Description
Carnforth 2 miles. Sitting across the road from the South Lakeland Leisure Village, on the outskirts of Carnforth is this fabulous, single-storey, detached lodge of The Bobbin, Number 11. An enticing base for a family of four's holiday in Lancashire, not only do you have access to a range of local, picturesque towns, but you're within driving distance of a range of National Parks.

The bathroom can be found close by and enjoys contemporary fittings, ideal for when you need to enjoy a refreshing shower or relaxing soak in the bath.

What guests are saying
Caravan was clean tidy.
New kitchen and wardrobe units. Park is peaceful and quiet.
I enjoyed staying at the Bobbin.
It was warm and comfortable, with everything I needed for a week's stay. It is ideally located for easy access to towns such as Milnthorpe and Carnforth and also for stunning walks on Arnside Knott, Dallam Tower estate and close by, Warton Cragg. The Bobbin feels spacious with lots of storage space and the kitchen was well equipped with utensils. There is constant and instant hot water and on the cooler evenings, an electric fire in the living room provided extra warmth. Internet access was easy and useful. The site itself was very quiet and secure and the ducks provided lots of entertainment.
We loved our week at The Bobbin.
The property is clean and comfortable, and the Leisure Village itself is incredibly peaceful and relaxing. It was nice just watching the rabbits and ducks playing around in the mornings, while we were getting ready. Bus 555 stops a few mins walk away and runs from Lancaster to Keswick, stopping at Carnforth, Kendal and Windermere on the way, so you can explore quite a lot without needing to drive. The Lancaster Canal is also a few mins walk away and Warton Crag Nature Reserve is less than 2 miles away, so plenty of walking opportunities too. Highly recommended :)
