"I recently stayed at Silver Howe."
The apartment was spotless and it really does feel like home from home. I loved the views from the living room and the welcome brownie and milk was a lovely touch. Anne messaged me to make sure I had settled in okay. The shower was great and the bed was lovely. I loved everything about the apartment and was sad to be leaving. There are so many walks you can do from the apartment meaning you do not need to use the car. There are 2 walks from the garden, just go through the gate .The information booklet was a great help, along with walking maps. Grasmere village is a 10 minute walk with shops, cafes and bars. There are also good transport links to Keswick and Windermere. I cannot wait to book again. Thank you Anne for the perfect apartment and I had the perfect week.

"Thank you for another lovely week's stay."
The flat is clean, comfortable and beautifully presented. The views from the sitting room are stunning. We watched for red squirrels every day, but didn't see any. Great walks from the front door and Grasmere never looses its charm.
We tried to book for next year , but you are fully booked. So will be staying elsewhere for our next Grasmere holiday. Hoping to come back in 2026.
Thank you for letting us stay .

"This was a lovely apartment."
Great kitchen with all amenities, super shower room, great bed, lovely linen, good tv reception and a lovely view. Our host Anne was very accommodating and keen to make sure everything was to our liking on first arriving. The location is lovely and peaceful being a 1/2+ mile walk from Grasmere. A previous review mentioned the upward climb to the cottage - but this is the Lake District!
Thank you so much Stephen, so pleased you were comfortable and enjoyed your visit to Grasmere

"The property was clean, well equipped and had a great view from the picture window."
It is centrally located for the lakes. It was quite cold inside in the evening despite being summer but the heating was switched off. However, a plug in heater was provided which was really appreciated.
The only problem we encountered was the location in respect of exactly how steep the walk up from Dove Cottage to the property was. Unless you are really fit and able bodied, it makes walking to and from Grasmere village prohibitive. I feel the property description does not highlight this fact enough. It's not suitable for the less fit or elderly. Perfect for the fit and active and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay but would not return due to the property positioning.
Thank you for your detailed feedback. We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay and the views!
We take all comments on board.

"We had a lovely stay at Silver Howe, welcomed with a scrumptious treat and tea and coffee supplies, thank you."
The place was very comfortable and well equipped. The only things we did have a little grumble about was the lack of control with the heating. The radiators seemed to be controlled by an ap, which we didn’t have access to, although a panal heater was supplied. We only used this once or twice as the weather warmed up a bit. And we weren’t really able to use the smart TV as the internet signal was not strong enough to maintain streaming or even use tablets at times. Apart from these two minor things we enjoyed a fabulous holiday and would definitely return here. Many thanks xx
Thank you Joanne, I’m so pleased you enjoyed your visit. I’m sorry that the WiFi signal to the smart TV was poor during your visit, BT has now rectified this but I’m afraid it does occasionally fall out. I’m aware smart radiators can be quite confusing. They are able to be controlled manually with instructions in the information file but I’m pleased you were able to make use of the mobile full size radiator.

"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.

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!

"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).
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.

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.
