The hot tub is for the use of guests aged 16 and over. There are steps in the garden leading up to the hot tub pathway, but there are no stairs inside the cottage. Both the hand wash and hair & body wash are luxurious Bath House products in the rich Patchouli & Black Pepper scent.

Lindale is an easily accessible village for those travelling by car, with main roads providing convenient access to the M6 and the surrounding Lake District.  
  
The Neighborhood:  
  
Situated in the South Lakeland area, Lindale is a charming, lesser-known gem that captivates visitors with its rich history and natural beauty. Originally named Lindale-in Cartmel, its history dates back centuries and evidence of its past can be seen in its well-preserved buildings and quaint lanes. The village was traditionally a farming village, although its most famous resident was John “Iron-Mad” Wilkinson, an ironworker and inventor who lived in the village from 1750 where he owned the Castle Head estate. He produced the iron for and helped design the world’s first iron bridge (at Ironbridge and Broseley) and made the world’s first iron boat in 1787\. A large iron obelisk stands in the village as a memorial to him.   
  
On the rolling hills surrounding Lindale, spectacular views of the Lake District fells can be found. The scenic landscape invites leisurely walks and exploration, with opportunities for birdwatching and wildlife spotting. Lindale is home to the beautiful St. Paul’s Church, a Victorian-era architectural gem with beautiful stained-glass windows and intricate stonework.   
  
Lindale’s proximity to the nearby village of Grange-over-Sands and the greater Lake District National Park means it serves as an excellent base for outdoor enthusiasts interested in hiking, cycling, and water activities.  
  
Getting Around:
