    From the minute you arrive you are made to feel welcome with Diane showing you around and home made cakes left for your arrival. The pod is very comfortable and every detail has been carefully thought out. The hot tub was the perfect temperature on our arrival which means you can get straight in and relax. Would recommend to anyone who wants to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. We will definitely be back.

  • "The jack daws den was really nice, very clean and all amenities were there."

    Hot tub was nice and the patio area, quite private just open at the front. The beds were a little hard for us but you get that in a lot of places. There were some work going on opposite our pod which went on for a lot of a day, electricians then cement trucks so was quite noisy and disturbed our day and wasn’t comfortable going in hot tub with work men around, but overall the stay was comfortable and the pod really nice.

About the location

LANCASTER

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

The historic city of Lancaster sits on edge of Morecambe Bay, with the River Lune flowing through its centre. Lancaster retains many excellent examples of handsome Georgian architecture, and with its captivating medieval castle, Ashton Memorial, and four museums, it’s an interesting place for those in search of history and tales of the past. Among the many amenities, there are two venues for live performances, the Lancaster Grand Theatre and the Dukes, as well as open-air concerts held frequently in the pretty Williamson Park during the summer season. The Forest of Bowland and The Arnside & Silverdale Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty provide visitors with lots of opportunities to take in the flora and fauna of the area, with wonderful walking and cycling ways to enjoy. There are also good road and rail links into Cumbria and beyond, meaning Lancaster is a wonderful base for also exploring the Lake District.
