    There wasn't anything we didn't like

    The room was lovely, clean and warm. The whole house is beautiful and comfortable. Breakfast was probably the best we've had. Loads of choice and red hot. Hosts very friendly and helpful

    A great place to stay when in Windermere. Excellent value! Really friendly owners who are hands on and run things properly. We stayed in the annex which blew us away with how spacious and clean it was! Great breakfast choice fresh from the kitchen. In three words, immaculate, comfortable and cosy!

    There was nothing not to like, fantastic visit

    Susann and Glen are lovely, welcoming hosts who gave us helpful tips on where to go locally and how we can get around easily. We booked our visit after our wedding and they took the time and effort to decorate the room with Mr and Mrs bunting, and congratulated us on our arrival. The morning breakfasts were delightful and they sat us looking on to their beautiful garden every morning. We highly recommend a visit and we would happily visit again. They are both truly wonderful people and it's a delightful and gorgeous place, couldn't have been made to feel more welcome and cared for throughout! Thanks so much for our wonderful stay.

    Susann and Glenn run a wonderful guest house ideally located in Burness - on Windermere. They are generous hosts and happy to provide details on places to visit and local restaurants and pubs. The property is very well maintained with lovely gardens. On site parking is a bonus.

    Suzanne welcomed us as soon as we arrived and showed us around and to our room which was better than the photographs show. Suzanne was very knowledgeable about the area and explained the best places to visit, all the staff were very friendly and Glenn's scrabbled egg and salmon was to die for. Thankyou again for your hospitality and we look forward to booking your beautiful guest house again, Shaun & Wendie

    1 reed diffuser too many in the hallway for me; smelt lovely, but a little overpowering! My only complaint and it's a minor one at that!

    Very comfortable bed, shower was great. Garden gorgeous, breakfast delicious. Hosts knew the area really well and were very informative with great advice. Hosts were very friendly.

    We were in room Annex. The double bed room can hear the cars on the street. It’s not big problem but if you are a light sleeper, maybe choose the other room (there is also a twin bed room).

    The rooms are stunning and Susan family is lovely.

    Susanne and Glen are welcoming hosts. Room was as described and clean. Comfortable bed and good hot shower. Varied breakfast options lovingly served. Can walk into Bowness on Windermere along the lake path. Can come and go with your own set of keys. Hosts are informed about the local area and won't hesitate to help out with tips and advice. Definitely recommend.
