Sharon July 2023

“We really enjoyed our first holiday in Silver Howe.”

The accommodation is superb and the view of Grasmere Lake and beyond interrupted our reading time after time. The kitchen is very well equipped and we would have taken the bed and shower home with us if we could! The location is perfect for exploring the local area and beyond. Our bus passes were used time after time as we visited Windermere, Hawkshead and Keswick. Our walk around Grasmere Lake was a highlight. Quite beautiful. Thank you Anne - we hope you will allow us a return visit before too long.

- Sharon, July 2023

Thank you so much for your kind comments, I’m so pleased you enjoyed your stay and would be delighted to welcome you back very soon. Anne Property Owner
Jo February 2023

“Perfect apartment for a short birthday break.”

Really well equipped and comfortable. Great location and view of Grasmere. No need to use the car if you like walking. Walked from the door up Fairfield via Alcock Tarn on a perfect sunny day. Also on the route of my favourite run along the lakes and back along the coffin route. Lesser spotted woodpecker seen in the garden. We hope to return!

- Jo, February 2023

Thank you for your kind feedback. We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed your Birthday stay at Silver Howe. We look forward to welcoming you back again. Property Owner

“Superb holiday home.”

Carol December 2022

“An excellent property, warm, cosy and well equipped with private parking space.”

The walk from Grasmere Village is uphill so guests should be prepared for that especially if you’ve just done a long hike on the fells. The Coffin Route walk accessed from the gate in the garden located to the right above the terrace is a lovely walk and Rydal Hall at the Ambleside end has cafe with the best Hot Chocolate. Just a couple of things: the lights over the table don’t work and the shower head holder is loose, (not holding the head up).

- Carol, December 2022

I’m so pleased you enjoyed your stay. I appreciate and thank you for flagging up re the dimmer switch and shower head holder. They have now both been rectified. Hope to be able to welcome you back in the future. Property Owner

“Silver Howe was very comfortable and clean with everything you could need.”

- Oonagh, September 2022

Many thanks for your feedback and so pleased you enjoyed your stay, do hope you will be able to visit again sometime Property Owner
Maxine July 2022

“This is a gorgeous apartment, set in glorious private grounds.”

It is furnished and finished to an incredible high standard, but at the same time still feels comfortable and homely. There is lots of great walking from the door. The only negative for me was the rambling 10 steps from the parking to the apartment as I have mobility problems.

- Maxine, July 2022

Shani April 2022

“An amazing place to stay!”

Extremely comfortable with quality fixtures and fittings. Fantastic view from the main living room window. Excellent location with walks from the door and walk into Grasmere. Wi-Fi heating issue resolved quickly with the owner. Our preference would be to control this for ourselves. However, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to a return trip. A true home with all the finishing touches we look forward to having on our holiday.

- Shani, April 2022
Maureen April 2022

“The accommodation was exactly as described and the views from the window where beautiful.”

June September 2021

“The shower did not have a non slip floor and although we are fairly fit for our ages we didn’t feel safe so bought a non slip mat to put in there.”

Also it was quite chilly in the mornings and as the heating was operated by Wi fi, we did not know how to put it on. Otherwise lovely apartment with wonderful view and able to watch the birds and red squirrels from the window.

- June, September 2021
Katie July 2021

“We have stayed here 3 times now over the last 3 year and we absolutely love this place!”

Such a nice location, a beautiful decorated flat and very clean. We will definitely be booking again. The only slight small feedback I would give on this occasion would be, if it is possible, having an electric fan available in the flat would be amazing (we stayed on a very very warm weather week). All round a wonderful stay.

- Katie, July 2021
Michael July 2021

Ambleside 5 miles; Windermere 9 miles; Keswick 13 miles.

Situated in the heart of the Lake District National Park is the lovely village of Grasmere, probably best known as the home of William Wordsworth, a place he once described as "The most loveliest spot that man hath found". Any visit to Grasmere needs to include The Grasmere Gingerbread shop, where the Wilson family has been making gingerbread for over 60 years. Also in the village are a number of shops, pubs, a church which dates back to the 13th century, and Grasmere Lake. Grasmere Sports takes place every August, where you can watch participants compete in a variety of sports, including Cumberland wrestling. Just five miles away is the town of Ambleside and Lake Winderemere where you will find shops, pubs, restaurants and the 17th century Bridge House, which is one of the most photographed buildings in the Lake District. Cruises, boat trips and watersports can all be enjoyed on Lake Windermere, and the towns of Windermere and Keswick are also within driving distance. Grasmere is a wonderful base for your Lake District retreat.
