Lama Lodge is tiny but in a beautiful location, just a short walk to Hawkshead village. It’s very cosy and secluded, with a comfy bed, good Tv and Wi-Fi and plenty of hot water. The kitchen is functional, but bathroom could do with a fan. Highly recommend for a short break. ##### Gilly Peters-Parr Verified ### 8/10 Good #### alan h. 8 Apr 2025 ##### alan h.
