"I mean, it's Simon Rogan, so the food will be great, right? Yes, it is. The service will be great, right? Yes, it is. Their wine list will be great, right? Oh, it absolutely is! It is all of these things. The setting, however, is a bit special: Linthwaite House sits on a hilltop overlooking Lake Windermere, which as everybody will rightly tell you is simply stunning! And, finally, a small anecdote: our first visit there was during the height of Covid angst. We were traveling through and just wanted to grab a quick bite (they offered a bar menu served on the terrace only). As we were driving, I only had a glimpse at the wine list and spotted a pretty special Riesling, available obviously only by the bottle *sigh*. Alas, the friendly sommelier produced a nice contraption allowing us to re seal the rest of the bottle for us to take away. Going the extra step. As Rogan's folks do. Even on a hilltop during Covid."
