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.

I am writing this review in hope of at least getting a response. Myself and my partner made a booking through Wowcher and have seen that glencree is not honouring red letter days so we were concerned if that affects Wowcher too. We have emailed, been on chat, left voice message and called numerous times to see if our booking is confirmed and had no response after a few days. No one picks up the phone so we now have to cancel even if our booking didn’t go through as we are not prepared to travel 2.5hrs on the off chance we have a room!

We made the booking last minute and we weren't disappointed. Glencree is a great guest house in a fab location. Ian is a very welcoming host who provides an excellent breakfast. Our room was small but very comfortable, and the balcony was a welcome addition. Free parking is always a bonus, and with the guest house being in the middle of Windermere and Bowness, you can easily walk to both locations. Would definitely recommend Glencree, and the only reason I didn't mark as a five was due to the size of the room. I understand larger rooms are available and will ask for one of these should we stay again.

Just stayed for 2 nights. Lovely guest house. Host Ian was very friendly. Great breakfast with high quality produce. Room 4 was lovely with a very powerful big shower. Thank you Ian we would stay again. Great location between 2 villages so was walking distance to all local amenities and tourist attractions.

Great place to stay! The rooms are modern and quirky! The host was great and breakfast was first class. we had to use a spiral staircase to get to our room which was brilliant ! The only issue I had was that the lighting in the rooms wasn’t great for putting my make up on. Would I stay again…..most definitely

Great stay and a super friendly and helpful owner. Breakfast is pre-ordered on a tablet when you arrive, unfortunately the tablet wasn't charged up but that is no big deal and the breakfast was very good!!
