About this property
This charming mid-terrace cottage near Windermere nestles in a row of four in the main courtyard on the Graythwaite Estate. Perfectly located within easy reach of the site's fabulous facilities including an indoor swimming pool and children's play area, this Windermere cottage makes a perfect base for families to enjoy the idyllic setting and explore this beautiful area.
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. Cars are banned from the village, leaving visitors free to wander the wealth of tiny alleyways, thoroughfares, archways and courtyards between the whitewashed 17th century houses. With stunning scenery and numerous attractions within easy touring distance, Hawkshead is in an ideal location at any time of the year.
