The B&B is about 1 km from the pier and about 1 km from the town of Windermere. Everything else is good, but the room is too small. Especially in the shower room, the bathing area is very small and turning around is difficult, especially for men. There is a small refrigerator in the room. It is very difficult to put two large boxes. It will be noisy if you live on the first floor and come in and out. I would like to praise that the breakfast in the restaurant is relatively exquisite, but if you eat it every day, you may get tired of it. Thank you, the cabin has its own parking lot, which can park about five cars. The so-called swimming pool is not here. It takes about five minutes to drive to a clubhouse.

Such a great place. The room was large, bed very comfortable. . The owner, Ian, was warm, welcoming, and very friendly. He was generous with his information of the area and was extremely accommodating. The breakfast was delicious and asking for a vegetarian meal, Ian was quite happy to do so and provided a very tasty brekkie. Yes, he's a man of many hats. I'd also recommend visiting the nearby pub, Brookside, as it's the local - it has great foos and bevvies.

So much want to give this place 5 stars, King room on 1st floor, decor outstanding, bathroom excellent, very clean, but stuff like kettle, coffee machine and mini fridge placed on a window sill with an extension lead , was not really appropriate, should get rid of the chest of drawers and set up a table for this. Wanted to sit outside on the grey rattan seats, but all we would have looked at were bin bags piled up, and the other terrace looking over the river, but again the steel shutter door had been pulled shut , as if closed for the winter. When we arrived we were told that the pool was not nearby, but actually a 5 minute drive away. A beutiful place, lovely full english breakfast, just needs a few tweeks Regards S

We were more than satisfied with our hotel stay at The Glencree. The keypad and instructions for check-in were smooth and efficient. The romantic room was very clean beautifully decorated and had a cozy feel. The bed was comfortable, and we appreciated the thoughtful quality toiletries, coffee/tea-makers, hairdryer and fast, free Wi-Fi. The balcony view and setting was lovely and we enjoyed relaxing in the peace and quiet there. The restaurant and service were spot on offering a continental and/or cooked English breakfast. Windermere, is one of the most beautiful spots in the Lake District. The location of the hotel is perfect it is centrally located within walking distance for Bowness and Windermere. We were aware of but didn’t have time to make use of the off site fitness center.

Absolutely fantastic stay, we were in the amazing suite, the rooms are spotless, the shower brilliant, quirky and very us :) Bed perfect and so comfy. Breakfast was cooked perfectly. Ian is a hands off host which we loved, but is there if you need help. The hot tub and view and stream by the side made this trip so amazing. Perfect after a day walking. Location 10 mins to either town, highly recommend Base Pizza. Thank you so much. We will be back :)
