Overview
Property code: LLH08

For a fantastic family property in an enviable Lake District location, look no further than this retreat. Wonderfully appointed with plenty of communal space for the whole family to unwind together, this property sleeps five guests across three ever-comfortable bedrooms. Keen walkers will be pleased to discover that the cottage also allows one dog to stay alongside you, whilst those holidaying without a pet in tow will be just as happy with the close proximity to Hawkshead’s attractions and the impressive Lake Windermere slightly further afield.

Feel instantly welcomed when arriving at this property, making yourselves at home amongst the neutral décor that lends a calming feel to the space. Any sociable group will likely make the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner the hub of the house. Complete with direct access to the courtyard and cushy sofas from which to watch TV, this room is ideal for popping open a bottle of something and spending the night in. Alternatively, those hoping to steal away for a touch of peace and quiet will be pleased to find a separate lounge at the front of the property, similarly comfortable with TV/DVD. Boasting a wood burner and an open fire, you’ll be pleased to find that both of these living spaces can be made cosy and warm on cold and blustery nights.

A village with delights for all the family, Hawksmead really is one of Cumbria’s finest destinations. Wander on down to find the Beatrix Potter Gallery or visit the popular chocolate factory, both within 0.5 miles. Boasting plenty of shops and local pubs, the relaxing nature of this typical Lake District village will make every outing a pleasant one. For further adventure head to the impressive Lake Windermere (3 miles), the national park’s largest lake with plenty of walks and remarkable sights all around.

Just returned home after a lovely week in such a lovely house. We got pretty grim weather towards the end of the week so made good use of the log burner which was very easy to use.

A great house/cottage in a good location central to the south east Lake District. Well equipped and modern especially the downstairs kitchen and open lounge. The log burner in the kitchen lounge area made things very cosy even on a cold night in June! Loads of information on walks and plenty of games and puzzles to keep amused during the evenings.

Beautiful, cozy, nicely provisioned home with amazing views of hills, village & a sheep field right in front. Charmed by the Herdwick hogg gang of four who stuck together, running around like a pack of teens! Beds, furniture, all comfortable, lots of hot water, well equipped kitchen and appliances. All the utensils, pots & pans you would need. TownRead more has good restaurants, easy to access walks, and a tourist center for information. Buses run frequently if you want to go carless. Will be back! Hide

Our third stay at Applerigg in Hawkshead. A very comfortable, well appointed house, very close to the Hawkshead village amenities including the very popular Little Ice Cream Shop. With good walks to be had from the door, the car can have a holiday as well.

Great location, Hawkshead is lovely, quiet but with good pubs and shops. Cottage well-equipped, with lots of space, inc two living rooms. A push for a larger group (our kids are now adults) given there is just one bathroom, but fine for a family. Dog could jump the stone wall so needed to be supervised outside.

As soon as you arrive you feel relaxed and very welcome. The owners have thought of everything you will need for this property so you don't have to. Kitchen is very well equipped, and the bathroom actually had a bath you can fit in! It is perfectly placed on the edge of town, surrounded by walks and local attractions. Placed between two of the bestRead more lakes and close enough to other towns to visit. This is a property we would certainly visit again at any time of year. Hide

Absolutely loved our stay and stuck to being local by that very helpful wallpaper map! Probably explored much more by using that too - great idea! House had everything we needed and the location was spot on! The views of the sheep and the hills are something we will miss. Thank you!

Lovely cottage in a perfect location to explore the lakes and surrounding area. It was well equipped and very comfortable. Im not normally fascinated with sheep, but ended up watching the herdwick sheep every day they were in the field next to the cottage. If youre wanting to eat in the local pubs in Hawkshead, I would recommend booking ahead, as wRead moree couldnt get a reservation towards the end of our stay. Hide

We have been to Applerigg many times as it is in a good location has its own parking and is bright and easily worked. My only comments would be that after 9 years of visiting it would be nice to see some fresh curtains! Also missed a touch of festive spirit this year as no Christmas tree or any sign of the season. Sadly, Hawkshead itself is sufferiRead moreng the fate of many villages with closed shops and pubs, but the fells never disappoint so won't rule out visiting again. Hide
