The room was big enough, clean and tidy. The staff was very friendly and helpful with any request we had. Absolutely recommended. The location is perfect because the bus stop to Windermere and the city centre was 2 mins away.

The room is beautiful and the bed is wide and super comfortable. I checked in quite late, and sent the message earlier so the landlord kindly manage to sent the instruction on how to find my room key which I found it very helpful. The room amenities also quite generous with tea and coffee collections and chocolate drinks. Thanks a lot 👍🏽

Wonderful stay at the Glen Guest House with a fantastic breakfast. Great location, close to the train station, shop, pub, but also not too far to go to Kendal and Windermere. Pauline and Bill were absolutely lovely, friendly, helpful and nothing was too much trouble. Fantastic hosts! Would happily stay again…in fact we plan to go back in August.

Pauline and Bill's guest house is wonderful! Our room was quiet and clean and overlooking a serene little bit of forest. The room was a spacious suite which had a comfortable sofa separate to the bed. Breakfast was warmly cooked for us by Pauline and it was delicious, with fine local pork. We highly recommend this charming little guest house!

Yvonne is a wonderful host who was incredibly kind to me when I received bad news whilst staying at the guest house. She will go above and beyond to make sure you are comfortable. The property is a great location by the river and an easy walk up into town. Free parking on the streets outside. Compared to other places I looked at, this property was considerably cheaper and it proved good value for money.

Super host (Yvonne) - lovely person, very accommodating and obviously really cares about her guest house (and guests!). Great location over the river close to town. Eco-friendly products in the bathroom and local coffee. And freshly homemade shortbread!
