Larch Cottage

Just one.

Word first class

Lovely little get away beautiful cottage Very unsure of garden if not sure what belonged to cottage no gate to keep pet in Mainly to look at this for listing But happy to stay again

This was my third visit to Larch Cottage and it was as always perfect.

Such a lovely peaceful spot and everything about the cottage is perfect. I’m sure I will be back next year.

Lovely little cottage perfect for couple and dog.

Great location for walks locally to Tarn Hows and into Hawkshead. Great holiday

Wow, to enter into this magical little cottage on Christmas Eve and find the fire on and a little Christmas tree twinkling was just the perfect start to a Christmas break.

This gem is so cosy and very well equipped, moreover, it's location is outstanding for walking from your doorstep, particularly on lower level footpaths. Highly recommend.

A warm and cosy cottage in a great location.

An ideal retreat for couples who enjoy walking, cycling and exploring this beautiful area of the Lake District.

Larch Cottage is set in a tranquil location.

It’s is very clean and comfortable with everything you need, and a welcoming surprise bottle of wine. I would definitely stay here again.

It's our 2nd time back at Larch cottage.

Cosy and clean cottage that has everything you need for a comfortable stay. It's position at the top of Hawkshead Hill makes it ideal to explore the wonderful Tarn Hows and a lovely walk into Hawkshead itself where there are some great pubs and shops.

A delightful little cottage between hawkshead (1 mile walk), tarn hows( 1 mile walk) and Coniston village and lake!

Beautifully clean and well appointed. You can walk out on to the fell with dog or take the car down to the lake!

Lovely compact cottage in a great location but not too far from the village

5* accomadation and location.

Short walk to the lovely village of Hawkshead with plenty of walks from here. Bus runs hourly by cottage to Coniston and Ambleside, and beyond by catching a further bus. Didn't use our car all week. Highly recommend.

This was my first time in this cottage but it won't be my last.

The cottage itself was all that I expected. The walk into Hawkshead is twenty minutes through delightful scenery. Walking from the cottage to Tarn How's is a circular delight and walking into Grizedale Forest to Moor Top from the cottage added to the variety. Highly recommended for the cottage facilities and absolutely ideal location.

fourth successive year for us, thank you and say no more

Lovely and cosy, extremely clean.

Great location. No issues what so ever. Wouldn't hesitate to return.

This is our second visit to this charming, cosy cottage, again we found it lovely and clean and well equipped.

It is so peaceful and the views to the owner’s garden are beautiful. There are lovely walks from the cottage down to Hawkshead and up to Tarn Hows. Our dog loves it there. The bottle of wine was very much appreciated. Thank you.

I had a wonderful week at Larch Cottage very peaceful extremely comfortable bed slept so well.

Lots of lovely walks from the cottage. Only 30 minutes walk to Tarn Hows which is lovely in the evening when the crowds have gone. I am seriously considering rebooking for October.

Another comfortable and relaxing stay at Larch Cottage - enjoying good memories from our previous visit, and making new ones!

Everything you could require for a truly memorable stay has been provided, and the location of the cottage means that it is easy to enjoy this wonderful corner of the Lakes.

As soon as we walked through the door, we felt at home.

Although small, the cottage had everything we needed on our holiday. It was also clean and comfortable and well-situated for visiting other parts of the Lake District. The WiFi didn't work for the first few days, but we weren't too worried about that. If we could change one thing about the place, it would be the entrance. There was no room to manoeuvre. Our coats got in the way of opening and closing the door and there was nowhere to leave our boots. It could do with a small porch or, failing that, a lockable garden store just outside the property. Small criticism though of an otherwise super property.

Enjoyed our time at Larch Cottage.

We stayed during a “cold snap” but the cottage was warm & cosy. Everything was there for a comfortable stay. It’s in a quiet location and we slept well. Well situated between Hawkshead and Coniston it’s a good base for walking the local fells and Grizedale Forest.

Had a great stay at Larch cottage, it was very clean and cosy.

Couldn't fault it

We enjoyed our stay very much well worth a second visit it was comfortable and warm well equipped plenty of places to put things we highly recommend it

If you want somewhere extremely quiet with great walks, and close enough to all Lake District attractions, this is the cottage to stay in.

It has a lovely old worldly cottage look. But with all modern technology. Loved this cottage would definitely book again

We had a wonderful stay at Larch Cottage.

It was quaint & peaceful, just what was needed after a very busy & stressful year. The cottage is spotlessly clean & so welcoming. There is lots of info too about places to go. Absolutely loved the fire & so did Tanky our dog. He loved seeing the cows appear daily too, although I'm not sure the cow's felt the same way. Lovely touch with the bottle of wine too, thank you.

A beautiful cosy cottage with everything you could ask for a comfortable holiday.

The cottage is situated about a mile outside of Hawkshead and there is a lovely walk across the fields to the pubs/ shops there. The kitchen was well equipped. Bedroom again had everything there. Bottle of wine chilling in the fridge. Perfect.

Very clean comfy cottage has everything you need

We had a lovely stay at Larch Cottage.

It was exactly as described and everything was lovely and clean. The cottage had everything we needed and we felt so relaxed and comfortable. Our dog was also happy staying here and there was plenty of space for her to relax. The cottage is in a great location being so close to hawskhead village and Ambleside. Thank you so much, we will definitelybe visiting again.

3rd year running we've stayed in June/July and facilities are always 1st rate, there's nothing not to like

Lovely little cottage.

Good location for Coniston and Ambleside areas. Had everything you could need. Kitchen was very well equipped. Bed was very comfortable. Nice to have the option of a shower or bath. Only negative is that we don't think it's practical to have the dehumidifier running all the time.

A lovely little cottage in a beautiful location.

Very clean and well furnished with a well equipped kitchen. Thank you to the owner for the lovely bottle of wine. In a good area for walking, there is a good bus service on the doorstep, therefore you don’t need to use your car as much. Hopefully we will be back again soon.

Larch Cottage is in a lovely tranquil location with a truly stunning view out the back into the garden with a stream / waterfall running through the owners side and from the bedroom you can see the hills and little lane .

It was very tidy and clean . We were a little surprised that there was no welcome pack apart from a bottle of wine in the fridge - a small thing but we would have appreciated some milk , teabags and coffee after a long journey . The other tip we would suggest to the owners would be the addition of a visitors book - there was nothing in the way of recommendations from people for places to visit / best cafes / walks etc Absolutely loved Hawkshead village a couple of miles by road or 1 mile to walk across the fields , Coniston and Grizedale were very accessable . Would recommend this lovely cottage to people that like a peaceful and quiet base

A beautiful, cosy cottage, well furnished and equipped with a really comfortable bed, but not very dog-friendly.

We were grateful that we had taken plenty of throws and towels to protect the carpets and we would have appreciated a room with a hard floor and a door in which to sleep our dog, The bathroom wasn't appropriate as we tend to need to use that during the night. It was, however, very convenient for visiting the south lakes and we had a very enjoyable week.

Lovely cottage in a great location.

Very clean and comfortable. Thank you for the bottle of wine that was waiting for us on our arrival! Only minor criticisms are that the WiFi was very slow, and a spare bin bag would have been handy. Overall though, we really enjoyed our stay at Larch Cottage.

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

We had a lovely Christmas break at Larch Cottage, it’s a beautiful cottage and it’s cosy and warm.

The kitchen is very well fitted and all the equipment makes for an easy break away. The gas fire in the lounge is superb. The area is beautiful and there are a lot of walks to do from the cottage. The atmosphere in Hawkshead is lovely and the pubs are friendly. The weather was awful on our break but that’s the Lake District.

An absolutely superb property which is better than the description!

Spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The cottage is furnished and kept to the highest standards and was a delight to stay at. It is perfectly placed to explore the area and the lovely village of hawkshead was so friendly and welcoming. I really can't recommend this cottage enough we had a fantastic stay and look forward to one day visiting again.

Having just enjoyed a week in Larch Cottage we found the accommodation and surroundings conducive to a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

The property was well maintained and spotlessly clean whilst being well presented with all requirements needed. As a holiday property for two I feel it more than accommodated our requirements and as such allowed us to fully enjoy our holiday. Nowhere was too far away being centrally positioned between Hawkshead, Coniston, and Ambleside and as such it’s positioning enabled us to have a relaxing holiday without being too distant from shops or restaurants etc. Also, the property was ideally positioned for walking from the cottage whilst leaving the car. We have returned from Larch Cottage fully refreshed and as such I would certainly rebook the accommodation for future holidays in the area and recommend the property to others as I already have done.

We had an enjoyable stay, the cottage was lovely and clean and it felt comfortable as soon as you walked in.

The kitchen was small but had everything we could want and more even an empty cupboard to put our groceries in. The cottage is in a quiet hamlet but so near to the Lakes and Hawkshead just a short drive away. I'm on crutches at this time but we found Miles without Stiles nearby and the National Trust (even though we aren't members) loan out a mobility scooter for a donation if you can. The trail you can use it on is lovely, even on a rainy day it was scenic. We had a small issue with the key lock but after talking to the owner a guy turned up in a few mins to fix it. Thankyou for a quiet peaceful stay in your lovely cottage.

The property was spotless with all you would want inside and outside for a very pleasant holiday stay.

We have just had a wonderful week in Larch Cottage.

The cottage is very well appointed throughout and in a great location. We will definitely be looking for a return visit, and would recommend Larch Cottage to everyone.

Has all the comforts of home.

Lovely location, one of our best yet

We had a lovely stay at Larch Cottage.

It's beautifully decorated throughout. All home comforts have been thought about with care and the cottage is a very comfortable home from home. There are lovely views from the cottage, which looks over the owners garden with a stream running through the garden. The kitchen is well equipped and the inclusion of dishwasher tablets was greatly appreciated. As has previously been mentioned the bath could have done with a bathmat, not sure if this was just forgotten. The other thing to mention is the dehumidifier that the owner asks to keep running. This isn't mentioned in the description. We had enough data but again the description does not mention that there is a data cap and streaming movies may be difficult. Having said that we had no issues watching Netflix or iPlayer. The location of the cottage is perfect. Good walks in all directions. The garden isn't enclosed so our dog could not be let out on his own, but again that wasn't a problem. None of the above really affected the enjoyment of our holiday and we highly recommend a stay at Larch Cottage. We recharged our batteries and would certainly return and have no hesitation in recommending it as a great place stay when exploring and walking the Lake District.

A lovely well equipped cottage that was perfect for our 5 day stay.

Very clean and very well equipped.

Would have liked a bath mat for safety on getting out of the bath.

First time at this lovely cottage but hopefully not my last.

Spotlessly clean with pretty furnishings. Dog and I enjoyed the gas stove, particularly after a wet day! Work space a bit limited in the kitchen but still managed. Thank you to the nice lady who came up to adjust the pressure in the new gas CH boiler. Would have appreciated a drying rack which I could stand in the bath for wet walking stuff as didn’t like to drape over the chairs. Look forward to coming again, perhaps next autumn. Many thanks.

Lovely cottage in a great location

Larch cottage is ideally situated to explore the wonderful countryside around Hawkshead Windemere and Coniston, the property is well maintained and nice and cosy benefiting from central heating with a lovely wood stove effect gas fire.

The cottage also has WiFi which we found very useful for searches and sending pictures home.

The cottage was well located, thoughtfully equipped and clean.

Unfortunately the Wi-Fi was barely useable and also restricted, this should have been highlighted in the listing. It would also have been nice to have some hand soap in the cottage.

Lovely cottage,well equipped,clean and comfortable.

nice garden and lots of parking space.The owners live next door and are very helpful. Glorious walks from the doorstep:- Tarn Hows, Grizedale Forrest, Coniston, Hawkshead.Etc: Everything was perfect for a fantastic holiday break. THANK YOU!

Lovely cottage.

Exceptionally clean, very comfortable bed, everything we needed. Ideally situated at the heart of the Lake District. We hope to stay here again.

Lovely cottage, home from home.

Larch Cottage is just perfect for enjoying the Lake District.

Just far enough out of town to be quiet and still whilst close enough to Hawkshead and Ambleside for outdoor clothing shops and tourist shopping. Little Baptist Church just 2 mins up the lane - so welcoming, can even bring your dog

Charming comfortable cottage in a great location.

We were very happy with our stay and will come again.

Excellent location and a beautiful cottage.

So clean and welcoming. Thank you.

It is a lovely cottage, very cosy and comfortable.

The proximity of the local bus route was a great bonus (able to use my bus pass) as were all the local walks. Every time I return to the Lake District I love it more.

We had a wonderful week in this cottage.

It had everything we needed and it was in a great location.

Our favourite place to stay in the Lake District is Larch cottage it is a beautiful traditionally built one bedroom cottage that's been updated internally to a high standard of decor, furnishings and fittings, everything we need for a comfortable stay.

We love it's location in Hawkeshead Hill a very tiny quiet village close to Hawkeshead and Coniston. Natural beauty all around and lovely walks. It is absolutely perfect for us and highly recommend ! Looking forward to our next holiday here already

Larch Cottage is a tiny, beautifully furnished cottage in a cracking spot in Hawkshead.

It is spotlessly clean with everything you need for a comfortable stay. There is an abundance of walks from the door, so we had no need to use the car at all. I would concur with another reviewer that a larger or reclining sofa would make it absolutely perfect. I would definitely recommend it and would visit again.

A lovely cozy little cottage.

Beautifully warm and with a well equipped kitchen for a self catering holiday. My only suggestion would be maybe a larger sofa or an arm chair in the living room to give a bit more relaxing space.

Immaculately clean & very cosy, everything provided.

Great for a couple ,just what you need , no fuss ,warm and cosy ,and a treat left in the fridge too .

Handy for amenities and all types of activities.most enjoyable stay thank you.

A wonderful cottage which was very clean and cozy.

We really enjoyed our stay and will be back in the future.

Intermitent wifi

The cottage was immaculately clean with everything you could need.

The location was peaceful with easy access to everywhere and lots of walks from the door. The local bus service was first class and the stop was literally outside the door. Would recommend to couples x

We stayed for a week with our little Jack Russell Jessica, in September.

The cottage is perfect with beautiful high end furnishings. Everything we could possibly need was provided including a bottle of wine in the fridge which was very welcome after a long drive! The bed was very comfortable and the shower was powerful, exactly what you need after a hard day walking. The kitchen has everything you need. Our dog settled instantly because Larch Cottage has a lovely homely feel. I would definitely recommend to anyone and will hopefully return in the not too distant future.

Larch Cottage was the perfect holiday retreat - the ideal location, surrounded by classic Lake District countryside with endless opportunities for enjoying the area right on the doorstep.

The cottage has been thoughtfully equipped and furnished, and is extremely comfortable. We would have welcomed having more cutlery in the kitchen - it would have reduced the use we made of the dishwasher during our stay.

A great location.

Great walks

Real gem of a holiday cottage in a great location with walks over the fields to Hawkshead and just down the road from Tarn Hows.

Superb garden and lovely ghyll flowing alongside the cottage. Nice original features in the cottage too. One to go back to. Very nice.

Larch cottage is a lovely traditional stone built detached cottage with many modern amenities for a comfortable stay, its situated in the quiet village of Hawkeshead Hill which is a great base for exploring Coniston, Ambleside area and many walks nearby.

We really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely rebook to stay again

The owner provided all you could possibly need for a week away.

Bed extremely comfortable. Very well run cottage.

Small cosy cottage situated just outside Hawkeshead but on a bus route so you could leave the car and get a bus to Windermere etc easily.

Very well equipped with Laura Ashley furniture and bedding. Gas fire and central heating which was nice and warm on a cold evening. Nice bottle of wine left in the fridge for us. A great little bolt hole for two.
