About this property
Smithy Cottage - sleeps 6, dog friendly, central in Hawkshead with parking
Smithy Cottage, set in the popular village of Hawkshead and much-loved for its historical links to William Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter, truly brings something for all.
Entering through the neat courtyard-style garden with comfortable patio furniture, the farmhouse inspired kitchen awaits. The well-equipped kitchen provides everything you could need for a self-catering stay and the large dining table is the perfect place to host a home-cooked breakfast or an evening of family games.
The focal point of this Lakeland cottage is without doubt the recently refurbished lounge. With subtle hues, soft furnishings and comfortable seating for the whole family, this cosy space creates the perfect home from home atmosphere. Kicking back and relaxing has never been as easy with modern day conveniences to hand.
After a day on the fells, you’ll find two sizeable double bedrooms on the first floor, both having access to the shower room on the same level. A third twin bedroom is located on the second floor and is conveniently located opposite the house bathroom, featuring the star of the show – a deep bath. The perfect place to soak away those aches and pains.
GROUND FLOOR
Farmhouse style kitchen with dishwasher, microwave, electric oven, induction hob, fridge, freezer, washing machine, and large dining table with seating for six.
Lounge with comfortable, deep cushioned seating, TV, DVD player, gas fire and access to the patio.
Courtyard-style patio with seating for six people.
FIRST FLOOR
Master double bedroom with TV and ample storage.
Second double bedroom with TV and ample storage.
Shower room with WC, basin, and electric shower.
SECOND FLOOR
Twin bedroom with TV (advised to take caution with the sloped ceilings).
Family house bathroom with WC, basin, and handheld shower over the bath.
