Home to the Beatrix Potter Gallery, an array of independent shops, local pubs, cafes and restaurants, it’s easy to lose yourself while browsing or stopping to sample delicious food and local ales. The only ‘cat café’ in Cumbria resides in the village, where visitors can pop in for a pint and keep the owner’s rescue cats company for a while!

The English Lake District is an outdoor enthusiast’s dream, with activities ranging from hiking and trekking to canyoning, caving, mountain biking, climbing, water sports and fishing, guests will never be stuck for things to do.

There are abundant forest trails, lakeside treks and pathways leading to cascading waterfalls which have existed for centuries. The famous Cumbrian Way begins on the shores of nearby Coniston Water and Grizedale Forest is a popular spot with nature lovers, hikers and mountain bikers from all over the country.

The quaint town of Ambleside is a mere 10-minute drive from The Roost at Hawkshead. Visit Stock Ghyll waterfall, take a cruise on the Lake Windermere and don’t leave without a trip to Old Bank House Chocolate Shop for some yummy treats.

Grasmere, a little further north is famous for its custom-made Lakeland perfumes and homemade gingerbread. Enjoy the latter with morning coffee overlooking the water, before making an inspirational stop at William Wordsworth’s Dove Cottage at Rydal Mount.

Accessibility - the Loft has low door heights, the main entrance and door into the bedroom both are 158cm (a standard door is 198cm) this is due to the period nature of the property as a converted barn.
