About this property
Carnforth 2 miles. Sitting across the road from the South Lakeland Leisure Village, on the outskirts of Carnforth is this fabulous, single-storey, detached lodge of The Bobbin, Number 11. An enticing base for a family of four's holiday in Lancashire, not only do you have access to a range of local, picturesque towns, but you're within driving distance of a range of National Parks. After parking outside, climb the steps up to this charming lodge where an open-plan living space adorned in attractive, neutral tones and brimming with natural light awaits. Sink back into the cushioned seating after a day of exploration and switch on the fire to warm your toes; why not gather the family for a movie night with the TV, too? After unwinding for a while, head to the well-equipped kitchen, where the foodie of the group can enjoy fixing up tasty treats, to be enjoyed at the nearby dining table, or outside on the decking during the sunnier months. As the day winds to a close, choose between two lovely bedrooms to retire to, both of which enjoy ample storage, with one being a double enjoying a TV and the other comprising twin beds. The bathroom can be found close by and enjoys contemporary fittings, ideal for when you need to enjoy a refreshing shower or relaxing soak in the bath.

no bedding. dirty bedding from previous guests in wash basket. heating not on .lodge freezing. Cleaners arrived after 40 minutes after check in. Sorted heating out and put bedding on beds. Not a good start but lodge comfortable and cosy after. TV not great if it rained kept cutting out. Very frustrating not being able to speak to any one on the phone.

Eventually had to ask neighbouring caravan for assistance. Cold wet evening without heat or light for over 3 hours not acceptable. Kitchen utensil, plates pans not clean had to rewash before use. We have stayed here before but the standard has dropped. Caravan would benefit from curtain over the door.
