The property
This compact detached lodge is situated in a private corner of the South Lakeland Leisure Village, which benefits from excellent on-site facilities including a spa, indoor swimming pool, restaurant and bar.
This bright, contemporary lodge has two bedrooms and a family shower room with a large shower.
There is also an L-shaped leather settee in the living area and outside decking that is perfect for planning the day’s activities or for having a relaxing evening drink whilst taking in the south-facing and far-reaching views to Warton Crag.
This and more makes it perfect for couples and families wishing to relax and enjoy the superb on-site facilities.
The location of this lodge has easy access to the Lake District but also to the coastal area around Arnside, Jenny Brown’s Point and Silverdale.
These villages are set in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and they enjoy breathtaking views to the shore, all of Morecambe Bay from elevated spots and Lakeland Hills.
These views can also be seen from Warton Crag seen opposite from this lodge, approximately two miles away, and also Arnside Knott.
At Silverdale, just five miles away, is the RSPB Leighton Moss bird reserve, home to rare birds, otters and deer and where you can see a variety of wildlife from the reserve’s hives and then explore the grounds of Leighton Hall just short walk away.
In Carnforth, the railway station is a heritage site where you can step back in time to the forties and see where the famous film Brief Encounter was filmed.
A well-deserved break in the tea room is also a must as this is still as it appeared during the 1940s film.
In Carnforth you can also hop on a canal boat during the summer months and enjoy a relaxing cruise starting near Carnforth or from Lancaster.
Alternatively, guests can enjoy the facilities on site such as spa treatments, steam room, gym and the swimming pool but not forgetting the pub and restaurant, meaning you don’t have to use the car during your stay if you don’t wish to.
This all helps to make this South Lakeland lodge a perfect base all year round.
