New! South Lakeland lodge website - Lake district self catering breaks
The Lake District National Park, is famous for its unsurpassed scenery, awe-inspiring fells and dramatic mountains that plunge into beautiful lakes and valleys. A walker’s paradise that offers so much more, from museums and cultural history to lake cruises, excellent shopping and an abundance of fine restaurants.
The Yorkshire Dales is an area of outstanding natural beauty, easily accessed through the spectacular Trough of Bowland or via the pretty market town of Kirkby Lonsdale. Scenic drives will bring you to historic castles, ruined abbeys or stately homes and gardens. Easy riverside strolls or full day treks along the Pennine Way are available to suit any age and all ability ranges.
Right on the doorstep the quiet countryside around Silverdale and Arnside is perhaps less well known yet those who explore the area will reap rich rewards. Leighton Moss RSPB nature reserve has activities throughout the year and is a tourist attraction not to be missed, while Leighton Hall stately home has a good collection of antique furniture and some panoramic views over Morecambe Bay to the Lake District.
Carnforth railway station, famous for the 1943 film ‘Brief Encounter’, is now restored and has an interesting heritage centre.
The attractions of Morecambe Bay, the Lune Valley and the historic city of Lancaster are just down the road.
The opportunities for nearby leisure activities are unlimited and include walking, rambling, climbing, cycling, golf, sailing, fishing, windsurfing and bird watching or simply enjoy the peace and quiet of the countryside to get away from it all!
