Brilliant. From the moment I first spoke to Craig over the phone to arrange the booking, through the changes to the booking, to his kind help when recommending places to eat etc. to the visit itself, this was a perfect B&B experience. Lovely and friendly, helpful and relaxed on check-in and across the whole weekend, Craig and his wife were... More

Avoid if at all possible, I don't have enough time to discuss how bad it was, Craig I believe one of the managers is called was incredibly unhelpful and utterly rude. Some of the reviews on this page surprise me massively, anything I asked for was met with surly attitudes and bad manners, even down to a fresh towel, did... More

We think that if these guests left after having such a bad experience we would have remembered them, but we dont. Therefore after careful research we can only conclude that these people have NEVER stayed at Glenville House. We treat all guests equally, We are never rude to guests and we change towels regularly, and if guests ask us something... More

My husband and I stayed for a long weekend in March and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Glenville House. Craig was a very attentive host both on arrival and through out our stay. Lynne's breakfasts were just what we needed to set us up for a days walking in the Lakes. We stayed in one of the attic rooms, which... More

Trawled the web looking for somewhere to stay that, for us, had it all and we were not disappointed. Craig and Lynne and we very welcoming and were shown to a lovely clean and very comfortable superior room and super bathroom. Homemade biscuits on the drinks tray were delicious and the breakfasts beautifully prepared and served.... Location ideal for both... More

Craig and Lynne are very friendly proprietors and have put a great deal of thought into catering for every possible need. We went at Easter and found not just a chocolate mint on each pillow ( standard each night it seems) but a proper Easter egg on the Sunday. That's beyond the call of hostelry ( if I can coin... More

After searching on the Internet for a B&B we found Glenville House which had great reviews. After 2 nights stay, we found that it had gone beyond our expectations. We were made to feel very welcome by Lynne, who showed us to our room. The room was modern, clean with lots of extra little touches which made the stay feel... More

We booked this guest house on the basis of the excellent reviews posted by previous guests and it did not disappoint! We had booked through lastminute.com and on arrival it turned out that they had failed to inform the owners of our booking. However, Craig and Lynne sorted this out and we were given a superior room as it was... More

Can not fault it in anyway, so very well run by its very friendly owners who work so hard to keep there standards so high. Lovely comfortably bedrooms with all the little extras to set it above most other b&b's in Windermere.... More
