The property

Haws Bank Cottage is a striking pet-friendly cottage located in Coniston, Cumbria, bringing together traditional charm with a carefully arranged layout and sweeping views across the surrounding landscape, making it well-suited to families or groups of friends exploring the Lake District.

Pull in and park with ease using the two off-road spaces, one positioned alongside the cottage and the other just across the quiet lane, before pausing to take in the exterior, where what appears to be three individual stone cottages has been thoughtfully combined into one spacious retreat.

Step through the door and into the kitchen and dining room, where exposed beams, stoned flooring, and a solid wooden dining table set the tone for social moments; take a seat and chat as meals come together, or settle at the breakfast bar while the gas hob, electric oven, dishwasher and wine chiller are put to use within the crisp white units, while the window seat offers a place to pause with a coffee as daylight filters in.

A pantry space leads neatly through to the utility and cloakroom, where patterned tiles add interest while providing a practical area for muddy boots and outdoor clothing.

Continue on into the sitting room, where exposed stonework frames an inglenook fireplace, drawing you towards the warmth of the woodburning stove beneath overhead beams; sink into the sofas or armchairs across the wooden flooring, switch on the mounted TV for an evening in, or open the doors and step outside.

Return to the far end of the kitchen and dining space, where glazed windows look out across the garden and a door leads outdoors, while a wooden staircase with a glass balustrade rises to the first floor.

Upstairs, the bedrooms offer inviting spaces to unwind, beginning with the master, reached via a small step, where soft carpet sits beneath your feet as exposed stone walls and beams bring character, skylights draw in natural light, and a mounted TV completes the room; the en-suite continues the attention to detail with patterned flooring, a skylight above, and bright touches of colour and artwork.

The double bedroom features exposed stone, a statement fireplace, beams overhead, a skylight, mounted TV and artwork that adds personality, while the twin room provides a bright setting with a vaulted ceiling, Velux window, exposed stonework, a useful hanging area, and its own TV for relaxed evenings.

The family bathroom completes the interior with patterned tiles, rustic beams, and a bath with a shower over, offering a choice between a quick refresh or a long soak.

Step into a beautifully designed outdoor kitchen and entertaining space, complete with a barbecue, patio heaters and atmospheric lighting.

Set beneath a characterful stone-walled shelter, this inviting area features comfortable seating, making it the perfect spot for al fresco dining, evening drinks, or relaxing with family and friends whatever the season.

A shop is just a short walk away, with a pub nearby and the lake within easy reach, while Coniston offers the Ruskin Museum, watersports on the lake, and routes towards the Old Man of Coniston, Hawkshead provides historic streets, the Beatrix Potter Gallery and traditional tearooms, and Ambleside brings Rothay Park, lake cruises on Windermere, and a variety of shops and eateries; further afield, within an hour you can explore Grizedale Forest with its woodland trails, sculptures and cycling routes, Windermere for boat trips, lakeside viewpoints and waterside cafés, and Kendal for its castle ruins, independent shops and local galleries.

Haws Bank Cottage offers character, space, and a superb Coniston setting.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £350.
