    “Just back from 4 nights, and would commend the owners on how they've put a lot of thought into how theyve stocked the lodge with endless kitchen utensils, high chair in one of the cupboards, and a play pen / folding cot for those with babies.”

    Score highly for thinking of our beloved 4 legged friends with a basket in the unit as you enter the lodge for dogs with spare blanket, bowls, water bottle and think a couple of toys (not that we used any of it as had taken own dog bowls and blankets etc). A bottle of wine on arrival, handful of tea and coffee and sugar with capsules of milk in the fridge was a nice touch for anyone that had travelled along way to get there.We had only travelled an hr from home to the lodge Will 100% ...

    Score highly for thinking of our beloved 4 legged friends with a basket in the unit as you enter the lodge for dogs with spare blanket, bowls, water bottle and think a couple of toys (not that we used any of it as had taken own dog bowls and blankets etc). A bottle of wine on arrival, handful of tea and coffee and sugar with capsules of milk in the fridge was a nice touch for anyone that had travelled along way to get there.We had only travelled an hr from home to the lodge Will 100% recommend to all HOWEVER think the advert should be amended to mention the proximity of the M6 to the rear (the bedrooms) of the lodge, a couple of bushes and a row of trees on a sound bank and reckon less than 20 metres from the M6. We could hear the traffic and that's in October with the windows obviously closed. So with windows on vent or open in Summer months then you will 1000% hear the M6. The site was pretty empty during our stay (4th-8th Oct). Think the advert also needs to mention the none existent lighting on the site, again probably not an issue in Summer months but it was pitch black when we went. Granted the owners did leave 2 head torches in a basket of leaflets about local attractions BUT still think it should mention the lack of lighting on the site. Also the on site pub restaurant has strange opening hrs, last food ordered/served 15.45 on a Sunday which was a shock. Think the property needs a little bit of TLC as few things not working, but we left a note for the owners and saw that others had done the same in the past. 10000% nicer site than Haven sites we have stayed on and had the major advantage of next to no kids on site. We would still book again and are thinking of doing so for May 2025.

The property

Carnforth 2.2 miles.

Set on the grounds of the South Lakeland Leisure Village, on the outskirts of Carnforth, lies this charming, three-bedroom holiday lodge, Walkers Rest.

Sleeping six guests and their two well-behaved dogs, this delightful, ground-floor property boasts off-road parking, open-plan living spaces, an enclosed decking, and superb positioning to nearby amenities, making it a perfect choice for a family or group of sharing friends who are looking for a relaxing, self-catered escape to Lancashire.

Park up and unpack your belongings before settling into your new home-from-home, where a well-appointed, open-plan living space is waiting to be enjoyed.

Get to work in the fully-equipped kitchen where you'll find all the appliances you'll need to whip up a delicious meal for the whole group to savour at the dining table, or even alfresco on the outdoor decking in the warmer months.

In the evenings, kick back and relax with a glass of your favourite beverage in the sitting area whilst you and your loved ones enjoy a film on the Smart TV by the warming embrace of an electric fire.

When it's time to go to sleep, retreat to one of three plush bedrooms, each accompanied by their own wall-mounted Smart TV, where you can properly unwind and settle down for well-earned rest.

When you're ready, take time to explore what your local surroundings have to offer.

The South Lakeland Leisure Village offers shared use of a variety of on-site facilities, including a swimming pool for those looking to get their lengths in, as well as its very own eatery, the Waters Edge Restaurant & Bar.

A short drive into the nearby market town of Carnforth is more than worthwhile, where visitors can pick up some quaint trinkets from the Kitty Brown Boutique, stock up on essentials at the Booths supermarket, or sit down to enjoy a traditional pub lunch at either The Junction or The County Lodge & Brasserie.

The briefest of car journeys north will take you into the heart of the Arnside & Silverside Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, home to the magnificent Gait Barrows National and Warton Crag Nature Reserves, the Fairy Steps hiking area, and the historic spot of Arnside Tower.

Whatever time of year, you'll be sure to have an unforgettable stay in Lancashire when booking Walkers Rest.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.
