Beautiful area

Guests love this home’s scenic location.
Tucked away on a working Lakeland farm near Hawkshead, this charming cottage invites couples and small families to experience countryside living at its most authentic. 1 mile away lies Hawkshead, a postcard-pretty village of cobbled lanes, whitewashed cottages and independent shops. Here you can visit the historic Beatrix Potter Gallery, housed in a 17th-century building.

The space
For waterside wanders, Esthwaite Water (3 miles) provides tranquil walking routes and scenic picnic spots, while the western shores of Lake Windermere (4 miles) promise rowing boat hire and leisurely cruises. Walkers will find plenty to tempt them, from the family-friendly ascent of Latterbarrow (2 miles) to the woodland trails and outdoor sculptures of Grizedale Forest (4 miles), a hit with younger explorers.

Inside, the cottage has an open-plan layout designed for sociable stays. The lounge gathers around a traditional open fire, creating a homely atmosphere for film nights or quiet reading, with a TV, DVD and CD player on hand. The dining area is set for long breakfasts and hearty suppers, while the kitchen is fully equipped for a self-catering stay, whether you're preparing a simple snack or a family feast. Upstairs, two comfortable bedrooms await: one double and one single, both thoughtfully finished in soft tones for restful nights after days spent outdoors. A bright bathroom with a shower over the bath awaits for a long soak at the end of the day.

Outside, a patio with garden furniture is a peaceful corner for coffee in the morning or supper fresh from the BBQ. To the front, a shared lawn provides additional space for children to play, and private parking ensures smooth arrivals and departures.
