Thank you so much. Only feedback we would give would be about the quality of the WiFi - not a huge issue but signal kept dropping in and out and WiFi was slow.

Any requests were dealt with quickly. The owners were very friendly and attentive. We are used to mattress toppers so would be a nice added item. We had a great stay and wouldn't hesitate to recommend or stay again.

There is adjacent parking and its own private, out-door space overlooking a paddock then towards distant woodland. A quiet, rural location, just over 3 miles from Lancaster. All this and dog-friendly too. (There are sheep in the environs, so itâs essential you keep control of dog.) Our stay was in February, so our weather expectations were realistic and we took wellies, so we could access the Lune Estuary Coastal Path by a tramp through the campsite and the adjoining fields - although you can drive to the coast path car park right at the end of Corricks Lane, just down the road.
