Robin Hood at Bassenthwaite Lake was originally a country house situated in a spacious park-like garden, located about 0.5 km NNW of Bassenthwaite. It is included on the 6" O.S. map of the area published in 1867 as well as subsequent revisions (see Maps section below). The original buildings remain, but the area has recently been repurposed as [[Robin Hood Holiday Park (Bassenthwaite)|Robin Hood Holiday Park]], a resort with newly built holiday lodges that are offered for sale individually.<ref>See [http://www.robinhoodpark.co.uk/ Robin Hood Holiday Park company website.]</ref> The original main house is offered for rent as a self-catering holiday cottage under the name [[Robin Hood Cottage (Bassenthwaite)|Robin Hood Cottage]].<ref>[https://www.cumbrian-cottages.co.uk/northern-lakes/bassenthwaite-lake-area/robin-hood-cottage-cc113117 Cumbrian Cottages: Robin Hood Cottage.]</ref>

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 (Bassenthwaite)|Robin Hood Farm]] or the whole vicinity. The name 'Robin Hood Cottage' seems to have arisen more recently, probably some time in the second half of the 20th century, judging by the look of the sign in the driveway that reads 'Robin Hood House and Cottage' (see the second image in the Image Gallery below). The cottage is sometimes &ndash; incorrectly, I believe &ndash; referred to as 'Robin Hood House'.<ref>[http://www.panoramio.com/photo/52286963 Panoramio: Robin Hood House.]</ref> This was, and possibly still is, the name of [[Robin Hood House (Bassenthwaite)|another building in the vicinity]].

Robin Hood Cottage.
Robin Hood Cottage / Marki Allum, 2011, Panoramio.

By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2017-08-29. Revised by Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2019-05-30.

'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.

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. The name 'Robin Hood Cottage' seems to have arisen more recently, probably some time in the second half of the 20th century, judging by the look of the sign in the driveway that reads 'Robin Hood House and Cottage' (see the second image in the Image Gallery below). The cottage is sometimes – incorrectly, I believe – referred to as 'Robin Hood House'.[2] This was, and possibly still is, the name of another building in the 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 pages linked to at Bassenthwaite place-name cluster.Template:PnItemQry
