I love going to this CL. Always made to feel welcome. Site is always immaculate and well maintained. The hedges provide an excellent wind break for the "windier" days. Excellent location for walkers in the local area with the canal and the sea front on your doorstep plus the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales are less than an hour away. Cycling locally is fantastic with hills or flat bits to suit all levels. As previously stated there are trains nearby but they have never bothered me and I'm a light sleeper!. Plenty of good restaurants on your doorstep (Chinese (Jimmy's), Indian (Far Pavillion) and Italian (Mia Italia) - all tested and very good) within a 1 mile radius plus supermarkets (Tesco, Sainsbury, Morrisons and Asda) within 5 miles radius. Locally there is a Londis and Spar within a mile drive.
