Netherwood Hotel Lindale Road Grange-over-Sands, LA11
6ET |
||||
|
|
|

|
|
The Netherwood Hotel is in the Edwardian town of
Grange-over-Sands close to the railway station with its access to the Lake
District. of which it is on the Southern edge. It is positioned high up the cliffs
overlooking the Morecambe Bay Estuary,
so rooms at the back of the hotel are not as light as those overlooking the
bay. The lift only reaches the first floor bedrooms. There is a gym free to
residents and a spa, discounted for guests —ask for a price list. Some of the
bedrooms on offer are in a separate building within the hotel grounds. Rock
House is a modern building accessed by a gravel path from the main building
or by car from a separate entrance on the main road and has its own dedicated
parking outside. Rock House has 4 en-suite rooms—2 with bay views and all
with private outside space. The Netherwood must serve the most elegant
breakfasts of any of my hotels. If you like plain and simple dinners, then
the Netherwood is not the hotel for you as the chefs can be quite
adventurous. Don’t sit next to the windows in the bridge room if you’re
easily distracted as the view is guaranteed to draw your attention! If you like to relax or read a book, the gardens have
plenty of seats and you can always take a drink from the bar with you. There are some interesting shops and a variety of cafes
in Grange-over-Sands or you can take a stroll along the promenade with its
flower beds sponsored by local businesses. Paddling is not advised as the
sands can be quite dangerous. Farther afield are the delights of Cartmel, home of the
sticky toffee pudding, or you can take a trip on the train to Arnside or
Windermere.
