About this property

Finest Retreats | Ellen's Cottage

Ellen’s Cottage is a beautifully presented, 17th century cottage located on Boardmans Farm, one of the oldest buildings in Hawkshaw dating back to 1707. The cottage is full of character but with all the modern requirements for a cosy stay. It's an ideal choice for the perfect couples getaway.

Ellen’s Cottage can be found up a quiet lane with no through traffic. The picturesque exterior with centuries of character is surrounded by beautiful gardens. The gardens are south-west facing over the landscape and have outdoor furniture where guests can soak up the sun in the summer before heading inside the rustic, cosy cottage.

On entering the cottage, the oak beams against the white walls oozes charm throughout, a grandfather clock setting the tone of this historic building. A log fire will warm those cold evenings, and a comfortable sofa to relax in sits off the stairs to the bedroom adjacent to the kitchen at the rear, well-stocked with all the amenities and utensils required to cook up a feast.

Up the stairs can be found the luxurious four poster double bed, enjoying countryside views to the south. The bathroom is equipped with a bath and shower, with complimentary amenities for your stay.

The local pub is only 1 mile down the lane to Hawkshaw Village, where you will find further amenities at the village store.

Ellen’s Cottage has parking for two cars. Please be aware the entrance to the property is down a single track lane.

Two well-behaved pets are welcome and should never be left alone in the property.

So beautiful and such a charming location with great views!
So beautiful and such a charming location with great views! It’s so far on the back of the street, clearer instructions on location would have been helpful. There were also cobwebs everywhere inside.

Lovely location - few touches missing to make us feel welcomed and comfortable.
Lovely location. Some small features missing - no wood left for the fire, no independent control of heating, few cobwebs suggesting cleaning could be a little better, no reserved parking space near property, lighting outside property poor when arriving in the dark.

My husband and I had the most amazing stay in this lovely little cottage
My husband and I had the most amazing stay in this lovely little cottage. We found ourselves in between homes whilst we wait to move house and this cottage was perfect for us. Really cosy, comfy bed and well kitted out kitchen. Plus beautiful surroundings, views and walks. Sal and Phil were really accommodating as we not only had our newborn but our pets. Amazing hosts, so welcoming and we wouldn’t hesitate in rebooking! The perfect pre moving day break - huge thank you again! Jess, Nick, Zach, Skye 🐾 & Kobi 🐾 x
