    Hawkshead is beautiful and the people who live there are very friendly. Lovely shops and cafe's etc walking is brilliant and views unbelievable have stayed in different accommodation in the village and this was the worst. I suggest the Red Lion if you're looking to visit

    Our "go to" place in the village has always been the Kings Arms Pub. Sadly the pub is currently closed for renovations and will not be open again until 2025. Without this pub, the village feels like it has list its heart. Other pubs are available of course, but none have the feel of The Kings Arms. The village is otherwise a great centre for surrounding activities. It is very serene in the evenings when the bulk of visitors have gone home. It's a shame that the village economy does not seem able to support a good quality walking shop. The current outlets in the village really cater for the low to mid-range mass market. For dining, the breakfasts at PoppiRed are exceptional. For our evening meals we used PoppiRed and The Red Lion. Both were very good.

    Love Hawkshead.

    Love Hawkshead. A super little village, with some sweet shops and various places to eat & drink. Great location to get to just about anywhere in the Lake District within reasonable travel time, and plenty of nearby walking.

    The one downside was the parking.

    The one downside was the parking. Many of the properties don’t have onsight parking which means parking on the main car park when you are in the village. The charges have recently been changed so that you have to pay overnight as well as during the day. There are no discounts for parking for a few days/ week so the £8.50 charge a day can add up if you are staying a few days. Nice restaurant in the village - Poppi Red would recommend to anyone who enjoys good food. Good base for visiting Windermere, Bowness, Ambleside, Coniston.

    A good place for lunch and an evening meal.

    A good place for lunch and an evening meal. Interesting walks around the village and located v close to Tarn Howes and other really interesting places including those linked to Beatrix Potter. Good food shops although the Co op is an essential and when it was unexpected closed caused some challenges for those at the camp site and cyclists passing through.

    Hawkshead is a great place to stay in the Lakes although this visit only one of the four pubs had enough staff to offer evening meals. There are plenty of low level circular walks from the village and numerous places to stay to suit most pockets. Special mention for food Is Poppi red which was excellent. The queens arms had nice food and friendly staff. The Sun in had live entertainment on Friday and Saturday night

    Me and my partner come to Hawkshead every year and we’d never stay anywhere different than The Hive at Poppi Red ❤️ it’s perfect and so beautiful, all the rooms we’ve stayed in were brilliant and so comfortable and beautifully decorated, made to feel so homey! The breakfast downstairs in the Poppi Red was so delicious and the products you can tell are local, so good! They allow dogs, even our pug recognises where she is and is so happy 😊 5 out of 5 stars from us! Millie, Josh & Connie x

    We thought the manager Tom was exceptional. Worked tirelessly to ensure our comfort. There seems to be a problem in getting staff back into the industry for a variety of reasons. Tom, however, managed to draft in the help of his family. They catered for vegetarians, breakfast was super set us up for the day. The Red Lion was a great location for our stay. The place is so dog friendly too. Hope Tom stays! Other lovely pubs too, Sun Inn and Queens Head - staff all so friendly and helpful.

    Everything! The room was amazing, lovely and spacious! Hawkshead is an amazing dog friendly town with everything you need. Emma was kind enough to offer us breakfast when we hadn’t booked a breakfast with our room - this was unreal!! Amazing produce, with a lovely breakfast area to sit at. This cottage style accommodation is beautiful with views from every window. We will definitely be back!

    Breakfast was excellent with a wide choice of locally sourced produce. The hosts were engaging and knowledgeable of the local area and happy to make recommendations. A great place to stay for the local Pubs and dining options and you could jump on a bus and visit other villages around the lake district if walking was not your thing.

    Cosy Inn above a pub/restaurant and perfectly centered in Hawkshead. The reservations for dinner that come with the room actually worked out well since several of the restaurants in the village were either closed or remodeling. The Queens Head is a perfect staging point for hikes through the hills and lakes in the area.
