·
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. |
