Carnforth is the kind of location everyone has heard of, and many wish to discover, because it is situated just off the M6 and 20 miles south of the picturesque Lake District. Located at the head of Morecambe Bay, north of Lancaster (a historic town), 15 miles from the winding roads of the Yorkshire Dales, and only a hop, skip, and a jump from the Lake District, it is centrally located. Greenlands Farm Village features shops selling handmade goods and regional foods, a children's section, a café, and a garden centre. Beautiful Morecambe Bay may be found immediately to the north of Carnforth, with its tidal sands. This wonderful part of Lancashire is perfect for long, relaxing strolls and animal watching. The historic market town of Kirkby Lonsdale is a must-see.

A lovely lodge, well equipped and comfortable. The ducks and rabbits are a delight to watch. Also milk,biscuits and Prosecco were very welcome. Our only problem was our dog who escaped through the slats on a fastened gate, we did catch him but had to keep an eye on him after that !!!
