Lapwing Lodge, Yorkshire

Lapwing Lodge is a cozy studio-style pod in Cockerham near Lancaster, Lancashire. This single-storey retreat sits on an eco-friendly site with wind turbines powering the entire farm. Perfect for couples seeking peace without sacrificing modern comforts. The owners even welcome you with homemade cakes – because nothing says "make yourself at home" like carbs.

Set in beautiful Lancashire countryside with alpacas and goats as your neighbors. The Farm Yard Brewery is just a 10-minute walk down a country lane – stumbling distance back if you sample too many craft beers. Blackpool's beaches and the stunning Lake District are both within easy driving distance. The Forest of Bowland (an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty) is right on your doorstep.

The lodge features an open-plan layout with a double bed, fully-equipped kitchen including induction hob, combi oven, microwave, fridge/freezer and dishwasher. The modern shower room has a walk-in shower, basin, heated towel rail and WC. Electric underfloor heating keeps everything toasty while WiFi and Freeview TV provide entertainment options.

Visit Lancaster Castle (15 miles, 25 minutes), explore Williamson Park (14 miles, 23 minutes), enjoy Blackpool Pleasure Beach (25 miles, 40 minutes), or hike through the Forest of Bowland (10 miles, 20 minutes).

Lapwing Lodge offers the perfect romantic escape. Soak in your private hot tub under the stars, cook dinner on the fire pit BBQ and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Who needs five stars when you've got this many actual stars above you?
