    “Overall, the place was brilliant.”

    It accommodated us all comfortably with plenty of room for people to find space when they needed it. The bath robes were a nice touch. A shower rather than bath in the shared bathroom would have been nice, but people ended up using each other's bathrooms when they wanted a shower. There was plenty of hot water at all times. The kitchen had enough of the things we needed, and it was great to have multiple kettles and coffeee makers. There was a lovely selection of very nice things in the welcome ...

    It accommodated us all comfortably with plenty of room for people to find space when they needed it. The bath robes were a nice touch. A shower rather than bath in the shared bathroom would have been nice, but people ended up using each other's bathrooms when they wanted a shower. There was plenty of hot water at all times. The kitchen had enough of the things we needed, and it was great to have multiple kettles and coffeee makers. There was a lovely selection of very nice things in the welcome basket, which were much appreciated. The estate ofice was very helpful when we had any problems and responded very quickly. All in all everyone had a great holiday. There are some minor things that could be better- BBQ tools would be nice and some of the kitchen utensils are a bit worn, but not unusable. The only real issue we had was opening the doors. The door handles were stiff and because of the shape they were very dfficult to turn and the doors are very heavy. Several of us could not open the doors at all.

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.
