Situated close to the picturesque Lakeland village of Hawkshead, this stylish Grade II listed property dates back to the 18th century, and has been thoughtfully updated to provide cosy and relaxing accommodation for up to six guests - with space for a couple of pet dogs as well. A wonderful holiday base for a family or a small group of friends, this attractive property is perfect for dogs and their owners looking to explore Esthwaite Water, Coniston Water, Windermere (all within 5 miles) and Grasmere (9 miles).
With exposed ceiling beams and a lovely open fire, the warm and welcoming lounge is full of character and makes a comfortable and elegant space to unwind in. The pretty dining room benefits from an open fire, a selection of antiques set in a wooden dresser, and a dining table which is perfect for any meal. An archway leads from the dining room into the bright and fully equipped kitchen which is a pleasure to cook in. The three charming and tastefully decorated bedrooms can be found on the first floor – there’s a king-size double, a twin and a bunk bedroom as well as a bright and stylish bathroom. An enclosed patio to the rear of the cottage has a BBQ, seating and a table so you and your canine companions can relax outside at the end of the day.
The picturesque village of Hawkshead has a number of dog-friendly pubs and makes a wonderful base for exploring a stunning part of the Lake District. Dogs and their owners can enjoy breathtaking walks in locations including The Old Man of Coniston, Claife Heights (both 5 miles) and Tarn Hows (2 miles). Dogs are also welcome to join you on steam railway trips, ferry crossings over Windermere, Grizedale Forest (2.5 miles) and the grounds of Wray Castle (3 miles).
