Our Lake District home from home

We have been visiting the lakes for almost 30 years, and have been bringing our son with us since he was 8 weeks old. I stumbled across Bishops Howe, and what a find this was. From the initial contact with Anne, booking and during our stay, everything has been wonderful. The house itself is situated in a quiet part of the Lakes, but has many wonderful walks straight from the door. The house itself was clean and welcoming, with home made scones on arrival from Anne. We loved it so much, we have booked again to stay in 6 months. Spring and early Autumn are our favourite times to visit and we will be using this beautiful house and welcoming host, as our home from.home in the Lakes.

I have never stayed in a rental property which was so complete.

Lots of cooking utensils! Also very charming cottage, which made us feel like home and from where you could make beautiful walks. Painful when our vacation came to an end. I truly didn’t want to leave that quiet paradise. 100% recommended!

Bishop Howe is a beautiful 'home from home' cottage.

Anne has thought about every detail to make a stay just perfect, and we wanted for nothing.We were also treated to some jams, chutneys & milk. We know the area well, and often travel up for the day, being fairly local, but we like to spend a longer time in The Lake too. Our week away was brilliant, with lots of walks, time spent browsing the lovely local shops, enjoying the festive Christmas lights, and tucking into a delicious Sunday lunch at the Tower Bank Arms. And every day we returned to a relaxing, warm, cosy and quiet cottage.

Beautiful Property with excellent facilities and an amazing view.

A real cosy “home from home” feel to it. The beds were really comfortable and the bathroom and shower room were excellent. The view across the fields is lovely and it’s very quiet and private.

Lovely cottage and location - walking distance to Windermere and Hill Top.

Really made to feel welcome in what felt like a home away from home. Enclosed garden perfect for our young children and they loved having sheep as neighbours. Would recommend!

A lovely comfortable house.

Amazing peace and lovely views. The owner is considerate telling us when the property was cleaned and sorting out a bin issue for us. The area is just across from honeypot Bowness but still very peaceful. There are 2 pubs within walking distance. Get a food delivery as the shops are a drive away. Good for children as well as oldies.

A wonderful tranquil week in a lovely cottage.

The owner Ann's attention to detail is flawless. We were blessed with stunning weather for September, there are fabulous views and walks right from the front door and the Cuckoo Brow pub at the top of the lane is brilliant. (Very reasonable prices too for the Lakes). A beautiful comfortable house in a magnificent area...if you're looking for a relaxing break away from it all in a fully equipped house then this is it.

We had a wonderful stay, with no issues!

The property was spotless, comfortable and well equipped. Good tv and wifi. Plenty of space to park. Local pub was really good and a very short walk. Owner was very helpful when we had some questions during the stay and came out to help us which was really appreciated. We'd definitely stay here again!

An Excellent Stay

"We had an excellent week at Bishop Howe, the cottage is set up with everything we need, with a well equipped kitchen and separate garden area." The location was ideal, quiet but close proximity to some nice day trips including Hill Top Farm, Grizedale Forest, Windermere lake, Tarn Hows and some nice scenic walks. Would recommend to anyone with a young family.
