This stylishly decorated and tastefully furnished 16th-century cottage has been lovingly updated to offer attractive and relaxing accommodation for a family or a small group of friends looking for a spacious holiday retreat in a beautiful part of the Lake District. With ample room for six guests with two canine companions, this thoughtfully renovated cottage is set in an idyllic rural location and lies on the outskirts of the picturesque village of Hawkshead, known for its links with Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter.
The bright and airy lounge is perfect for everyone to unwind at the end of the day, sink into the comfortable sofas and watch a movie or chat into the night. The delightful kitchen/diner is ideal for cooking and sharing a favourite meal, and there’s also a sunny conservatory offering uninterrupted views across the beautiful countryside. Three tasteful, light and restful bedrooms can be found on the first floor and are lightly decorated in an understated style. There’s a king-size bedroom, a twin and a bunk bedroom ideal for younger guests. The cottage features a quiet and attractive garden for you and your four-legged friends to relax in, with a patio where you can sit back and enjoy a morning coffee.
The tranquil village of Hawkshead is within a quarter of a mile and has a number of fantastic dog-friendly pubs, and this cottage is within easy reach of Windermere (4 miles), Esthwaite Water (1.5 miles), Grasmere (8 miles) and Coniston Water (4.5 miles).
