The B&B was delightful and charming, it had so much character and the bird songs and life was heaven to hear and see. The breakfast was delicious and so well presented. The hostess and owner was so professional and welcoming and it was cozy, warm and very comfortable. Very central to get to walks, the lake and places of interest. Thoroughly enjoyed it and will be back.

Warm, Cosy, Welcoming, and Relaxing
What a wonderful stay. Powter Howe B&B is relaxing, cosy, warm, and welcoming. The views from the B&B are incredible, and the location is perfect for walking in Whinlatter Forest. There is a bus stop close by for a bus that’ll take you to Keswick in ten minutes. I felt well looked after by Karen, with many thoughtful touches, and would love to return. Thank you!

Warm and friendly welcome
Country house that you would expect it's quirks which makes it amazing. Very warm and comfortable , clean and tidy. The host makes you feel at home and ensures you want for nothing. Excellent breakfast which was ready to order. Really did enjoy my stay, but for having to cut short would of definitely enjoyed another night away from modern life.

Wonderful old house with real character, Karen our host always lit a fire every evening and you could sit and read and enjoy watching it. The room was spacious and the bed comfortable with great views of the surrounding countryside. The complimentary breakfast was fantastic and cooked to my preference. All in all i had a wonderful stay.
