Wonderful week at Primrose cottage. Hawkshead is a perfect location to explore the Lakes. We had our dog with us and not only is the cottage wonderfully equipped, every pub and cafe is dog friendly so made it a really welcoming and easy stay. The cottage was very clean and well equipped. We can’t wait to come again.

Lovely cottage in a great location in the Lake District. The cottage was very well equipped. There was nothing that we needed that we could not find. The whole place looked like it was recently painted. The host responded quickly to any questions. No complaints at all.

We are a family of four - 2 adults and 2 children (12 and 8 years old), plus the dog. We booked this property based on the location and excellent reviews here already, and we were not disappointed - it was nothing short of fantastic! The cottage itself is lovely, clean and well kept, not huge but certainly big enough for the 5 of us with a little garden at the front and back, and with everything guests could need thoughtfully provided. The location was also brilliant - Hawkshead is a gorgeous little village with lovely shops, cafes and pubs, and it is perfectly placed to explore the surrounding lakes and towns. Communication with the owner was also fantastic throughout, we couldn't recommend this place more, book it now!!

Just perfect!
A wonderful ‘home from home’ base for a fantastic week. Clean, spacious with everything you need, as well as very thoughtful touches (eg, tea, coffee, soap, hand sanitisers and even bubble bath for a soak after a long walk in the hills!). Quiet location with lovely table and chairs outdoors at the front and rear to enjoy breakfast or lunch ‘al fresco’ in the sun.
Really helpful and clear communications with the owner.
Thank you so much - we loved it!

Post Lockdown Getaway
We felt so lucky and grateful to be able to book this house after lockdown and when there was very little availability and what there was was so expensive. Thanks. The house is comfortable and well equipped to handle walkers and their dogs. We had all we needed in the kitchen to cook well for ourselves. With two adults and two big kids we didn’t feel cramped. The location is really convenient for pubs, cafes and the village shop as well as walks from the house and easy access to a good road to other parts of the Lake District. It was just what we needed.

Ideal Location and Great Cottage
The cottage is ideally located within a few minutes walk from shops and local pubs and eating places with most, if not all, pubs and eating places nearby are dog-friendly.
The cottage was spotlessly clean and very well equipped. If you are a dog owner then Tracey, the cottage owner, has thought of everything to make life comfortable and stress-free for dogs and owners alike.
The dog shower in the rear garden came in particularly handy when our dog came back from a walk wet and covered in mud.
The rear garden is cosy little paved area with a shed, seating area some large plant and herb pots. We were able to let the dog out even in the wet weather without fear of him coming back inside covered in mud.
Overall, excellent and highly recommended.

Lovely cottage in a great location
This was our first trip to the Lake District, but it definitely won't be our last. Arriving at the cottage, we were impressed with how spacious it was, and found it to be very well equipped, with everything we needed for our stay.
Although we didn't bring a dog, it does seem to be ideal for those that would, with everything in place to make their stay comfortable. As mentioned by another member, although this cottage clearly welcomes dogs, you wouldn't know it as the place was spotlessly clean with no hint of dog smells/hairs.
As for location, you couldn't ask for better. It's a 30 second walk to the center of Hawkshead, which has 4 pubs and numerous cafes, along with a variety of other shops including a local co-op for day to day items. And there are plenty of walks nearby to keep you busy. There was a good selection of books at the cottage to provide some inspiration if you haven't already made plans.
I would definitely recommend this cottage without hesitation.

Pretty and Comfortable Cottage
We loved staying and relaxing in this lovely cottage well equipped with everything one would need for a perfect holiday. We particularly liked the pretty bedrooms with very comfortable beds, two bathrooms meaning that as two couples we didn't have to share, and the back garden full of charming detail. We were also impressed with how dog-friendly this cottage is and yet being completely dog hair and dog smell free. The location of the cottage just a couple of hundred yards away from the centre of the village is also something we enjoyed very much. We do hope to stay at this cottage again, and highly recommend it to anyone.

Cosy cottage.
Lovely cosy cottage, very comfortable with everything one needs. Comfy beds and pleasant aspect, No passing traffic and very easy access to the village. Sitting out area at the back is private and pleasant, and for dog lovers it is perfect.. Really enjoyed our stay, If there is any improvement to be made I would say upgrading the tv and free view . I understand the idea that not everyone wants to watch tv when they are on holiday but for those of us who like to walk all day and relax at the cottage at night it would make a difference, especially as the Tour de France was on at the time ! In fact the pic of the small TV in the advert was almost a deal breaker when I was looking for somewhere to book And in fact we could not get the pic to fill the full screen .so smaller than small. The old sky box is redundant. But other than that we loved it ,

A delightful cottage in a picturesque village
This was our first experience with Owners Direct. Before our arrival the owner had replied to us about a question we had as we were taking our dog - very good service!
The cottage was just a minute or so from the centre of the village with all it's amenities, restaurants, shops etc
The wording of the description of the cottage didn't really do justice to what we found. Far above our expectations, it was very well equipped for both human and canine visitors. The cottage was scrupulously clean on our arrival, which is so important to us, and with no lingering doggy smells.
A very well equipped kitchen, two very comfortable bedrooms one en suite, a cosy lounge and dining area, and a further family bathroom. A child/dog gate on the stairs to prevent dogs going upstairs.
Outside to the rear was a comfortable, fully enclosed dog friendly patio area with comfortable seating and other facilities - boot/dog washing shower, BBQ stand and shed.
To the front was a car parking space and a small seating area.
The location of this property was perfect for walking, with easy access to a number of local walks, and we left our car parked most days and went out on foot.
Tarn Hows was just a couple of miles away and Lake Windermere at Wray Castle, a pleasant walk of about 3.5 miles. Grizedale forest and Beatrix Potter properties are all within walking distance.
A comprehensive selection of local guide books and maps were available.
There was almost nothing that the owner hadn't thought to provide to make our stay comfortable, and we are already looking to book next year.

A spotlessly clean and very well equipped cosy cottage in a great location
This is a cosy cottage in a perfect spot on the edge of Hawkshead village, within walking distance of the centre and of some fantastic walks. The cottage is spotlessly clean and wonderfully well equipped. Perfect for bringing dogs along too, the outdoor shower being ideal after long muddy walks. Many thanks Tracey for a great stay.

Un corrage très cosy comme chez Béatrix Potter
Nous avons beaucoup apprécié ce cottage parfaitement situé dans le merveilleux village d'Hawkshead, si cher à Béatrix Potter. Il est situé dans un quartier très calme et à 2 pas du centre touristique et toujours prêt de la campagne.
L'équipement du cottage ainsi que son confort sont excellents et permettent le repos attendu.
