Welcome to Glen Isla House

About Glen Isla...

Evie & Richard - Owners at Glen Isla House

(NOTE we do NOT use the so-called big name 'off-shore owned' booking sites other than for very last minute unsold rooms if we have them, because of the very high commissions they charge us on every booking).  The BEST RATES are ALWAYS here on our official booking site - guaranteed!

We DO NOT TAKE DEPOSITS OR PAYMENT up-front like the big name booking sites! 

Our web site requires valid credit/debit card details to be provided with all reservations, however we DO NOT charge debit/credit cards until you are with us.   ANY reservation which has to be cancelled as a result of government imposed COVID/lockdown restrictions is always FREE CANCELLATION here at Glen Isla.

Accommodations Update:

 Classic Deluxe Rooms (our purpose-built guest rooms - maximum of 2 guests per room), each with separate entrances, en-suite and walk-in dressing/luggage room - overlooking the extensive private gardens.

We advise there are no cooking facilities in our Classic Deluxe rooms. Breakfast is included in the nightly rate from 8.30am in our dining room everday.

When you book here directly with us, our cancellation policy is flexible (no fees) for any bookings that require cancellation due to COVID-19 related health restriction changes and we do NOT take deposits for bookings.  Unlike the multinational owned travel agent booking sites, when you book here, there are no hidden commissions going off-shore & payment is due only on arrival.

We look forward to welcoming guests to our extensive private gardens, Classic Deluxe Rooms and 100 year-old oak trees...

A sandy beach is just 80 metres directly out our back gate!
