Heysham 1.7 miles. This well-presented property lies on the Ocean Edge Holiday Park close to the village of Heysham, on the edge of Morecambe Bay. Enjoying sea views with a refreshing interior, Sunflowers is a fabulous base to exploring this coastal location, or to visit the Lake District. Step into the open-plan living space, providing a lovely space to unwind following a day of activity; sink into one of the plush settees as you browse the TV for some evening entertainment, and the electric effect fire adds atmosphere. Behind rests a well-equipped kitchen, with sea view, and fitted with all the mod cons for your stay. The dining area offers a place to enjoy breakfast before heading out exploring the lakes for the day, or enjoying a walk on the beach. As the evening comes to a close, there are two attractive bedrooms to choose from, both fitted with double beds, with the main bedroom offering a dressing area and en-suite basin and WC. There is also a shower room where you can step into the walk-in shower enclosure, ideal to wash off the sand after a day at the beach. To the exterior of Sunflowers is a decked area with furniture, so you can enjoy a favourite beverage as you catch the last of the summer sun, as well as enjoying the sea views. Ocean Edge Holiday Park boasts a range of family friendly activities and facilities; take a dip in the indoor heated swimming pool, challenge each other to games in the amusement arcade, or enjoy a delicious meal and drink at The Boathouse Bar & Restaurant (passes for on site park facilities not included in the price) Adult Pass £13.45, Child £10.95 available from park reception. In the surrounding area there are a number of great walks to embark on, including Heysham Nature reserve, or the relatively unknown sandy beach at Half Moon Bay where you can enjoy a coastal walk along to Morecambe. In under 35 miles you can be in Newby Bridge at the bottom of Windermere, or travel slightly further afield to enjoy Coniston water, or the wonders of Beatrix Potter in Hawkshead. Closer to home, enjoy the history of Lancaster castle, Williamson park with the Ashton Memorial, or at the seaside town of Morecambe, under five miles away, where you can enjoy fine sweeping views from the promenade, admire marine-inspired artwork around the town, as well as enjoying the many pleasures of the seaside. Heysham itself offers a handful of pubs, restaurants and takeaways, perfect for when you fancy a night off cooking, plus a convenience store for grabbing any cupboard essentials. Sunflowers is a wonderful spot to relax and a great base to explore in this coastal region.
Heysham is a lovely coastal village resting a few miles from Morecambe and the city of Lancaster. The town is home to a superb selection of pubs, restaurants and shops, which are surrounded by woodland, open grassland and sandy beaches.

Really relaxing break only thing we found was site very expensive and if not using all facilities you couldn't use camp restaurant or pub but other places very near to campsite but had to drive out so would be better if day passes could be obtained other than that would recommend as very clean plenty of space fur babies really enjoyed walks and field where you could sit and watch the world go by

This means you don't have to bring extra utensils etc. as with a standard caravan. The large fridge freezer is a lovely bonus. There is a lovely decked area too that you can sit or eat a meal on. The owner has provided games, books and dvds also to keep everyone entertained. The caravan is also close to the shore edge, and there is access to a nature reserve and beach area at the edge of the caravan park. The on site facilities are good too ( though didn't try the restaurant), passes for this is extra ( currently around £20 each). The local takeaways and cafes are excellent and this location is great for exploring further afield too. If you have dogs , note that in summer Morecambe beach is restricted for them, but half moon bay is not. Had a lovely stay and would come again.

It is the nicest caravan we have ever stayed in. The owner has thought of everything and made it so comfortable and homely. We took our 7 year old granddaughter for a short break and normally she stresses about everything but at Sunflowers she was totally at home and didnât want to leave. The location is perfect. Do not hesitate to book here, it is perfect. We will certainly be booking again!
