  • "We have just returned from our holiday at foresters cottage, the cottage is very comfortable, beds are extremely comfy, the cottage was spotless on arrival and we look forward to a return trip hopefully next year as our son lives in kendal."

    We have 2 dogs which enjoyed their stay, lovely touches were the bird food that we topped the feeders on the front lawn, we had a spotted woodpecker and lots of other birds to watch from the living room window. The only thing which I would suggest is in the king bedroom there is no socket by the dressing table so as to use hair dryer, it may be a good idea to have one fitted or an extension need so u can plug in hair drier and use where the mirror is. Other than that everything is perfect, one of the nicest places we have stayed. Thankyou owners of Forresters Cottage. X

About the location

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.
