The King’s Arms Hawkshead Launches “Alice’s Cottage”

A Beautifully Restored Lake District Retreat in the Heart of Hawkshead
King's Arms Hawkshead has announced the launch of Alice’s Cottage, a beautifully renovated Grade II listed one bedroom property located in the centre of the picturesque village of Hawkshead.

Positioned on the village’s historic main square, Alice’s Cottage combines timeless Lakeland charm and comfort. Carefully restored by local craftsmen to a high specification, the property retains much of its original character while offering guests a welcoming and luxurious base from which to explore the Lake District.

Perfectly situated just moments from The King’s Arms, the cottage places guests within easy walking distance of Hawkshead’s much-loved pub, tea rooms, delicatessens and independent shops. Guests can also enjoy immediate access to some of the area’s most scenic walking routes directly from the doorstep.

For those wishing to explore further afield, the popular Lake District destinations of Ambleside, Grasmere, Bowness-on-Windermere, Windermere and Newby Bridge are all within a short drive.

As part of the stay, guests at Alice’s Cottage will also enjoy breakfast each morning at King's Arms Hawkshead, adding to the relaxed and hospitable experience for which the inn is renowned.

“We are thrilled to introduce Alice’s Cottage as part of The King’s Arms offering,” said Jo McGowan owner of The King’s Arms Hawkshead. “The property perfectly captures the charm and heritage of Hawkshead while providing guests with a beautifully finished place to stay in one of the Lake District’s most sought-after villages.”
