Great stay
Lovely cottage in a great location in the Lake District. The cottage was very well equipped. There was nothing that we needed that we could not find. The whole place looked like it was recently painted. The host responded quickly to any questions. No complaints at all.

The perfect family holiday
We are a family of four - 2 adults and 2 children (12 and 8 years old), plus the dog. We booked this property based on the location and excellent reviews here already, and we were not disappointed - it was nothing short of fantastic! The cottage itself is lovely, clean and well kept, not huge but certainly big enough for the 5 of us with a little garden at the front and back, and with everything guests could need thoughtfully provided. The location was also brilliant - Hawkshead is a gorgeous little village with lovely shops, cafes and pubs, and it is perfectly placed to explore the surrounding lakes and towns. Communication with the owner was also fantastic throughout, we couldn't recommend this place more, book it now!!

Lovely location
Perfect location within the village with plenty of walks on your doorstep. Although small Hawkshead offers several cafes and pubs which serve food. Everywhere was very dog friendly
