Coach House Cottage, Hawkshead

Arrival day: Saturday | Sleeps: 2

VisitEngland 4 star gold rated property

All the elegance and grace of an English county house is bundled into this dreamy romantic cottage in Near Sawrey, a small village between Hawkshead and Lake Windermere. Only a few hundred yards from Beatrix Potter's Hill Top home, and a 2 minute walk from the famous Tower Bank Arms, Coach House Cottage takes a sublime location within the landscaped gardens of a peaceful country guesthouse. Step inside and you'll fall in love with the unique presentation and quirky upside-down layout; enter into the lush bedroom suite with romantic brass bed and luxury en-suite, then step up into the 'hideaway' living space with dramatic vaulted ceiling and a stunning cathedral window. Sumptuous leather furnishings, Villeroy Bosch fittings... all part of this perfectly-formed romantic retreat.

Accommodation in detail
An old oak door leads into the romantic double bedroom, with oak floor, brass bed and luxury en-suite bathroom. An oak staircase leads up to the vaulted living space, with stylish fitted kitchen, electric fire stove, leather furnishings and a dramatic cathedral window providing views across open countryside towards Grizedale Forest. The shared gardens are stunning and peaceful, with plenty of quiet corners and vantage points to explore.

Location
A holiday cottage in Near Sawrey, a peaceful village between Hawkshead, Esthwaite Water and the western shores of Lake Windermere, places you at the heart of the Lakes and near to Beatrix Potter's former home at Hill Top. You'll soon see why she was inspired by the spectacular countryside scenes, and by the tranquility of untouched Esthwaite Water (fictional home of 'Jeremy Fisher') which lies between Near Sawrey and Hawkshead village. There are glorious landscapes to explore around Near Sawrey; Esthwaite Water, the spectacular Tarn Hows walk, Grizedale Forest for walking, cycling and sculpture trails. Walkers will be very well-placed to enjoy some of the most famous walks in the Lake District.
Hawkshead village is a close-by delight, scattered with traditional Lakeland cottages and blessed with a delightful car-free village centre offering shops, tea rooms, restaurants and pubs. Stock up your kitchen at 'The Honeypot' delicatessen - 'a goldmine of Lakeland goodies'! Also within easy reach are Ambleside, at the north end of Lake Windermere, and Bowness village via the car-ferry crossing Lake Windermere.
