A fantastic stay. The lady who runs Powter Howe could not have been friendlier and was very patient with me on my arrival, including with my sad attempts to get my car into the place! This is a beautiful, proper country house - very spacious room, lovely breakfast. It is very quiet here. The log fire was amazing and it was great to spend a quiet evening here away from it all! I would stay again.

It was such a beautiful house and room. I loved the uniqueness and traditional style to it. The lady made me feel very welcome and was very helpful and friendly. Would absolutely recommend this to anyone who enjoys something different to a regular, boring hotel. Thank you so much

Very clean .lovely old house Lovely hostess.

Karen is a brilliant hostess. She welcomes you into her beautiful historic, unbelievably cosy home, some of which dates back to the days of Tudor. The rooms are spotlessly clean and warm. The full English breakfast is substantial and very tasty. It is well posted, being only a 5 minute walk from the lakeside and a two minute walk from the bus stop to Keswick or Workington. I will definitely be going back.

Spotless and comfortable

Great traditional breakfast, excellent cleanliness, plenty room to park

Lovely place to stay, friendly, warm, comfortable, clean and breakfast was delicious, thank you.

Charming host, comfortable room and great breakfast. I found it a little difficult to locate, but that may be my problem. Highly recommendable

Lovely peaceful country B&B with great views! Lovely host who looks after you well. Close to Keswick.

This is a wonderful place to stay with a very warm welcome. It's a very comfortable family home with excellent views across Bassenthwaite Lake to Skiddaw, comfortable bed, a very filling full English breakfast (also with cereal and toast), very quiet, a short walk to the lake side, at the foot of Whinlatter Forest and close to a bus stop for the X5 to Keswick or the Workington direction. Parking is next to the house.

A great place to stay, clean, comfortable and a friendly host. In a location perfect for exploring the local area. Always enjoy my visits!

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.

Great B&B with a lovely host, beautiful location, very nice room, delicious breakfast- everything was perfect, will definitely come again.

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
