About this property
This lovely cottage on the edge of Hawkshead is a perfect ground floor, cosy retreat for couples who want to be able to leave the car on the drive and walk from the doorstep either to the hills or the village.
Hawkshead, itself described as one of the prettiest villages in the Lake District provides an excellent base for those wanting to explore the mountains and lakes or simply wander around the flower-filled lanes and cobbled yards or enjoy a pint and a meal in one of the local pubs.
The Lounge is a pretty room at the front on the property with a comfortable armchair and sofa of course welcoming the open fire. There is a dining table and chairs, flatscreen T.V., DVD and a selection of DVDs and board games, stereo and CD player.
The kitchen has been recently upgraded is compact but very well equipped; with built in electric cooker with overhead extractor, washing machine, microwave and fridge with large freezer compartment.
The bedroom is very pretty with a blue and white theme, double bed and pine furniture.
The stylish showerroom is fully tiled with shower, W.C, basin and heated towel rail.
The cottage is heated throughout by gas central heating.
Outside there is a shared garden and patio to the rear of the cottage with its own garden chairs and table and chimanea which catches the afternoon sun - an ideal place to eat “al fresco” or to simply unwind at the end of the day.
There is off road parking for one car at the rear of the garden.

Enjoyed a 4 night stay at this lovely cottage. This is an ideal cottage for 2 people. It was clean and well equipped. The owners have made sure that everything is available for an enjoyable stay and it is one of the nicest we have stayed in. The availability of the parking place at the rear is a real bonus in Hawkshead with parking limited in this small village. The garden was lovely, even in January, with bird feeders and a small grassed area. All in all it was perfect for our short break and we thank the owners for making it available for use. The letting agents Hideaways provided a very efficient service and their information book at the cottage was full of valuable information. We would love to stay again when the time comes.

The cottage was ideal for our needs - compact kitchen but quite sufficient for a couple with one small dog! Spotlessly clean, well equipped and in an excellent position for all the village amenities. Very comfortable living room but a little cold in the toilet/shower room. We especially appreciated the generous supply of logs and coal for the open fire. Would definitely stay at Angel Cottage again!
