I've stayed in several 5 star hotels and the service in this B&B is the same. We were staying for a wedding and not only were they very accepting of the chaos of us getting ready with hair dressing, ironing, questions, taxis waiting, etc but when we realised we hadn't got the ribbon to decorate the car that was taking...

We (married couple) we're offered a fresh pot of tea in lounge area, which was really appreciated after a long day walk. We were out early on the 2nd day, way before breakfast and they left us some milk, cereal and fruit out so we could still eat. The rooms are super comfortable, nice big bed, very clean and super...

This house is exceptionally well fitted and decorated. It has the feel of a country estate that has been carefully designed to be relaxing and refined. Andrew Carey and his wife, Helen, have done a wonderful job of bringing this 1797 house into the 21st century without losing any of its charm. There is ample parking for guests at the... More

Powe House, what can I say - it was a brilliant three night stay, our only regret is that we did not stay longer but moved to Ambleside. The rooms were very clean, spacious and modern. The owners could not have been more helpful. The breakfast was exceptional, with a great choice of high quality local food. I would recommend... More

We have recently returned from our 2nd visit to Powe House. The house is immaculately clean throughout and the bedrooms are spacious and furnished to a high standard in a lovely contemporary style, our room also had a lovely view of Skiddaw. The bathrooms have heated towel rails and a very powerful shower with L'Occitane toiletries for that extra special... More

My husband and I stay here whenever we visit the Lakes. The location is great for Keswick and its surrounding areas. The owners, Andrew and Helen have spent the last few years renovating the property with such meticulous detail and effort. We have stayed in 3 different rooms and have never been disappointed once. The rooms are very clean indeed,... More
