    “We had a great time at Larch cottage.”

    It was very clean and well presented. And the bed was comfortable. Lovely location. The only downside was, there was no table and chairs outside. We like our morning coffee outside. On the pictures and in the description, table and chairs are seen and mentioned. Not there in reality. This was the only downside. We will be coming back soon though

    Thank you for your review of Larch Cottage, I am pleased you enjoyed your stay. I am sorry about the lack of garden furniture while you were in the cottage. We actually have a set for both areas of the garden, but owing to therain and gales we have had, it was all put away in the garage . We do encourage guests to ask if they have additional requirements. With kind regards, Anne Property Owner

The property

Nestling in the tiny hamlet of Hawkshead Hill midway between picturesque Hawkshead village and the stunning Tarn Hows, guests who choose Larch Cottage will have the best of both worlds right in the heart of Beatrix Potter country with wonderful walks and rambles from the door and handy for the good local shopping, choice pubs and tea shops in nearby Hawkshead. Guests will love this detached 'sleeps two' in its romantic setting away from the madding crowds so if you are a couple looking for a quiet retreat right in the heart of the Lake District this could be the one for you. Come in any season. Don't miss the forest trails in nearby Grizedale Forest ideal for mountain biking, rambling and picnics with wonderful views. A visit to Tarn Hows is a must with its stunning year-round scenery, gentle trails around the tarn and quiet beauty. Hawkshead Hill is perfectly placed for visits to all parts of the National Park and just a short drive from some of our finest high peaks including the Langdale Pikes, Coniston Old Man and Wetherlam. Accommodation: Entrance hallway with room to store your outdoor gear. The cosy sitting room has comfy sofa, dining table, flat screen TV, log effect gas fire and free Wi-Fi.

About the location

AMBLESIDE

Grasmere 4.4 miles; Windermere 4.7 miles; Keswick 16.7 miles.

Lying at the northern tip of Lake Windermere, England’s largest lake, Ambleside makes a superb base for touring the central Lakes, with Grasmere and the Langdale Valley just a short drive away. There is plenty to do here - cruises, boat trips and watersports on Lake Windermere itself and numerous shops, restaurants and pubs in the village to suit all tastes. On the lakeside at Waterhead, the parkland offers lovely views down the lake and a short stretch of beach, whilst a walk in the other direction, following Stock Ghyll through woodland, will bring you to the entrancing waterfall of Stock Ghyll Force. Along with the Lake and the great walking on offer, Ambleside is also famous for its annual rushbearing ceremony and the diminutive 17th century “Bridge House” - one of the most photographed buildings in the Lake District and now the National Trust Information Centre.

Note: Sorry, no children.
