Hedgehog Lodge

About this property

Tucked away in the fabulous South Lakeland Leisure Village in Carnforth, Lancashire, is this superb lodge, Hedgehog Lodge. All-ground-floor and sleeping up to four guests, Hedgehog Lodge is an idyllic, pet-friendly retreat for a small family, boasting onsite leisure facilities and easy access to the scenic Lake District. Be welcomed into the open-plan living space, where you can look forward to lighting the electric fire and snuggling up on the plus seating, as you select your favourite film to watch from the Smart TV. Conjure up a delicious feast in the fully-functioning kitchen, which includes a gas oven, hob and grill, whilst your guests set the dining table and uncork and bottle of wine. Settle around the dining table to savour a delicious meal, before toasting to a wonderful getaway. Indulge in a refreshing shower, before popping on fresh pyjamas and heading to catch your rest in one of two well-presented bedrooms, a king-size with Smart TV and en-suite cloakroom and a twin with TV and DVD player, perfect for those lazy Sunday mornings! Wake-up and sip your morning coffee at one of the two decked, outdoor seating areas, as your canine companion stretches their legs at your feet, or perhaps enjoy a glass of wine and some good conversation in the evenings. Explore your local surroundings, where on-site you will find the excellent Waters Edge Restaurant and Bar, ideal for those evenings where you don’t feel like cooking, and superb facilities including a gym, an indoor heated pool, a beauty therapy suite and a steam room, the perfect treat after a long day of exploring. From the doorstep of the lodge, a plethora of walking paths await you; make your way through the varying terrains of the stunning Lake District. The keen anglers in your party will delight at the fishing opportunities on site, as well as the option to take to the large lake on board of a sailing boat. If you can tear yourself away, the town of Carnforth is just a short drive away, where you can marvel at the breathtaking landscapes at Warton Crag Local Reserve or let the kids blow off some steam in the lush Nether Kellet Playground, before tucking into a freshly prepared picnic. The unspoilt market town of Kirkby Lonsdale is also within easy reach and boasts wonderfully characterful shops, pubs and eateries, along with the historic Devil's Bridge and the beautiful scenery which you can get a full view of from Ruskin's View! Be sure to visit Pine Lake if you want to try your hand at watersports during your visit; choose from water skiing, kayaking and canoeing, or just enjoy a day with the inflatable water toys - fun for all the family. Children and animal lovers will be pleased to discover Greenlands Farm Village just a scenic drive away, perfect for getting up-close with the animals before stopping at the café for a spot of lunch and the farm shop for your evening meal's fresh and tasty ingredients. Just a little further is Kendal, with its fascinating ruins of its 12th-century former castle just waiting to be explored, as well as the Kendal Museum and Quaker Tapestry Museum which offer an informative insight into the towns past and tapestry heritage. For a refreshing break with loved ones, look no further than Hedgehog Lodge.

Resting just a short drive away from the delightful market town of Carnforth, is the superb South Lakeland Leisure Village.
