Nov 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We stayed here with extended family for an 80th birthday gathering. The cottage is plenty big enough to host 10, with space for everyone to have some private time when needed. Perfectly positioned in Hawkshead, it was just what we wanted. Really well stocked kitchen and the pool table was a huge hit with the kids. ##### Elizabeth G.
