Grange is a pretty resort with an Edwardian flavour and a relaxed atmosphere. It is on the shores of Morecambe Bay, and has great views across the sands of the Bay. The estuary and the countryside around Grange are fascinating places for nature enthusiasts. A tremendous range of birds can be seen, and there are several nature reserves and sites of special scientific interest. Grange has some of the finest parks and gardens on the Cumbrian coast – the ornamental gardens has a lake with many water birds or if you prefer enjoy a walk along the promenade which hosts regular art exhibitions. Grange is the ideal base to explore the Southern Lakes area which offers plenty of variety in terms of attractions, from the stately Holker Hall and Gardens, to Cartmel Racecourse or mountain biking and Go Ape at Grizedale Forest.

Apartment clean, comfortable and very spacious. Local amenities couldn't have been any handier. Lovely walks close by in gardens and along promenade. Weather wasn't the best (but that's the Lake District), so the apt. was a haven on occasions. We found the accommodation very good and would not hesitate to rebook.

This is the sixth visit to the property, it is in need of some TLC now.There is a hole in the wall, the kitchen equipment is not sufficient for four people.But the worst offender is the sofa, it has never been comfortable but now it is practically unusable as there is a metal spike protruding form the frame.I am sure buying a second hand sofa would cost less than being sued when someone is injured by it. We have enjoyed our previous visits but I think the time has now come to look for somewhere in Grange that is kept in better order.

Super location. A very warm and comfortable apartment. Some of the furniture is long past its best e.g. settee and coffee table. Would have been nice to have been provided with a pint of milk and some sugar for tea and coffee on arrival which many rented properties provide. When staying in a property for a couple of days one doesn’t want to have to provide all the basics from home.
