About this property

Silver Howe is a sumptuous three bedroomed house hidden away from the bustle of Bowness. On arrival you’ll discover a beautiful, architect designed Lakeland home nestled into a rocky outcrop surrounded by mature trees - this is the perfect holiday cottage for both family and friends.

Created to be as social a space as possible, with a generously sized lounge that opens out onto a veranda and the garden. A large well equipped kitchen and an airy conservatory dining space. Sleeping six guests over three bedrooms including two with ensuite bathrooms, Silver Howe has an array of additional features; an grand hallway with an oak staircase, several patios, beautiful gardens and private parking.

Silver Howe is the perfect place from which to experience all that the Lake District has to offer from country walking to the World of Beatrix Potter, cycling to sailing, along with great food, drink and a fabulous atmosphere.

The vibrant twin towns of Bowness and Windermere hold enduring appeal for visitors to the Lake District National Park, with each providing a range of nearby attractions, amenities, shops and restaurants to suit all tastes. A variety of boat trips and boat hire are available from Windermere Lake Cruises in Bowness to Brockhole, Ambleside and Lakeside (at the southern end of the lake where the Lakeside Aquarium and the Lakeside and Haverthwaite Railway are situated). The World of Beatrix Potter attraction and the Old Laundry theatre are 1.5 miles away. Orrest Head, where Alfred Wainwright was inspired to write his series of iconic guidebooks, is a 30-minute walk to enjoy the spectacular panorama of far-reaching views over the lake and surrounding fells. Brockhole, which offers high wire tree top experiences, is less than two miles away, and the historic villages of Grasmere, Ambleside and Troutbeck are a short drive away. There are also a variety of watersports on offer for the more energetic at marine centres along the lake. The area is ideally situated for exploring all that this region has to offer, whether by foot, bike, car, railway or bus; and is within easy reach of attractions such as the spectacular Langdales, Beatrix Potter’s Hill Top House at Far Sawrey, Coniston, Grizedale Forest Park, with its delightful walks and famous outdoor sculptures, mountain biking and “Go-Ape” adventure park, Ullswater, Kendal, Keswick, stone circles, Roman forts and England's highest mountain, Scafell Pike.

    The house was a real home from home with excellent beds and enough space for our family. One point to note is that whilst the wooden floors are lovely, it was very slippy under four in the hall area and one of our party (a pregnant lady) nearly suffered a fall as she slid along the floor. Possibly a notice to caution guests would ensure extra care is taken when entering. Would definitely look to book in the future.

    The property is spacious and beautiful. Rooms are light and airy. Everything we needed is provided. It would have been nice to receive a small welcome pack but this is the only thing I would suggest for improvement. Parking was good. Location great. The house was warm. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen well equipped. We will be returning next year.
