Find My Favourite Holiday Cottages in Hawkshead
A prettier Lake District village than Hawkshead would be hard to imagine. With its higgledy-piggledy cobbled alleys lined with whitewashed holiday cottages, it’s no wonder this ancient community has become such a favourite among visitors. Cars are banned from the village centre, making a holiday cottage in Hawkshead a particularly tranquil base from which to explore the spectacular surrounding countryside. Nestled in the glorious vale of Esthwaite, this former Medieval wool town is perfectly located for walking, climbing, sailing and wildlife-watching in the heart of the Lake District National Park. Much loved by Beatrix Potter and William Wordsworth, Hawkshead has plenty to offer, from cosy tearooms and welcoming pubs to unique gift shops.
