Moss Beck offers guests a high quality of accommodation, providing the perfect cottage for either small families or a super romantic retreat for couples.

The cottage lies at Outgate, a small hamlet a mile north of Hawkshead, perfect for exploring Central Lakes where you are never far from big fell and water. After your days out you can enjoy a pint at the old Outgate Inn, or step a little further afield down to Hawkshead with its four good pubs. Here you will also find a grocer, post office and chemist, book shop and cafes, along with walking gear outlets and some good arts and crafts shops.

From the property you are a short walk or drive to some of the best walks and rambles. Tarn Hows is a picture perfect little water, easy for most. The Grizedale Forest offers a long day out exploring the many trails, either by foot or mountain bike. Over the fell you have Coniston Water, where you can hire boats, and at Esthwaite water you can take a day fishing for your supper.

Moss Beck

From the moment you open the front door and step into the elegant hall, you know that you are in a special cottage. Light floods in through deep set windows onto a flag stoned floor, setting up a warm glow in the dark wood panelled wall and crowded beams overhead.

The sitting room is all crisp white walls, pale carpeted floor, with a wonderful arrangement of armchairs, sofas and soft lighting, enhanced by the glow of an open fire to fit your every mood. The kitchen is a beautiful blend of contemporary style and solid old world charm with all mod cons, adding up to a room in which cooking and eating is pure pleasure.

From the hall the stone flag stairway takes you to the two bedrooms. The main double bedroom has huge oak beams set into the wall, forming a dramatic sculptural canopy effect. The second bedroom is small and cosy with the option of a double bed or unzipping to offer 2 small singles.

The bathroom has a large bath with chrome overhead shower stand, basin and WC. There is a further WC downstairs

The garden is well laid out with a cool patio near the kitchen, and a flagstone path leading to a sunny paved area at the centre of the garden, looking onto a meadow.

Moss Beck is very much a cottage for adults where it will offer you a most special, memorable time in the Lakes.
