Town: 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. Visitors can wander the wealth of tiny alleyways, thoroughfares, archways and courtyards between the whitewashed 17th century houses. There are many pleasant inns, teashops, guest houses and gift shops in the village, as well as the Beatrix Potter Gallery, which houses an annually changing exhibition of the famous author’s illustrations and stories. The other famous Hawkshead enthusiast, William Wordsworth, attended the Old Grammar School in 1779-87, which still stands today, and you can visit the building where the Lakeland poet developed his love of the form, and even see the desk into which he scratched his name as a small boy! Newby Bridge is ten miles away and offers attractions such as the Aquarium of the Lakes and Windermere Lake Cruises, sailing daily between Ambleside, Bowness and Lakeside. With stunning scenery and numerous attractions within easy touring distance, Hawkshead is in an ideal location at any time of the year.

Located in Ambleside, this vacation home is on a lake. Hawkshead Grammar School and Beatrix Potter Gallery are cultural highlights, and some of the area's activities can be experienced at Windermere Ferry and Windermere Golf Club. Looking to enjoy an event or a game while in town? See what's happening at Ambleside Climbing Wall or Cartmel Racecourse. Fishing offers a great chance to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with rock climbing, hiking/biking trails, and cycling nearby.
