  • "Lovely property in nice area short walk to village which was nice."

    Was there with the intense heat which was too much for me only let down was could have done with a fan in the bedroom was extremely hot and uncomfortable. Hope to go back when it’s not as hot. Plenty of places to travel to not to far away so ideal base.

    Hi Ann, Thank you for the lovely feedback. I could have brought a fan over for you had I known it was so hot. I was unfortunate that your stay was during the heatwave warning. We would love it if you came back and stayed with us. Thanks Jude Property Owner

The property

Wardenlea sits quietly within the much-loved village of Scorton, a carefully refreshed semi-detached house that makes an easy, welcoming base for time away with family or friends.

With thoughtful updates throughout and a setting on the edge of open countryside, this is a place where days feel unhurried and evenings naturally draw everyone together.

From the moment you step indoors, the house feels purposeful yet inviting.

A handy porch provides space for coats and boots, before leading into the living room, where the woodburning stove becomes the natural focal point.

Sink into the seating, queue up a favourite film on the large Smart TV and let the fire do the rest after a day spent outdoors.

The kitchen is practical and well laid out, making meal preparation feel effortless, whether you are fixing a quick breakfast or planning a longer evening around the table.

Doors open straight out to the garden, encouraging meals to spill outside when the weather allows.

Also on this level is a thoughtfully arranged shower room, ideal for easing tired legs after long walks.

Upstairs, two generous double bedrooms offer calm, uncluttered spaces for a good night’s sleep, with the main bedroom benefiting from a full wall of fitted wardrobes that keep everything neatly tucked away.

Additional Smart TVs add a touch of convenience for slower mornings or quiet evenings.

Outside, the private garden is a real highlight.

Paved and gravelled for low-maintenance ease, it’s set up for long lunches, evening drinks, and sunny afternoons stretched out on the reclining chairs.

Off-road parking on the driveway keeps arrivals and departures refreshingly simple.

Beyond the gate, Scorton has a friendly village feel, with well-known spots such as The Barn, The Priory and The Apple Store offering places to eat, browse and linger.

The surrounding Forest of Bowland landscape invites walking, cycling and wildlife watching, while local favourites include the steady climb up Nicky Nook for far-reaching views, peaceful riverside paths along the Millennium Way, and quiet moments at St Peter’s Church.

Further afield, Brockholes Nature Reserve and the parkland of Avenham Park provide rewarding days out surrounded by nature.

Wardenlea offers a well-placed retreat where countryside scenery, village life and thoughtful touches come together with ease.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £150.

SCORTON

Garstang 3.6 miles; Lancaster 8.5 miles; Morecambe 15 miles.

Scorton is a village in Nether Wyresdale, on the very edge of the Forest of Bowland AONB. Although it was originally developed around the cotton mill and railway in the 19th Century, today it is most popular with walkers and cyclists seeking refreshment in one of its licensed restaurants. The village also hosts regular Food & Gift Fairs, where you can browse a delightful selection of stalls selling cheese, preserves, jewellery and crafts, to name but a few. Nicky Nook, its best known landmark, sits at the back of the village and, as it is only a short distance from the A6, the village is a wonderful starting point for exploring Lancashire. There are fishing opportunities nearby on the River Wyre, Wyreside Lake and Cleveley Mere. A few miles up the road is Garstang, famous for declaring itself as the world’s first Fairtrade town and well-loved for its delicious local produce and regular street markets. There is so much to keep you occupied in this area; the beautiful Leighton Moss RSPB Reserve, a day at Morecambe Bay or Blackpool, along with the popular towns of Lancaster, Kirkby Lonsdale and even Kendal and Windermere, easily reached in the car. With beautiful surroundings and an abundance of natural attractions, it is great for families, couples and friends.
