Gorgeous guest house
Brilliant stay at The Glencree. Great location and beautiful property. Ian our host was amazing, nothing was too much trouble. We stayed in the romantic double with balcony, although the room was small it was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. Overall an outstanding stay and would definitely return.

A fab stay in Windermere!
We stayed at Glencree for 2 nights, our first time in the Lake District. We couldn’t have wished for a better break away! Ian, the host, was super friendly and gave brilliant advice on activities, restaurants etc., upon arrival. The location was perfect for short walks into both Windermere centre and Bowness. The room was spotless with gorgeous decor and morning breakfast was delicious. Will 100% stay again in the future. Thank you!

Fantastic cheers Ian
What a beautiful guesthouse we had the small room with the balcony the room is small but very clean and comfortable, the toilet again was beautiful. The only improvement needed was to put some sort of canopy or umbrella on the balcony as you can’t sit outside if it rain’s.

100% stay at Glencree
We stayed at the hotel for a couple of nights as a getaway. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, and modern too. The service was excellent and Ian really cared about his guests stay. He was very welcoming and went out of his way to make our stay was the best it could be. The breakfasts were great as you could pick and choose from the options. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone. I can’t wait to stay there again but for longer next time.

Excellent hotel
Very modern and stylish hotel. We stayed in romantic double room with balcony. It was lovely although the room is quite small. Travel size fridge available in room. Bathroom really nice and clean. Very good shower. Host Ian is very friendly and accomodating. Breakfast was delicious and Ian cooks it according to your requests. Excellent location between Windemere and Bowness.

Charming family home
Very friendly and helpful. Lovely room but not suitable for anyone who can’t manage a narrow spiral staircase. Owner offered to take bags up for us. We knew about the staircase when we booked. Near to Bowness-on-Windermere and lake. Great breakfast.

Close to the action, everything is within a 10 -15 minute walk. Owners were very friendly and even accommodated my no dairy, no gluten daughters requests. All the rooms were very well appointed with furnishings. Breakfast was very good. Only bad thing to say was parking was tight and had to backup into a busy street.

This is a lovely place to stay as it is right in between Windermere town and Bowness-on-Windermere. Ideal for walking to both. Hosts have only recently taken over but are brilliant. The only misgiving i would have is that rooms 4 & 5 are accessed by a wrought iron spiral staircease. I didn't see any reference to this when i booked. It wouldn't be ideal for anyone with mobility issues. Overall a nice stay.
