Welcome to Raise View House in Grasmere, Cumbria... Somewhere Special in the Heart of the English Lake District.
A traditional Lakeland Stone House with magnificent views of the surrounding fells where Karen and John Greaves have created an atmosphere of warmth and friendliness, which is apparent from the moment you arrive.
Just five minutes walk from the centre of the village Raise View House is perfectly situated to explore the whole region yet some of the area’s most breathtaking scenery and fascinating attractions are right on the doorstep. Follow Miss Potter's footsteps from the house and discover for yourselves why she loved the Lake District.
The attention to detail, good food, quality of service and Karen’s interior design skills are why so many guests keep coming back to our Grasmere bed and breakfast year after year.
Read the Guardian's feature on the nation's favourite B&Bs...
"Raise View is cosy and welcoming, and the views of the fells and farmland are sublime - what an inspiration on waking each day. The freshly prepared food was so good: the breakfast a feast, changing each day. Just a five-minute stroll to the village. A perfect haven. Exceptional."
