Crow's Nest

Lovely, spacious apartment with stunning views of the estuary.

Very clean and well equipped.

Great views, nice welcome fizz. Be very happy to stay again.

Such a beautiful property , large apartment very clean with the most amazing views

Super property comfortable and well equipped.

Fabulous views. Would thoroughly recommend.

An excellent base for exploring the local area and south lakes.

Beautiful views from the flat which was comfortable and clean with plenty of space for six adults. Short walk to good shops, cafes and pubs.

We stayed in September 2025.

Weather was dreadful most of the week but we managed to dodge a few of the showers when we could, but it was nice coming back to a lovely, comfortable apartment. The beds were comfortable and the scenery (when we could see it ☔️☔️) was great. The Bore was a bit disappointing; I think we were expecting a tidal wave!!

What an amazing view.

You can just sit and enjoy it - whatever the weather. The apartment was warm, comfortable and spotlessly clean.

The accommodation was very good, clean, comfortable and very well decorated.

It was a pleasure to sit in the lounge and stare at the amazing views from the window. Would highly recommend it.

"Wonderful Apartment" This is our third visit and we enjoyed it just as much as the first time.

The number of return visitors really is testament to the quality of the accommodation. I mentioned to the lovely owner that it feels like a genuine home from home for us and we can't imagine our future holidays without a visit to Crows Nest. Thank you Kaye and David

Excellent holiday accommodation.

We had 5 people staying and the facilities were excellent.

What a find!

! A fantastic top floor apartment with amazing views across the estuary. Really well equipped kitchen with plenty of space. Comfy beds, huge bath and two showers (one ensuite). Location is excellent too, Arnside has a couple of pubs, local shop, fish and chip shop and cafes all easily withing walking distance. Would definitely stay again next time we're planning a trip to the lakes.

Crows Nest is a lovely, spacious and well equipped apartment in a great location with fabulous views across the Kent Estuary.

Only a short walk to Arnside's shops and pubs, and easy access to the railway station. It's a wonderful base for exploring the area.

We had such a fantastic stay at Crow's Nest.

We ranged from aged 2 to 79 and it was perfect for all of us. The location was fabulous...right on the beach, close to the train station, plenty to see/do locally and further afield. The apartment was beautiful...spotlessly clean and well equipped with everything we could need.

Lovely apartment very comfortable and well equipped.

We found the stairs challenging with luggage but it didn't cause a problem we took them at our own speed and it was definately worth getting to the top for the view. Thank you owners for having us!

It was an amazing find.

Clean, bright and comfortable. Plenty of space for a party of six and especially for us, a party of three. Views were spectacular and we could have sat and looked out of the windows for hours. I found my bed a little hard but that did nothing to detract from my enjoyment of my stay. The stairs have to be taken slowly but they are well worth it for the views and the space when you reach the top. We all had a brilliant time.

Crow's Nest is spacious yet cosy, and has wonderful views of the estuary.

It is very well equipped, comfortably furnished and warm. It was very clean. Highly recommended.

Loved the views over the estuary from the living room.

Really well equipped kitchen so we could cook proper meals. A teapot too which is often lacking!

A wonderful apartment.

All rooms beautifully presented. Great views across the estuary.We wouldn't choose to stay anywhere else in Arnside. Easy to walk to the station so using public transport is no problem.

Well equipped apartment.

Beautiful views over the Kent Estuary from flat. Warm, spacious, homely. V clean and organised by owners. Local pubs. Great journey Arnside to Grange by train. Community equipment scheme at Arnside station, able to hire electric bikes. We borrowed a mobility scooter for a donation. Fantastic idea, waysaroundthebay.org.

What a superb place to stay - perfectly located for the amenities of Arnside and access to the southern lakes - we would definitely recommend this property

Such a lovely holiday home.

Felt at home from the moment we got there. Everything we expected and more. The only downside was the stairs, but so worth it for the view over the estuary. Great location too with some great walks pubs and other amenities.

Faultless Our second stay at this lovely apartment and we plan to return annually if we can.

The accommodation is fantastic, so comfortable and with every facility catered for. The views, as others have mentioned, are second to none. We find our stays at Crows Nest to be perfect for a week of peace and relaxation.

The apartment was excellent, with magnificent views.

The weather was awful but it did not matter because the apartment was so cosy and comfortable with superb views of the estuary and Lake District.

Only sorry that we don’t live there!

Fabulous location.

The views from the front windows are fantastic it was great seeing the bore come in. Loved the bottle of fizz and complimentary teas & coffees. Very spacious, the facilities were all top notch and rooms tastefully decorated. The family bathroom is amazing. The kitchen was great to cook in. The people living downstairs were friendly and helpful. The walk starting just outside the door along the estuary I think we walked every day. Load of things to do and visit nearby. A walk away the fish and chip shop gets a 10/10,the Fighting Cock pub is worth a visit as are the little cafes along the promenade. The local Londis has everything you need. The owners were very quick to respond when I had a query. I would definitely book again. The kingsize bed was a little hard for me but that's a personal preference and the towels were a bit on the small size. Only one suggestion - have a poster at the bottom of the stair explaining the recycling and the collection dates. We missed the day 'cos we weren't sure and the bags were full to the brim from previous visitors. We took our recycling home.

A fantastic property in a stunning location.

The apartment is beautiful decorated, very clean and very well equipped, with stunning views across the water! The location is fantastic, with walks straight out the front door as well as lots to explore in the local area and not far to venture into the lakes for a more strenuous walk. We had a fantastic stay and would definitely come here again!

Lovely place to stay with incredible views of the bay and the sunsets.

Impressively clean with great facilities in the kitchen and bathroom. The location is perfect, situated at the end of the promenade but very close to the shops, cafes, pub and chippy. Only 10-15 minutes walk from the train station, and the train line is well connected for both transport links and day trips.

Excellent views: whatever the weather, they were interesting & beautiful throughout.

Facilities excellent, except that the heating varied from fairly warm to cold, and this prevented total comfort. I did not use the washing machine, the dishwasher, the grill, nor the oven, nor the microwave; certainly the facilities were there but cannot comment on the usage; the cooking rings were somewhat unpredictable & cooking was therefore not a quick & straight-forward process. Only used 1 bed (sea-blue room), wardrobes & hanging spaces in all. Very comfortable & slept particularly well. Bathroom: shower a delight (space & hot water).Good size for space/comfort. Would have preferred plastic chair to sit. Lounge very comfortable; TV excellent. Plenty of room. Steps/stairs: Considerable & extremely steep. I had requested a country cottage for gentle exercise! Basically, they were going to get rid of any problem or reduce me to hospital! With all the luggage to carry, I should have been notified, and I do not recall any advice in the advance details. Very pleasant family.

Beautifully appointed spotless apartment, unrivalled views of the estuary and fells, we were lucky to see a picture perfect sunset and to witness the famous bore.

The owners were very accommodating with a special request that we had. Sadly we didn't have more time to stay.

We had a lovely week at Crows Nest over Christmas.

The apartment was spacious, well furnished and warm. Beds were comfortable and linen and towels good quality. We loved the Christmas decorations wine and goodies. The kitchen is well equipped, we cooked Christmas dinner for five there and there was plenty of crockery and cutlery so that we could use the dishwasher. Finally, the view was amazing. We hope to be back when the weather is better.

Lovely large apartment, with wonderful views over the estuary from the lounge.

Everything was spotlessly clean. Large smart TV and comfortable seating though really just for 4/5 people, but 2 small chairs are available for use from the bedrooms. Kitchen very well equipped. The 3 bedrooms are of a good size. The apartment is on the second floor which of course requires a climb up some stairs which could be problematic for some, but for us perfectly fine. Plenty of walking from the door and Arnside railway station just a short walk away. We would definitely return.

Lovely, well equipped and maintained flat, superb views.

I highly recommend the flat, as long the guests realise there is quite a few stairs to get to the front door.

Fabulous apartment in a perfect location with with really wonderful estuary views.

Clean, comfortable, beautifully decorated and very well maintained. We had a few little glitches early on but these were quickly resolved by the very helpful owners, Kaye and David. A pint of fresh milk would have been a lovely addition after our journey - but there are two good shops fairly close by. We all had a fantastic week and plan to return. The Plowman Family, Sheffield.

Beautifully decorated, thoughtfully equipped.

Spacious with fabulous views. A pleasure to stay there.

Lovely apartment with views across the bay.

Everything you needed had been provided, it was very welcoming to arrive back after a day out. Good WiFi and TV signals. The parking was good, the only draw back was the stairs which we did know about before we booked.

Wonderful well equipped apartment.

Beautifully decorated and fabulous views. We enjoyed the stay very much and hope to visit again in the future.

Crow’s nest is a lovely apartment situated at the end of the prom, with spacious rooms and beautiful views over the estuary.

Everything was clean including the oven and the kitchen was well equipped Two flights of stairs was no problem even though 2 of us are in our eighties. The only problem I had was with the mattress on the bed in the en-suite room, it was too hard but I would still go again (perhaps with a mattress topper) as it is such a beautiful apartment in a beautiful position in such a beautiful place.

What a beautiful apartment and with stunning views !

First Class accommodation.

Extremely comfortable and spotlessly clean. The views from the property are second to none (even with classic British Summer rainy weather!). Wouldn't hesitate to recommend and we hope to return in the future.

The apartment was perfect , with everything we could have wanted, and the views were amazing!

Fantastic well equiped large apartment with stunning views near a few shops, cafe's, pubs and an excellent fish and chip shop, with the added bonus of being only a few minutes walk away from the train station.

Lovely helpfull owners with nothing being too much trouble. Apart from a couple of cleaning issues which Kaye was informed of and a plumbing problem that was dealt with immediately we had an amazing time and will definitely be back. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

At first we were disappointed to find the flat was dusty in a few areas (but clean in most others) - but then we met the owners of Crows Nest who explained that the windows had all been replaced the week previously and "there was dust everywhere".

So they had been very busy cleaning the flat, but there were a few odd areas which had been missed (it is a large flat). We then realised what a major problem they had faced and did not wish to complain. We also suspect it was the dust which set off the fire alarms one night (early morning) - much to our annoyance. Again the owners were full of apologies and immediately arranged for the maintenance engineer to carry out a full check the next day. Their care for the flat - and for us - could not be faulted.

Lovely apartment and what a view!

Looks out over the estuary to the Lakeland fells beyond- beautiful. Flat was very clean and well equiped. Has the added bonus of the 4 flights of stairs to get into so got fit as well!! Arnside is a lovely little village with a well stocked shop and some great cafes. Will return for sure.

We have stayed in a lot of properties and this one is up there at the top.

The position is perfect for nipping to the shop and pub and has the added bonus of parking. There are lovely walks right from the doorstep. It felt very clean and it was very spacious. The views were absolutely fabulous from the front bedrooms and living room. The owners were very easy to communicate with and were lovely people and always happy to help. Overall this was one of the best holidays in the UK we have had, even with the rainy days. Thank you for having us!

Excellent accommodation in an an excellent location with an even more excellent view.

Great flat, clean, well furnished and extremely well equipped.

Outstanding views across the estuary. Despite the inclement weather we managed decent walks in the area. Arnside station was 10 minutes walk from the property and we made use of it thereby having a couple of driving free days. Arnside itself is a lovely village, would recommend this property.

Absolutely stunning apartment, with superb views across the Kent Estuary.

We’re Arnside veterans and have stayed in many properties around the area for years, and The Crows Nest is certainly one of the best we’ve stayed in. We will be back!

Fabulous accommodation: overlooking the estuary we definitely felt we were in a Crow's Nest.

The view constantly changed and provided excellent bird-nerding. We had a 50 Shades of Grey week but coming back each night was a joy as we watched the sky change from rainbow spectrum to gold to crimson. Delightful.

A very special place.

The ever changing view kept us entertained all week despite wet, windy weather. Apartment was warm, spacious, well equipped and very comfortable. Plenty of good walks (and coffee spots) from the door.

We have just spent a fantastic week at Arnside.

The property couldn't have been better. It was very well decorated, extremely clean and very well equipped with everything you need for your stay. Lots of leaflets and information on what to do during your stay and also games for those quiet nights in. The views from the accommodation was spectacular, it was worth the 36 steps climb to see it. It certainly kept us fit during our stay. I would definitely recommend this property to stay.

Lovely location.

Beautiful scenery from the apartment. Very clean and spacious accommodation. All facilities were there. Can’t fault it. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely and very well equipped apartment.

Furnished to a very height standard with plenty of cooking utensils. Lovely bottle of wine for us on our arrival and some biscuits made the kids day. Only slight gripe was the main bed was incredibly squeaky, maybe the bolts needed tightened. The area itself was very quiet but good for exploring the local area and only 30 mins from Morecambe and the Lake District.

This property has an amazing location and is spot on as per the listing.

Only negative is if you are staying with an elderly relative then the stairs can be difficult.
