The Apartment, Betty Fold

About this property

Hawkshead 1.5 miles. This comfortable ground floor apartment, forming part of the owner’s home and is surrounded by beautiful countryside in the rural hamlet of Hawkshead Hill, just a 20 minute walk from Hawkshead and Tarn Hows, in the heart of the Lake District National Park. Comfortably appointed throughout to provide lovely holiday accommodation, this apartment is ideal for couples and families who wish to enjoy this peaceful location, which is rich in wildlife, with exceptional views at every turn. There are two bedrooms, one with the luxury of an en-suite bathroom, the other with an adjoining dressing room, and an open plan living area with a kitchen, dining and sitting area. Outside are three acres of gardens, which are shared with the owners, with lots of secluded corners where you can settle in the summer sunshine and admire the far-reaching views. There are beautiful walks available directly from the property, or why not wander down to Hawkshead and enjoy the lovely shops and pubs, or hike to the scenic Tarn Hows and explore the beautiful Lakeland fells? This lovely cottage is a perfect, well-located base for exploring the Lake District, and can be enjoyed all year round.

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.
