Tucked away on a quiet lane in the centre of Hawkshead village, Corner House is a picture-perfect chocolate box cottage ideal for couples looking for a romantic Lake District escape. Thoughtfully restored, it blends original features with modern comforts, creating a warm and welcoming base in one of the region’s most iconic villages.
Inside, you’ll find exposed beams, whitewashed stone walls, and a wood-burning stove for cosy evenings in. The living area flows into a well-equipped kitchen with everything you need for easy self-catering. Just off the lounge, the practical utility and boot room is perfect for wiping muddy paws, drying coats and boots, or cleaning up after a walk – an especially handy feature for guests with dogs and those here to explore.
Upstairs, the light-filled king-size bedroom overlooks Hawkshead’s rooftops, while the generous bathroom is a standout feature. Designed with relaxation in mind, it offers a freestanding bath and a large walk-in rainfall shower – ideal for soaking tired legs after a day exploring nearby Grizedale Forest or Esthwaite Water.
Corner House is one of the best dog-friendly cottages in Hawkshead, welcoming up to two dogs. A parking permit for the nearby village car park is included, and with pubs, cafés, shops, and walking routes just a few steps away, you can settle in and explore without needing the car.
Whether you're seeking a romantic Lake District cottage, a log burner hideaway for two, or a well-located base for scenic walks with your dog, Corner House offers charm, comfort, and unbeatable village-centre convenience in the South Lakes.

Lovely cottage in a lovely village
We had a great stay at Corner House. It had everything we needed for a weekend in the Lakes and we would happily have stayed for longer. We didn’t know Hawkshead but it’s a great village to stay in with a great selection shops, cafes and pubs to visit.

Perfect cottage to explore The Lakes
A home from home, this perfect cottage has everything you need; close to the Co-Op, local pubs and shops, just 10 minutes from Ambleside and all the comforts you have in your own home. Lovely woodburner, use of washing machine and dishwasher, roll top bath and utility room for your dog and dirty shoes/clothes!

This was a lovely comfortable cottage for two people. There was an area for wet gear although we were fortunate with the weather, the bed was very comfortable and although no outside space for our dogs just around the corner was a very quiet country lane to walk them in a morning, it was so peaceful, and just around the corner from the Honeypot (you can order welcome packs from them). The kitchen was modern and although quite small it had everything you needed including salt and pepper, a small bottle of oil, tea bags, instant coffee and sugar, which we didn’t use as had take our own, but good to know for next time and there was also hand wash provided. The only suggestions would be to have a bed that can be made into a twin for a small charge. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.
Cottage was perfect
We had a lovely week in Hawkshead, a great village to stay with walks on your doorstep and plenty of places to eat and drink within 5 minutes walk of your front door. Cottage was clean and perfect for us with extra muddy boot area for dog. Everything we needed was provided. Would stay again.

Fabulous accommodation
Had a lovely 5 night stay for our honeymoon. The accommodation was fabulous! Really clean, great amenities and thankfully very cool in the middle of a heatwave! The bathroom was great and kitchen had everything we needed. Parking was really easy in the local car park, and nearby for a short time to unpack the car. Lots of lovely pubs...

Great spot
A great spot for myself and dog for a quick weekend getaway. The mud room was fantastic for the pup. Bathroom was really large and relaxing. I will note that aside from hand wash, no other toiletries provided (this may have been listed and I just missed it!!). Not a big deal as co-op very nearby but figured worth noting....

Just wandered out from the front door for some lovely walks. Several delightful dinner spots in the square as well. I’d happily stay here again!

Cosy cottage
Very cosy well equipped cottage in a great central position in the village but very quiet. Ideal for exploring surrounding country side. Lots of walks from the cottage without needing to use the car. Amazing bathroom and very comfortable bed!

A beautiful stay
Corner House lived up to our expectations. Cosy cottage, small but great for us 2 and a small dog. Everything we needed and a very comfy bed. Some water damage in bathroom but we loved the rainwater shower! Great position in the middle of Hawkshead. No need to drive out as plenty of walks nearby, but we enjoyed exploring. Beautiful...
