Glebe Holme is a well-regarded holiday cottage in Windermere, praised for its excellent location, well-equipped kitchen, and comfortable living spaces. The addition of a hot tub and secure garden adds to its appeal, making it a popular choice for families and pet owners. While some minor maintenance issues and cleanliness concerns are noted, the property is generally celebrated for its amenities and the enjoyable stays it provides.
Most guests find the property to be spotlessly clean and well-maintained, though there are a few reports of cleanliness issues such as unclean kitchen appliances and bathrooms. These seem to be exceptions rather than the rule.
The cottage's location is highly praised for being within walking distance to local amenities, shops, and the lake, making it an ideal base for exploring the Lake District.
The property is generally found to be comfortable, with a well-equipped kitchen and spacious living areas. However, some guests mention that the beds, particularly the single ones, could be more comfortable.
Facilities such as the hot tub, kitchen equipment, and secure parking are appreciated by guests. Nonetheless, there are comments about the need for better maintenance of certain facilities, including heating issues and the provision of hot tub towels.
