Clean and tidy, lovely cooked breakfast with freshly baked bread. Beautiful views from the windows and the location is perfect for exploring the lake district.

The breakfast was amazing. Freshly cooked bread and free range eggs from the resident hens!! The host was really friendly and knowledgable about the local area. The b & b had lots of rustic charm. Ideal for a quiet getaway.

Stayed 1 night

I hiked in from seathwaite, and was greeted with the most hospitable lady you could ask for after a long hike. Karan showed me to my room in a beautiful old farm house. If you want an escape from modern life and enjoy a simple retreat thats walking distance from keswick, braithwaite, and with bassentwaite lake pretty much on doorstep, Powter Howe is the place for you. I stayed an extra night than planned, as Powter Howe is a stunning oldy worldy get away, after a long day hiking, rambling, or cycling, sitting by a roaring open fire with a cuppa tea and homemade bakes, its a perfect end to an active day.
