Dunlin Haven

Families and groups of six will find Dunlin Haven works well for a week away, with three bedrooms spread across one floor and two bathrooms to share the morning routines. One well-behaved dog can stay free. The layout centres on a kitchen with a full range of appliances flowing into a dining area where you can eat looking out towards Morecambe Bay, and a living room with a smart TV and those same views over the water. The master bedroom has an ensuite; the other two bedrooms are a kingsize and a pair of singles.

A large balcony with outdoor furniture is the main draw outside—somewhere to sit with breakfast or a drink while you take in the water and woodland beyond. Parking for two cars sits on the grounds. Essentials like heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and wifi are covered; there's also a welcome pack and extras for your dog. The property is no-smoking throughout.

Dunlin Haven sits in Sandside, at the edge of the Arnside & Silverdale National Landscape, close enough to Storth and Arnside to make use of their cafés and walks, with Rock + Run nearby for more active days out. The location suits people wanting to explore the bay and surrounding countryside without the drive back to town each evening.
