Just over a mile from Hawkshead, this lovely detached cottage offers cosy and welcoming accommodation for up to eight guests, with plenty of space for three dogs as well. Ideal for exploring the Lake District, this charming retreat makes a fantastic base for a larger family or a group of friends discovering the spectacular Cumbrian countryside with their canine companions. Set along a tranquil country lane with beautiful rural views, this is a wonderful and relaxing spot from which to explore Coniston Water, Grasmere, Windermere and Esthwaite Water (all within 8 miles).
The light, inviting and tastefully decorated lounge is a perfect space to unwind in at the end of a fabulous day, with comfortable seating, TV, DVD and views across the garden. The dining area is set behind the main seating area and is ideal for sharing a family meal which you can prepare in the light, stylish and fully-equipped kitchen. The utility room features a washing machine and freezer, and is useful as a boot room and space for cleaning muddy paws. The main bathroom is also on the ground floor. The cottage has five cosy bedrooms: a double and a single on the ground floor, with a double, twin and a single upstairs as well as a shower room. Going outside, the spacious back garden features a beautiful large lawn with attractive mature shrubbery and trees, and plenty of space for dogs to exercise.
Hawkshead offers a number of excellent dog-friendly pubs, and there are wonderful walks for your four-legged friends to take you on, with Tarn Hows (1 mile) and Claife Heights (6 miles) nearby. Dogs are welcome in the grounds at Wray Castle (3.5 miles), on local steam railways and on trips across Windermere.
