twenty-seven bedrooms, so can accommodate up to 54 residents. For the bride, why not spend your final night as a single woman in our Garden Suite, while we keep your groom tucked up somewhere else in the hotel - just for the one night! And be joined by him on your wedding night...

The Wedding Ceremony

Your wedding ceremony can take place in the elegant surroundings of our Restaurant, Boardroom or for those with Exclusive Use, our Conservatory, the windows of which overlook the lake and fells.

Wedding Drinks Reception

After the ceremony, your guests can enjoy a relaxing drinks' reception on the sunny hotel terrace while admiring the magnificent views over Lake Windermere. Alternatively, we can serve drinks in our Conservatory or Lounge, from where the vista is equally awe-inspiring.
