Upon arrival, leave your car in the off-road parking space and make your way up the entrance stairs to the apartment.

As you step inside, the elevated setting quickly becomes apparent, with open vistas providing an impressive backdrop to your stay.

The sitting room offers a welcoming place to unwind after a day of adventure, furnished with two stylish sofas arranged around an electric fire and wall-mounted Smart TV.

From here, wander through to the kitchen/dining room, a light-filled space designed with attractive, sleek fixtures and fittings.

The electric oven, electric hob, fridge/freezer and slimline dishwasher make meal preparation straightforward, while the glass dining table is perfectly positioned to make the most of the open views.

When it's time to retire for the evening, two well-presented bedrooms await.

The spacious twin room enjoys lovely views that create a restful setting for winding down after a busy day.

The impressive super-king-size bedroom is beautifully finished and benefits from far-reaching views across Lancaster's skyline, where guests can spot Lancaster Cathedral, the Town Hall clock and the Ashton Memorial in Williamson Park while looking out over the aqueduct below.

Completing the apartment is a contemporary shower room, where a rainfall shower provides a refreshing way to begin each morning.

Outside, the nearby canal and riverside footpaths invite leisurely walks with your four-legged companions, while the waterside setting provides plenty of opportunities to enjoy the scenery right on your doorstep.

A shop lies within easy reach and a traditional pub can be found a little further afield when dining out is on the agenda.

Lancaster is well worth exploring, with the historic Lancaster Castle offering fascinating heritage, Lancaster Cathedral providing striking architecture, and Williamson Park home to woodland walks, beautiful gardens and the iconic Ashton Memorial.

Nearby Morecambe is ideal for a day beside the coast, where visitors can stroll along the promenade, admire expansive views across Morecambe Bay and visit the famous Eric Morecambe Statue.

For those seeking outstanding countryside, the Yorkshire Dales National Park offers dramatic limestone scenery at Malham Cove, rewarding walking routes through spectacular valleys and charming market towns full of character and local history.

Whether you're admiring the views from the apartment, wandering alongside the canal or spending days discovering the Yorkshire Dales, Aqueduct Residence is an excellent base for experiencing the best of Lancaster and Lancashire.

Where you’ll be staying

LANCASTER

Morecambe 3 miles; Windermere 30 miles; Blackpool 37 miles.

The historic city of Lancaster sits on edge of Morecambe Bay, the sea is barely 3 miles away. Equally, Lancaster is perfect if you’re looking to explore the Lake District, Windermere is just 30 miles away.

The tidal River Lune flows through the city and St George’s Quay, with its elegant Georgian warehouses standing eave to eave on the riverfront, is considered to be the finest example of an original 18th Century port anywhere in the country.

Indeed, Lancaster retains many examples of handsome Georgian architecture and the area around the castle, particularly Castle Hill, Castle Park and Nip Hill are considered its most alluring quarter.

Lancaster’s skyline is dominated by the Ashton Memorial, made of white Portland stone and dedicated to the second wife of millionaire industrialist, Lord Ashton, it’s built in Neo-Baroque style and affords spectacular views of Morecambe bay from its hilltop location in Williamson Park, open-air concerts are held throughout the summer in the park.

Foremost among Lancaster’s clutch of museums, the Maritime Museum is the place to get to grips with Lancaster’s role in the unsavoury slave trade, behind only London, Bristol and Liverpool, Lancaster was the fourth largest city engaged in the 18th Century trade of African slaves across the Atlantic.

In addition to the Lake District, some of northern England’s greatest scenery is right on your doorstep: the Forest of Bowland, the Yorkshire Dales National Park and the Arnside & Silverdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, all easily accessible, offer the perfect opportunity to discover nature in the raw. And don’t forget, Lancaster’s location on the West Coast Mainline, means there are direct trains to all parts of the country.
