    “Beautiful comfortable lodge.”

    Very well equipped throughout. We had the whole site to ourselves so it was very quiet and peaceful. Bathrooms and kitchen were clean. A few cobwebs noted in the lounge and dining area higher up near the ceiling and also in the main bedroom. Unfortunately we had 4 spiders during the week, however this is not in any way the fault of the lodge! Two of us are terrified of spiders so it made us a bit 'twitchy'.

    Very well equipped throughout. We had the whole site to ourselves so it was very quiet and peaceful. Bathrooms and kitchen were clean. A few cobwebs noted in the lounge and dining area higher up near the ceiling and also in the main bedroom. Unfortunately we had 4 spiders during the week, however this is not in any way the fault of the lodge! Two of us are terrified of spiders so it made us a bit 'twitchy'. The veranda was large with plenty of seating and room for our small dogs to run around. A couple of bulbs were out in the kitchen underneath the top cupboards, we found a box of spare bulbs but were uncertain how to change them so we didn't bother. On the whole it is a lovely lodge, warm and cosy and well equipped. Location is great and also peaceful.

    Thank you so much for your feedback and we are delighted that you had a good week in Beck of Beyond. Thank you also for mentioning about the bulbs, this has been addressed. Sorry about the spiders, it is the season for them so hope that the other guests managed to move them for you. Thank you for choosing Beck of Beyond and hope to welcome you back again very soon.

The property

Beck of Beyond is a 5 Star luxury lodge, one of only five on an exclusive site situated on the edge of the picture perfect village of Hawkshead, right in the centre of the Lake District.

The quality of these lodges really makes them stand out from the crowd as a superb base for your holiday - we have never seen lodges like this before and are delighted to be able to offer them in our portfolio.

Beck of Beyond is also to be featured on Sky TV, from its build, also right here in Cumbria, through to its arrival in Hawkshead, furnishing and completion. The location offers tranquillity and fantastic countryside views onto Latterbarrow and Hawkshead Hill whilst being an easy quarter of a mile walk to Hawkshead village.

Hawkshead has strong links with Beatrix Potter and William Wordsworth and has all the amenities you would expect from a small Lakeland village.

Nearby are Tarn Hows, Claife Heights and Grizedale Forest, to mention just a few, where lovely walks can be enjoyed.

The wood burning stove sits between the veranda doors and gives the whole open plan living space an air of cosy comfort. There are two bedrooms, the master with king-size bed, fitted carpets and fitted wardrobes has a large fully tiled en-suite (large walk-in rain shower, basin, wc and heated towel rail).

The second bedroom is a twin with fitted carpets, which has use of the main bathroom, which is again fully tiled (shower over bath, basin, wc and heated towel rail). Beck of Beyond is a beautifully equipped and stylish retreat ideal for a Lake District holiday at any time of the year.

Its central heating and feature log burner will keep you 'toasty warm' in the cooler months whilst the large veranda is ideal for morning cups of coffee, evening drinks and meals during the warmer months.

About the location

AMBLESIDE

Grasmere 4.4 miles; Windermere 4.7 miles; Keswick 16.7 miles.

Lying at the northern tip of Lake Windermere, England’s largest lake, Ambleside makes a superb base for touring the central Lakes, with Grasmere and the Langdale Valley just a short drive away. There is plenty to do here - cruises, boat trips and watersports on Lake Windermere itself and numerous shops, restaurants and pubs in the village to suit all tastes. On the lakeside at Waterhead, the parkland offers lovely views down the lake and a short stretch of beach, whilst a walk in the other direction, following Stock Ghyll through woodland, will bring you to the entrancing waterfall of Stock Ghyll Force. Along with the Lake and the great walking on offer, Ambleside is also famous for its annual rushbearing ceremony and the diminutive 17th century “Bridge House” - one of the most photographed buildings in the Lake District and now the National Trust Information Centre.

Note: Due to a few steps to reach the entrance, the property is not suitable for those with limited mobility.
