About this property

A luxury solar powered holiday cottage located on the outskirts of Carnforth, north of the historic town of Lancaster and close to the picturesque town of Kirby Lonsdale. The cottage is only 20 minutes by car away from the wonderful Lake District, the glorious Fylde Coast and the winding lanes of the Yorkshire Dales. Beautifully presented with heart-warming features and underfloor heating throughout, this retreat is wrapped in breath-taking views (BoaVista) which oversee the Lakeland Fells, with spectacular sunsets over Morecambe bay to the West and the clear blue waters of Jackdaw Quarry to the East. Wander past the patio area into the cottage, where you can take a moment to relax in the delightful lounge on the selection of sumptuous seating. A modern electric fire is placed to the side of the room. A fantastic 75inch Ultra HD TV with Netflix and Freeview Play lies central to the seating area which is attached to a contemporary surround sound system that can also connect to your mobile via Bluetooth to let you stream your own music through the 6 speaker system. Simply open up the full width Bi-fold doors to be at one with the tranquil scenery, a wonderful balcony is your perfect chance to take in the one-of-a-kind landscape and observe the variety of bird life. The address takes its name from the Jackdaws that thrive in the habitat. The stylish kitchen, twin room and luxury shower room with toilet complete the layout of the ground floor. The lower ground floor is equally as sumptuous, with a modern bathroom mirroring that of a hotel quality. The bathroom has an oversize bath, and a separate large shower with seating. After a long day, choose from a king-size and twin room with 2 x 4ft beds for a good night's sleep. All bedrooms include a TV with Freesat and access onto the balcony.

The local village of Over Kellet is a popular place for enjoying afternoon tea and light refreshments and has a local pub with a beer garden which does great quality and substantial meals along with a quiz night on Wednesdays (Over Kellet is approx. 1.1 miles away from the cottage). The nearby Heritage Centre provides an insight into Carnforth's history. Enjoy canal side walks into Carnforth to the West and Tewitfield to the East where a local hostelry awaits you for refreshments. The Village of Warton is within easy walking distance from Carnforth if you want to take the ruined remains of the 14th century Warton Old Rectory, once the local manor house, and the lovely St Oswald's Church. As well as the Diving that is available right below you there are Fishing Lakes and Golf Courses available close by. Other local attractions are the swimming pool and leisure centre at Capernwray and Greenlands Farm Village for crafts, local produce, a play area, café and a garden centre.

    A few things need updating which I have mentioned to the owner amongst other things.But it would not stop me booking again.

  • Cailin

    Fantastic place perfect for a relaxed holiday and also perfect for an adventurous holiday… the sights were beautiful and the lodge was fantastic would definitely come again

  • Allison

    better than expected. It was modern, immaculately clean, filled with everything you could need for even the longest stay, it was in a stunning location with fantastic views and outside spaces. The size of the TV shocked everyone in our party, it was huge! The only concern I had was testing the hot tub, something I wasn't expecting, and please add a line in the welcome back of where to find the test strips. The owner was fantastic and nothing was too much trouble. We will definitely return again and again.
