We were a family of 6 adults and our dog who enjoyed every aspect of our stay. Spacious, comfortable and exceptionally clean it felt like a real home from home. Many evenings spent in the downstairs games room after meals around the table.Everything you need for a relaxing week away with all you could ever wish for in the kitchen. A superb welcome pack provided for us and our dog! Julie was exceptionally helpful and efficient in responding to any questions we had. Carnforth is an excellent base for days out in the lakes and the surrounding areas. Thank you.
