Hawkshead
Just north of Esthwaite Water, Hawkshead is a pretty market village marked by a jumbled collection of stone houses, old arches and squares that enchanted both William Wordsworth – who went to school here – and later Beatrix Potter, who lived at Hill Top – a five-minute drive away at Sawrey.
There is so much to see and do just in the village from visiting tea shops and cafes, to taking a walk from the village in pretty much any direction.
One free parking permit will be provided for nearby car park.
The main bus stop is located at the entrance to the village, opposite the Chocolate Factory, near the main car park and toilet block.
Bus services are available to Coniston and Ambleside (505) where you can link to services which cover the whole of the area.
Taxi Services are : -
Windermere Taxis ; Ambleside Taxis, Ambleside Amber Taxis, Lakes Taxis, John’s Taxis
Give Queens Head as pick up point for ease.
For tours and trips go to the Mountain Goat tours where you can either hire your own or join a group trip around the lakes which is a fabulous way to see the area, and not have to drive, plus they have a commentary to explain where you are and points of interest along the way.
