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.
