'Robin Hood Cottage' is a holiday home for rent[1] situated in a vicinity known as 'Robin Hood' c. 2 km NE of Bassenthwaite Lake and some 600 m NNW of Bassenthwaite village.
The name 'Robin Hood Cottage' seems to have originated quite recently. It is possible that the name 'Robin hood', included on the 6" O.S. map of the area published in 1867 as well as subsequent revisions (see Maps section below), was originally used of the cottage and subsequently came to be applied to the vicinity in which it is located, but it may also have originated as the name for the adjacent Robin Hood Farm or the whole vicinity.
About 150 m SSE of Robin Hood Cottage is found Robin Hood Wood. For this and other Robin Hood names in the vicinity, see Robin Hood (Bassenthwaite), Robin Hood Farm (Bassenthwaite) and Bassenthwaite place-name cluster.
