Such a gorgeous cosy cottage. Everything you need in the kitchen. Pretty bedrooms with comfy beds. Showers work really well, powerful and hot, although the water takes awhile to run away in the en suite. Heating worked well warming the whole cottage on chilly evenings. Nice welcome gifts.

This lovely cottage is set in beautiful Hawkshead village. It has all the amenities myself, my husband & our 16 y/o daughter needed, for a 5 night stay, we definitely could have stayed longer! Would love to visit again, maybe in the summer, to appreciate the surroundings more. Parking outside the cottage wasn't an issue. We had an EV, and the chargRead moreers in the public car park were both broken. Closest place we found was Booths at Windermere. Hide

Lovely cottage situated close to the centre of the village. You could park your car for the week and enjoy walks from the village every day. While we were visiting only one pub was open with others undergoing refurbishment. We are considering returning in the autumn.

The 2nd time we have stayed in this cottage in the heart of Hawkshead. A good size downstairs with a lovely dining area, plenty of room for 4 adults. Main bedroom is a good size with a smaller room with 2 single beds. The smaller room is pretty cosy. We will definitely stay again.
