Have a luxury, warm and ‘mint’ Lake District stay

Enjoy acts from some of the best street art artists in the world by day and relaxation, tranquillity and excellent food come dusk, by combining a trip to Mintfest 2012 in Kendal with a stay at the welcoming Lindeth Howe Country House Hotel in Bowness.

Mintfest runs in the Lake District ancient market town of Kendal between August 31 and September 2 and will conjure up everything from circus acts and a Fire Village, to live music and an astronaut’s caravan! Much is free to watch and enjoy, making a trip a truly memorable experience.

Just a short drive away, Lindeth House Country House Hotel, on the hill above Bowness, offers every comfort, opportunity to unwind and treat for the taste buds imaginable. Chilling out on the terrace, over a glass of wine, afternoon tea or flute of champagne, while enjoying glorious views over Lake Windermere is a total pleasure that’s not to be missed.

The delectable dishes devised by head chef, Marc Guibert, on the other hand, make dining at Lindeth Howe an experience in itself, whether you sample one of his famous ‘Trilogy’ dishes, or something equally special.

The 4 star, 2 AA Rosette hotel is known for its warm Cumbrian welcome, embracing families as genuinely as couples wanting a romantic getaway. Its policy of treating children under 7 to their own high tea keeps both types of guest happy, while the young and young at heart can share a delight in the strong Beatrix Potter connections at this magnificent property.

When not viewing some of her manuscripts, or recalling the details of the two Tales she wrote at Lindeth Howe, guests can stroll the six-acres of delightful gardens, have a dip in the pool, enjoy a therapy treatment or take the garden short-cut down into the town of Bowness with its café culture, lake cruises and World of Beatrix Potter attraction. Of course, they can just choose to relax in either well-appointed bedrooms, or luxury suites, or read the newspaper in the delightful lounge.

Over the Mintfest weekend, Lindeth Howe is offering a two-night stay, on a dinner, bed and breakfast basis, for £99 per person per night.

Book for the Mintfest Weekend and enjoy what Cumbrians might call a truly ‘mint’ experience. Room options can be found at lindeth-howe.co.uk where you can also reserve whichever type of accommodation best suits you.
