With high tides during our stay the Arnside bore was amazing to watch each morning. The owners were very friendly and helpful though were away for most of our stay. Being only 5 ft 2 some of the cupboards and microwave were too high for me to reach so I suggested to the owners that a small stool would be helpful. A light over the mirror in the bathroom would also be useful. There is a small piano (if a little out of tune!) in the cottage so next time I would bring some music! Weâll definitely be back.

We spent hours sat looking at the changing views over the estuary. We enjoyed several visitors who came to join us for lunch and a glass of wine and shared the views. We love the new wine bar in Arnside and their pizzas are scrumptious. We went to Bob in cafe ,you can walk there from the apartment , lovely breakfasts. Leanne and Nick are wonderful hosts, we have booked again for next March but may be tempted to come back again later this year. John and Carol Higgins.
