The Howe rests in Cumbria, a quiet corner where the land softens towards the coast. It lies 7.3 km south-west of Kendal (from Kendal: bearing 231°T, OS grid SD 457 884), and is situated west-south-west of Brigsteer village. Here, the rolling landscape, under skies that often hold a pearly luminescence, offers a sense of gentle enclosure. The scattered dwellings of The Howe seem to have grown organically from the very soil, their stone walls absorbing the muted light of the North West. A palpable sense of peace pervades the air, a quietude that whispers of generations who have worked this land.
