After a night of partying, why not enjoy a cosy film night in the property’s private cinema with cinema seats, a popcorn machine and large wide-screen TV, a perfect way to unwind with the family? Or, if you’re looking for relaxation, take a dip in the outdoor hot tub while the kids blow off steam at the garden’s table tennis table. Further peace and tranquillity can be found at the island’s spa and private sauna, or if you have keen anglers in your party, you might choose to take some quiet time by the river’s edge with a spot of fishing, taking advantage of the property’s private license.
The sleeping accommodation is spread across four floors, from a ground/first floor (accessed down a set of stairs via the kitchen) that holds a twin room with an en-suite bath, a further double room and a twin double room with shared access to a shower and WC and finished off with a unique barber shop area with two authentic barber shop chairs and mirrors to ensure you stay groomed on your holiday!

A further twin room, a shared shower room, a large bedroom with two double beds, two twins, and an en-suite complete the floor, perfect as a sleepover room for kids and older children.

Nestled in the charming rural setting of Halton, Lancashire, Lux Escape rests upon a private island with views of the Lancaster hills, River Lune and Otter Island. The property is set within a lush green landscape of private gardens, and the surrounding woods open to a lake and riverbed with a pretty beach giving access to the water.
With a plethora of amenities, it will be hard to tempt yourself away from Lux Escape, but there is much to explore in the local and neighbouring areas. Hire yourself a bike from Leisure Lake Bikes in Lancaster and explore the district’s extensive cycling routes with a mixture of flat and hilly rides to challenge all abilities. The Lune Valley borders the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and offers unspoilt cycling starting just a few minutes drive from Lancaster.
Morecambe Bay is well worth a visit, with a sweeping coastline and views of the spectacular Lakeland Mountains, a perfect spot to sit on the promenade with fish and chips and take in the view. Afternoon tea can be taken at the iconic Midland Hotel for delicious cakes and sandwiches, and it would be rude not to take a photo opportunity at the statue of a funny man and local hero, Eric Morecombe, found on the promenade.
Soak up some local history with a guided tour of Lancaster Castle, where you can take in over a thousand years of rich heritage. Suppose you’re looking to learn more about the local area. Why not visit the Lancaster Museum, where you will find collections of fine art, porcelain and artefacts that date back to the 1600s, housed within a stunning Georgian building?
Set within the area of Arnside and Silverdale, you will be tempted with endless opportunities to get out and explore the outdoors. Heralded as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, drive to Arnside to access the Information Centre that will lead you to the best walks, cycle routes and spots to enjoy the wealth of wildlife, superb walks and stunning scenery.
Take advantage of your waterside location by hitting the river with your kayak or paddleboard. The River Lune provides a favourite spot for the paddling community. For those looking for some adventure, Halton Rapids are a popular spot for canoeing fans. Local John OGaunt Rowing Club runs courses and free taster sessions for those keen to take to the water.
