Built by a local manufacturer to a bespoke specification, it’s one of a kind on the park. You notice it as soon as you walk in.

The kind of weekend this lodge is built for looks something like this. You wake up in the master bedroom behind its sliding barn door, the park quiet outside. Breakfast at the island in a kitchen that actually has the space and equipment to cook a proper meal. Afternoons out on Windermere or walking the Silverdale coast. Back by early evening, wine open, the electric fireplace on, no particular reason to go anywhere else.

The open-plan room does that effortlessly. At 42ft x 20ft beneath a vaulted ceiling, the kitchen, dining area and lounge all sit together without any of them feeling compromised. The slate blue shaker kitchen with marble-effect worktops and pendant lighting is the centrepiece. The slatted wood feature wall and large TV anchor the lounge end. The deck outside gives you open views across the park for the mornings and evenings when you don’t want to be indoors at all.

Two bedrooms, two shower rooms, sleeping four. The twin room is well-proportioned and comfortable. This works just as well for two couples as it does for a couple who want the space.
