2 Bedroom Cottage in Carnforth

A stylish, contemporary, Lancashire cottage, this delightful retreat is set right by the vibrant canal. Sleeping four guests, the two-bedroom escape, which is 9.5 miles from Lancaster, enjoys views out over the water from both inside and out. Perfect for couples or a small family, especially if they have a pet in tow, the two-storey hideaway is in a great location for walks beside the Lancashire Canal and for exploring the Yorkshire Dales and Lake District national parks. From the cottage, venture 6 miles to the beautiful, sandy stretches of Silverdale Beach or 10 miles to explore the National Trust’s handsome Sizergh Castle, with its beautiful gardens and parkland estate. Plan a day out to Windermere, 21 miles away in the Lake District. Book tickets for a boat cruise or board a steam train at Lakeside so you can soak up the scenery from the water or along the shores.


Let yourselves in to find modern, light-filled accommodation that has been designed with its marina side position in mind. Leave your walking boots in the hall, where there is access to a WC, and wander on to emerge in the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. With floor-to-ceiling glass across the end that pulls the canal views right inside, this room opens up to your covered patio. Find everything you need in the kitchen space to help you whip up delicious meals with your own ingredients. Gather around the circular, glass table to enjoy your feasts before heading off on your next adventure. Settle on the soft seating, positioned around the eye-catching, glass-topped, tree-stump coffee table, to catch up on your favourite boxset on the Smart TV or gaze out to watch the barges as they drift by. When your pillow calls you to a superb night’s sleep, make your way up to the first floor of the cottage, where your king-size and twin bedrooms are positioned. The king-size bedroom has an en-suite shower room. The family bathroom is also at this level.


Open a chilled bottle of wine and sit out on the patio on fine evenings – it’s a lovely spot for breakfast on sunny mornings too. There is off-road parking for two cars available.
