Property code: 40189

The wonderful lakeside location is perfect for water-lovers as this quarry boasts the UK's premier scuba diving centre and PADI dive school, so you can safely enjoy the water. The lodge itself enjoys stunning sunsets and views of the Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District. Roam the local trails by foot or by bike, or venture 10 miles into the Arnside and Silverdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty to go wildlife spotting. Lakeland Wildlife Oasis, Leighton Hall Estate and Jenny Brown's Point are all less than 7 miles, while the Lake District, Yorkshire Dales and Forest of Bowland are all within a 20-mile drive. Carnforth is less than a 10 minute car ride where you can walk around the vast array of shops or enjoy lunch at one of the many eateries.

Enter this lakeside lodge and feel welcomed by the rustic charm of this cosy holiday let. A mix of farmhouse-style furnishings and contemporary touches create a relaxed atmosphere. On the ground floor you’ll find the delightful open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, where you can socialise and catch up on favourite TV shows. The kitchen area has an electric oven and gas hob, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and balcony access, and there’s also a washing machine and tumble dryer in the utility room. Take your pick from three tranquil bedrooms. There is one super-king-size zip-and-link bed (which can be made into a twin on request) set on the ground floor. There’s a ground-floor shower room too. As you make your way downstairs, there’s a four-poster king-size room with an en-suite bathroom, and a super-king-size room (which can be made into a twin on request) with a shower room. Both with their own balcony overlooking the quarry lake.

Sit out on the balcony to dine with the scenic water and mountain panorama before you. There is also a wonderful private hot tub that you can request to use for a small cost upon booking this retreat. To conserve energy, the hot tub will only be available if pre-arranged.

We've had a lovely week in a comfortable, clean and brilliantly equipped lodge. Fantastic views, from the outdoor decking, super comfortable beds. Kids happy with smart TVs in each room and excellent wifi (and board games too!) , dogs happy with enclosed garden. Great location for lakes, nearby supermarkets. We could have stayed for another week anRead mored would love to come back. Also recommend visit to Kirkby Lonsdale a pretty village with riverside walks. Hide

Beautiful lodge set in an idyllic area, very well thought out, furnished with everything you need to guarantee a lovely relaxing break away. The location is very peaceful and beautiful. Only gave 4 stars for the location due to the need for a car. There some lovely walks but you do have to walk down a country road with no path. It's about 15-20 minRead mores drive to Kirkby Lonsdale which is lovely and Windermere is about 30 mins drive. Would highly recommend and will definitely return if we can. Hide

We booked a weekday break with Higher Clearwater because of 5-star reviews and pics, so were hoping the house lived up to reviews. To say the house exceeded expectations is an understatement.

The cottage was really beautiful, the beds so comfortable and facilities/equipment excellent. The outside terrace overlooking the quarry lake was really gorgeous, very peaceful. Felt at home immediately and will be booking again.

This lodge is amazing! It is extremely well equipped, very clean and comfortable. The welcome basket is the best we have ever received and is the perfect start to the holiday. The outdoor furniture and bbq truly make this outdoor living in the summer months and if its raining there is a comfortable sofa and a TV with sky and Netflix!
