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.
