Overview
Property code: 72378

This quaint property, situated in the pretty village of Hawkshead, is an ideal couples’ retreat – and the dog’s invited too! Sleeping four across two cosy bedrooms, you could all soon be out exploring the beautiful scenery on your doorstep. Discover the way-marked walking trails around Grizedale Forest, just 2.5 miles from the cottage, or head to peaceful Lake Windermere (5 miles) and enjoy relaxing in this stunning part of the country.

 

The cottage, which is conveniently located in the centre of the village, is comfy and welcoming with plenty of character. The warm tones of the open-plan living area make it a relaxing place to enjoy a hearty brunch before heading out for adventures, while the lounge area is the perfect spot to snooze when you return home. Plus, the pup will love keeping warm on the rug! Upstairs, take a soak in the beautiful roll-top bath in the bathroom before heading to one of the romantic bedrooms; wake up among calming, neutral decor after a peaceful night’s sleep.

 

The Lake District is a fantastic place to visit with your loyal canine. Stroll around gorgeous Coniston Water (5 miles), or head to the spectacular Grasmere (9 miles), where you’ll find Dove Cottage - William Wordsworth’s former home, or grab some world-famous gingerbread from the Grasmere Gingerbread Shop. Visit the Beatrix Potter Gallery, less than 200 metres’ walk, before heading to one of the pubs for a spot of lunch.

Lovely old cottage in the centre of Hawkshead. Great central location to explore the lakes. Didnt need to travel in the car much as there are so many lovely walks from and around the village with great pubs and restaurants.

The cottage is great for a Lake District holiday. The equipment is really good, good quality pans and appliances. The basement area is fantastic for washing or dealing with wet/muddy clothes after a walk. The beds are very comfy, and separate bath and shower room with powerful shower are great for family of two adults and two children. The locationRead more in the village is excellent, very quiet while only being a minute's walk to the well stocked Co-op, pubs and shops. Highly recommended. Hide

A lovely quiet cottage, well laid out with some quirky sloping wooden floors. I was dubious about the facilities in the cellar as the only shower was down there but the underfloor heating made it very comfortable with the benefit of drying out wet boots and dogs! . Its also a spacious area to hang coats, with extra storage, benches to sit and changRead moree your footwear. The inconvenience of parking a short walk away is countered by no passing traffic and the village itself is mainly pedestrian. Hide

We loved this cottage - it was homely, close to the village, clean, well equipped and loved the log fire. We had some amazing walks and meals in the village.

Great location and the free parking pass was a lovely touch. However the pictures are deceiving and the shower room was very disappointing . Poorly lit( gloomy) with a broken shower door and mould around the tray. No proper furniture to hang your clothes and definitely a problem if 4 people were staying ... second room has nothing at all! Could do Read morewith a revamp Hide

Lovely olde worlde cottage in the heart of Hawkshead village. Very traditional Lakes cottage feel to it and like stepping back in time but very quaint. It was just the 2 of us and our Labradoodle dog Dougie. He made himself very much at home and the downstairs area was a good asset to use after a muddy walk to give him his wash. The neighbour next Read moredoor (who has been criticized on a previous review for the parking situation) could not have been more lovely and friendly. Great location to explore Hide
