Woodlands Guest House and Glenburn Hotel, one of the Lake District’s largest guest house properties, has been brought to market for a freehold asking price of £2.75m after its owners decided to pursue other business interests.
The properties, which trade jointly as Woodlands Windermere, were linked four years ago to create a 30-bedroom guest house. It also includes two self-contained cottages within the grounds – one with two bedrooms and one with three bedrooms – which can be used either as additional guest accommodation or as owners’ accommodation.
Woodlands Windermere is located around a 10-minute walk from the shores of Lake Windermere and five minutes from Windermere railway station. The site also has a large car park for guests.
According to Christie and Co, who is handling the sale, the business benefits from year-round trade, attracting both domestic and international visitors. Properties of this size are relatively uncommon in the guest house market and are more typically associated with larger hotels.
The current owners said: “We are delighted to be working with Graham Wilkinson from Christie and Co to help us find a new owner for the business, which will then allow us to explore new opportunities.”
Graham Wilkinson, senior agent at Christie and Co, added: “This is a great opportunity to acquire a substantial room stock and two cottages which could provide additional income.
“The opportunity to acquire such a sizable asset in the Lake District is relatively uncommon, making it ideal for a new owner to establish a strong foothold in the area or for an existing operator to add a substantial number of bedrooms to their current portfolio.”

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
