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.
