"We had an amazing stay at Jenny’s cottage."
The perfect space and location for a half term escape with the dog. We had one issue on the first day but the maintenance team and out of ours contact worked speedily to sort it out (and on a Sunday!). That I really appreciated and allowed us to continue our holiday in the best way. We loved: the routes from the doorstep (to Grizedale forest, Ambleside and Tarn Howse); the space available in the property and the privacy; how well stocked the kitchen was there was EVERYTHING you would need to cook. It made it a comfortable home away from home for the whole week. Also the dog friendly Red Lion pub, a very well stocked Coop and local deli made sure we never went hungry or needed to drive elsewhere to restock. We didn’t move the car the whole week. The only criticism is we couldn’t find a pen to write in the visitors book.

HAWKSHEAD
Ambleside 5.1 miles; Kendal 17.4 miles.
The picturesque village of Hawkshead still retains the charm and character that so endeared it to its most famous residents - William Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter. Visitors can wander the wealth of tiny alleyways, thoroughfares, archways and courtyards between the whitewashed 17th century houses. There are many pleasant inns, teashops, guest houses and gift shops in the village, as well as the Beatrix Potter Gallery, which houses an annually changing exhibition of the famous author’s illustrations and stories. The other famous Hawkshead enthusiast, William Wordsworth, attended the Old Grammar School in 1779-87, which still stands today, and you can visit the building where the Lakeland poet developed his love of the form, and even see the desk into which he scratched his name as a small boy! Newby Bridge is ten miles away and offers attractions such as the Aquarium of the Lakes and Windermere Lake Cruises, sailing daily between Ambleside, Bowness and Lakeside. With stunning scenery and numerous attractions within easy touring distance, Hawkshead is in an ideal location at any time of the year.
