    "Just wow! A stunning house that is every bit as lovely as the photos on the website promised."

    The facilities were perfect for our family stay - the hot tub was a firm favourite with the kids and the cosy rooms and comfy beds ensured a good nights sleep after busy days exploring the area. A great and peaceful location between Windermere and Coniston, which we made the most of, with days on the lakes. Morning coffee was drunk admiring the lovely views over Windermere! Big thanks to Mark, the host, who was so helpful answering our questions and sharing info on the area to ensure we had a fab holiday.

    ""Great home, we all loved it."

    " Lovely rooms, a superb open plan kitchen and cosy living room. Terrific location, very quiet, walks and cycle tracks from the door but within easy reach to the whole of the lakes. We've stayed in several properties in the lakes and this is a very special home, hope to back to Hawkrigg farm. Thanks for your attention to detail Mark!

    "An Excellent property to thank whole family on my Retirement so wanted something 'special' which this lived up to fully, with very little found wanting."

    All facilities used to the full including hot tub modern kitchen (as we ate in most days) but also did eat at Cuckoo Brow Inn a short walk away on a couple of nights, which we would also recommend. Host did provide a 'Meet and greet' on our Arrival, which was most welcome and overall would highly recommend (especially for a special occasion) Great views towards Windermere to front and Coniston Falls to rear giving instant 'weather update' We did benefit from great weather most of the week we were there, but accommodation would suit any weather. Property very pieceful whcih was ideal (Windermere area OK but the quiet was just what we were after) and little traffic even though close to Ferry road Close to Hill Top and other attractions with many 'Walk' options also nearby

    Great location for walking and views. The owner Mark takes really good care of his home and we couldn’t fault anything. The only downside is that we couldn’t stay longer

The property

Elevated above the tranquil western shores of Lake Windermere in a rural setting, yet close enough to enjoy the amenities of Hawkshead and Ambleside. Hawkrigg Farm is a luxurious detached country house with space for ten guests.

The residence has been refurbished to the highest possible standard and offers incredible lake views from almost every room. Enter the property through the back door, where outdoor gear can be left in a convenient boot room.

Step into the first of two living rooms to relax in front of a cosy fire, the second sitting room features sumptuous furnishings and a second Smart TV.

A modern kitchen / diner provides the perfect space to prepare celebratory meals, which guests can enjoy around a large family dining table.

Lazy mornings can be enjoyed in this social space with a Nespresso coffee machine and breakfast bar, if the sun is shining step through French doors and out in the furnished garden.

A convenient utility room provides all the appliances you need for a self-catering holiday.

Head up to the first floor where five luxurious bedrooms offer spectacular views across England’s largest lake.

Four of the bedrooms feature king size beds whilst the fifth is presented as a twin.

Three of the king size bedrooms are complemented with en-suite shower rooms and the first floor is completed with a spacious family bathroom. Outside parking is provided for five cars making this property a brilliant get-away for large families and groups of friends.

To the front of the residence a pretty lawned garden leads to another highlight of the property – a large hot tub set under a gazebo. Located in a truly rural location there are plenty of walking routes surrounding the residence and the peaceful hamlets of Near Sawrey and Cunsey are close by.

Jump onto the car ferry across Lake Windermere to explore the bustling village of Bowness with its shops, restaurants and attractions and take the short drive to Hawkshead – one of the most charming villages in the Lake District.

Families will enjoy a day trip to Lakeside, where a steam train awaits for a magical ride through Lakeland countryside and an aquarium provides great rainy day entertainment. Standing pride of place above beautiful Lake Windermere, Hawkrigg Farm is a superb country house for large families and groups of friends looking to celebrate a special occasion. Hawkrigg Farm does not welcome stag or hen parties.
