Powter Howe

Karen is a wonderful hostess. Our room was excellent. Clean and well appointed. The breakfast was as good as it can get - perfect.

BRILLIANT PLACE AND SOOPEACEFULL

This was the best place I have stayed in for years. I would love to go back again..... Lovely breakfast, good parking, fantastic internet and brilliant hospitality.

Great place to stay while hiking in the Lake District.

The house is in a beautiful location and we were greeted by Alfie. We were made welcome from the very beginning and looked after well. Our twin room was perfect with amazing views. We were recommended a walk to the lake and took a picnic, beautiful scenery and incredibly relaxing. A must do! We were provided with a delicious cooked breakfast and fresh bread. We will absolutely be visiting again and we wished we’d stayed longer than 1 night.

A beautiful place and the hostess is quite hospitable. Lovely old farmhouse. Wonderful breakfast.

This is a delightful property with a lovely host. It isn’t anything flash but if you’re looking for quaint and original then this is perfect. It is an older house so has the creaky floor boards and matching decor. Bathroom is clean and newer. Slices were provided on arrival and a beautiful English breakfast included the next morning. Was able to go for walk down to the nearby lake and take in the surrounding beauty. Would be a great place to base yourself for exploring the lakes district further.

A very pleasant establishment just outside Keswick. Free parking and local bus stop. Room is in a really old terrace cottage full of character. The proprietor had a roaring fire going and she offered some homemade cafe to have with a brew. Breakfast was great - the eggs were fresh and provided by the hens in the garden. Can't wait to go back

Beautiful, warm, clean, friendly - this place is packed full of charm and original features couldn't have asked for a better place to stay - thank you.

Enjoy it go back again

Cracking location and friendly host who couldn’t do enough to help you. A great place to get away from it all, yet only a short cycle to Keswick

I have really enjoyed my stay here, it's a wonderful home in beautiful surroundings. The owner could not be more be welcoming and helpful. Had a great sleep and first class breakfast. Thank you

A peaceful location, a welcoming and attentive host, beautiful surroundings, and great food. A nice escape from the noise of Keswick town centre. I had a very comfortable bedroom and the bathroom was everything I needed after a hard day running up the fells. It's nice to sit in the garden and watch the hens.

Wonderfully charming quaint b&b. Greeted on arrival by the very welcoming host who immediately set the fire away and brought me cake and biscuits, she was very helpful and informative regarding local walks. The property and grounds are superbly maintained and it was so peaceful watching the chickens roaming freely from my bedroom window and listening to the birds.

Powter Howe is a wonderful place to stay. So welcoming and homely for a B&B. A beautiful old house and garden, plenty of space, very peaceful, a lovely breakfast and open fire in the evening. Mrs Lockwood is an excellent host, and the other guests who stayed during my 9-night visit were very pleasant as well. There are lovely short walks nearby to the lake and in the woods, and only 10 minutes drive to Keswick. I hope to be back soon.

A beautiful location, very peaceful and a welcoming host who was very attentive. A lovely spacious bedroom, great bathroom. Breakfast was substantial and I enjoyed the short walk down to the lake, along with the gardens which added to the vibe, along with the hens! Thanks again for a wonderful stay.

Beautiful location. A very informal and friendly atmosphere.

Unique, beautiful property. I was really well looked after, cakes and biscuits in the afternoon. The breakfast was amazing-couldn’t fault a thing. My room was very comfortable and had everything I needed. I would absolutely recommend a stay here and would love to return one day.

A beautiful, secluded, charming 15th Century farmhouse with stunningviews. Delightful host, a superb breakfast and I'll definitely return.

Very traditional 500 year old Tudor house. It’s beautiful. Has its quirks - sloping squeaky floors, uneven walls, nooks & crannies & so much history! The landlady is a fabulous baker, serving up all homemade mince pies, millionaires shortbread & a homemade bread as part of breakfast! She even makes her own jams & chutneys - I bought 2 to bring home. It’s like staying in a home from home. It’s warm, welcoming, cosy & so homely. Plenty of parking space outside, lots of wildlife roaming in the gardens & beautiful dogs in the house. Would absolutely stay again.
