Glenville House
This traditionally built Lakeland-Stone Victorian House sits in its own gardens backed by a stream and woodland, and is situated a short walk from both the centres of Windermere and Bowness on Windermere. The atmosphere is relaxed and tranquil. The house was built in 1888 as a gentleman's residence, on entry you will be immediately aware that Glenville still holds a lot of its original character The beautiful pitch pine entrance door with its original stained glass sets the scene for the remainder of the house.
On the ground floor there is a spacious breakfast room and a large double/twin room. The wonderful pitch pine staircase takes you up to any one of six rooms, all rooms are en-suite spacious, tastefully decorated and furnished, with full central heating, colour TV, and radio clock alarms, complimentary tea and coffee making facilities are also provided.
For those special occasions or just as a treat a combination of Flowers, Champagne, Chocolates or a Lakeland Hamper can be ordered and placed in your room prior to arrival or on the special day it?s self.
Resident Hosts and Proprietors John & Elaine Tiscornia have been welcoming guests to Glenville House since February 2003, and look forward to extending their warm hospitality to many new and old friends in the future.
We think it is important to start the day right and our delicious freshly cooked Traditional Full Cumbrian Breakfast with many locally produced ingredients takes some beating, vegetarians and special diets are catered for.
