My husband, 3 children (15,13 and 5) and I stayed in river cottage for the weekend of 10/5/13 to celebrate my 40th birthday. This delightful cottage in the grounds of the hotel was perfect for us. Just a very short stroll to the main hotel allows easy access for meal/bar etc. I can not fault the service - they were... More

The Glenburn Hotel is just old fashioned in everything except its pricing. A dark room (N°14) with a tiny bathroom. No soap tray in the shower, low water pressure and tiny shampoo and gel tubes of an unheard-of brand (containing parabens). Anti theft plastic coathangers, no blackout curtains, no wifi in the rooms, frying oil smells wafting in through the... More

Thank you for this review I am so pleased Trip Advisor allow us to respond. Very sorry the hotel was not up to expectations for the guest visiting us from France and i am very disapointed with the comments. Hoteliers have instincts which send signals as to what to expect as soon as guests walk through the door and 95%... More

We had 2 pleasant nights at the Glenburn which is conveniently located between Windermere & Bowness just a 15 min walk to the lakeside. The room was spacious, clean & comfortable with modern decor & a spa-bath in the ensuite. The food was of high quality, well prepared & presented & the staff were particularly helpful & friendly.

They are also associated with a hotel where u can use the swimming pool and health club. The hotel is clean and comfortable and they have a small... More

We stayed at the Glenburn Hotel for 2 nights for a weekend break. It's located between Windermere and Bowness; around a 5 minute walk to Windermenre and 10 to 15 minutes to Bowness. The staff were very welcoming and helpful and all seem to work very hard to look after their guests. The hotel is fairly small and traditional, which... More
