Silverholme at the Graythwaite Estate Reviews

Charlotte

A very special place wonderful accommodation, views and garden. Unusually for a property of this size, all bedrooms were excellent. Activities on site rib rides, clay pigeon shooting, swimming pool were all great too. Thank you!

We had a wonderful week in Silverholme. A fabulous location to explore the lakes and a most amazing house. Easily accommodated 16 of us with a well equipped kitchen. The view from the picture window in the kitchen were out of this world and when the sun went down a roaring fire in the drawing room was super cosy. Highly recommended.

Beautiful house for a family celebration, thanks to all the team who are so helpful.
