About this property
A wonderful getaway awaits you at Inglewood Court; a beautiful ground-floor apartment enjoying an enviable position along the promenade and within striking distance of Arnside's amenities. This two-bedroom self-catered accommodation boasts an exceptional location and is perfect for romantics, families and outdoor enthusiasts to use as a base as they explore this part of Cumbria and beyond to the Lake District. Enter into the beautiful Victorian stone and slate building, before taking the steps down to the ground floor, where lovely views over the communal grounds, to the Estuary and beyond await. For those that might find stairs a little difficult, the apartment can be accessed from the front of the property at ground level. Discover the well-equipped kitchen, where white painted cabinets are topped by sleek black worksurfaces, containing all the essentials required to cook family-favourite dishes. Sit down at the accompanying dining table where double-glazed patio doors lead out into the garden. A gravelled sitting area awaits, which offers the most spectacular views of the Kent Estuary, viaduct and the Lake District fells beyond. Settle down at the end of each day within the sitting room where you can kick back on the sofa with your partner to tune into the TV, curl up in the armchair to delve into a book or simply admire the Kent Estuary and viaduct views. Completing the interior are the two bedrooms: the master suite, containing a plush king-size bed and a Smart TV, and a second bedroom with a single bed, making the perfect set up for couples or for families of three. Sunny mornings can be spent with a cup of tea on the gravelled seating area, where you can enjoy a spot of alfresco dining and watch the sun setting over the Kent Estuary. To the rear of the characterful building is an allocated off-road parking space, as well as a shared utility room with a tumble dryer and storage space for bikes. Stroll along the promenade to further admire the views before finding the centre of modest Arnside, home to a plethora of places to eat and drink, and a range of shops for the essentials. The pier serves as an enduring reminder of Arnside’s illustrious maritime history and offers stunning views across Morecambe Bay. Avid ramblers will be delighted by the National Trust owned Arnside Knott, a 520ft high flat rock and a designated AONB which offers a variety of walks around Arnside Knott and up to the coastline along the cliffs. Continue to savour your surroundings with an afternoon at RSPB Leighton Moss nature reserve which is the largest reed bed in north-west England and home to a plethora of wildlife, including marsh harriers, egrets, otters and red deer! Blackstone Point beach is also nearby and is a wonderful place to go walking․ Those bringing a younger guest along can visit the majestic landmark of the Fairy Steps, offering an easy ramble with plenty of scenic spots for a picnic. Slightly further afield is Lakeland Wildlife Oasis where you pay a visit to see the snow leopards! Those feeling more adventurous can head to the Lake District National Park to uncover more breath-taking scenery or you could travel to the bustling Cumbrian town of Kendal where you will find two castles, two museums and a host of fine restaurants and shopping arcades. Inglewood Court is an outstanding property to share a memorable break with your loved ones.

Quite well equipped but could do with a bigger frying pan. Also television would improve with more free channels. We can't use the streaming channels and don't go far in the evening so when you can't sit outside then it's a bit limiting . The quality of the towels and bedding are first class. It is our 3rd stay in that apartment and don't intend it to be our last. It is ideal for people with limited mobility.

Had to google it to find out, I thought something serious was going off at one of the nuclear plants. Perhaps put an info sheet in a frame near kettle so itâs one of the first things you see on arrival. I saw it mentioned in the folder when I got round to reading it later that Saturday. I also struggled with the push button lock on the door at the carpark side, I only got it to work once then it wouldnât do it again. Not really an issue for me as I preferred to use patio doors to front/kitchen. Prefer bath sheet to bath towel as a towel doesnât wrap around fully, not sure if fan was working in bathroom as the front opened up but it didnât make the sound of a fan and couldnât see it turning round. Loved the milk, tea, coffee etc on arrival. It really is a lovely property in a perfect position, my first holiday after a very stressful 12 months and I really relaxed and enjoyed the scenery, the local shops & food and just sitting in the garden watching the sea and people go by. Many thanks, Iâll be back soon.
