Full Details

Roger Ground Cottage is a delightful, double fronted traditional Lakeland cottage offering three bedrooms and two bathrooms with an abundance of character. Enjoying spacious accommodation with good size windows, allowing the natural light along with relatively high ceilings on the ground floor that provides a spacious yet cosy ambience. Set in a gently elevated position with attractive views towards Esthwaite Water, Latterbarrow, Claife and the surrounding countryside whilst enjoying a lawned garden with vantage point. The property has the distinct advantage of an easily maintained garden and private off road parking. The property is well presented with an abundance of characterful features with modern appointments, and although it is currently a main family residence the property could be used as a wonderful holiday home or would equally be suitable as an idyllic holiday letting property.

Hawkshead is a picturesque Lakeland village renowned for its literary connections to William Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter.  Roger Ground Cottage is approximately ½ mile south from the centre of Hawkshead village which has a variety of amenities including shops, restaurants, a church and primary school.  A footpath close by allows direct access to the village, and there is a variety of country walks straight from the door.
