Tucked away on the generous grounds of the picturesque South Lakeland Leisure Village rests this delightful Scandinavian log cabin, Hawthorn Lodge. Set across one level and comfortably sleeping up to six guests, Hawthorn Lodge makes for an idyllic base for both families and friends looking for an escape to The Lakes.

Be charmed by the contemporary interior of the fabulous open-plan living space, with high-quality furnishing and décor, offering a warm and welcoming setting to enjoy your staycation. Kick off your shoes and settle down for a moment of peace in front of the television, unwinding with a cup of tea following a day full of adventure, or if you're lucky enough to experience the warmer weather, head outdoors and soak in your peaceful surroundings as you toast your favourite tipple to an unforgettable holiday. The designated chef will be delighted by the fully-equipped kitchen tucked away in the corner of the sociable space, housing a range of modern amenities including a handy dishwasher and washing machine; cook up a storm and gather together around the dining table to recount the days adventures as you indulge in your culinary delights. As the evening draws to a close, you're spoilt for choice between three thoughtfully laid-out bedrooms, a double room, benefiting from it's own en-suite toilet, alongside two snug twin rooms, each providing ample storage to house your belongings. In the morning, kickstart your day with an invigorating rinse in the walk-in shower, stylishly positioned in the contemporary family shower room, before heading out for the day. Get better acquainted with your surroundings and explore the generous grounds of the 43 acre site, soaking in the peaceful setting with a leisurely stroll along the banks of the tranquil lake, fully-stocked for a day of fishing, working up a sweat with a session at the gym, or swimming a few lengths as the little ones make a splash at the indoor swimming pool; after working up an appetite, enjoy a delicious meal and a refreshing drink at the on-site bar and restaurant. A short stroll will take you into the village of Warton, where you can explore the heritage of Warton Old Rectory, a 14th-century stone house, hike to the summit of Warton Crag Local Nature Reserve, rising dramatically above Morecambe Bay and offering panoramic views from the top, or if you time it right, catch a race at Warton Stock Car Club. Venture further afield and visit the popular market town of Kendal, where you'll find the medieval ruins of Kendal Castle along with a host of attractions to keep you entertained, including Kendal Museum, the 18-hole parkland course at Kendal Golf Club, and the gallery and theatre of Brewery Arts. Explore the delights of the North West with a stay at Hawthorn Lodge.
