Pewit 970 Posted July 21 Report Share Posted July 21 Any recommendations for long weekends away in August? I would prefer a nice lodge somewhere with lots of beautiful scenery and maybe a hot tub for good measure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tatsblisters 9,179 Posted July 21 Report Share Posted July 21 Had a week at Pine Lake resort some years ago just outside Carnforth and enjoyed it and it's not that far away from Windermere also had a few good nights in a few pubs there and found the locals friendly and helpful. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldn't say so mate. It's probably similar to that set up near clumber park with cabins and such like. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I would prefer a nice lodge somewhere with lots of beautiful scenery and maybe a hot tub for good measure. Kielder Lodges, Northumberland. Very well appointed log lodges, the forest with the Kielder Observatory , the lake and good fishing, which was free if you rented a lodge, not sure if it’s the same now. Decent restaurant and a heated pool . A few good pubs serving food in the area. And, of course, one of the UK’s biggest roe population’s……… Cheers. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
