Grange Over Sands is a resort town in northern England known for its charming traditional atmosphere and mild climate. Located to the north of Morecambe Bay, Grange Over Sands hotels provide comfortable accommodations for visitors interested in exploring the area and having easy access to nearby Furness Peninsula and the English Lakes.
What started out as an isolated fishing village during the Victorian era grew into a popular seaside destination when the railway arrived in 1857. Until then, the only way to get to this isolated village was to navigate the treacherous Morcambe Bay. The buildings in the town are built of local limestone adding to its character and historic atmosphere whichever Grange Over Sands hotels you stay in.
One of the country's first sanatoriums opened just a few miles from the village in 1891. Spring water and clean, salty air were believed to be therapeutic for people suffering from tuberculosis and other similar ailments.
The Hospice sits at the highest point of Hampsfell and features panoramic views of Lakeland Fells, the Isle of Man, Blackpool and the Pennines. Hikers must navigate a four-mile trail with two steep but short portions through Eggerslack Wood to reach the observation point. Once there, the views stretch out on all sides.
The Cumbria Wildlife area is accessed from Humphrey Head, just a short drive away. The walking trail there gives hikers views across the bay. Grizedale Forest, in the Lake District, is a place where visitors can spend an entire day exploring the trails, forest sculptures and observation points. The Ridding Wood Trail with its suspension bridge across the woodland gill is suitable for people of all abilities. The North Face Trail is an adventurous 16km loop for mountain biking. Grange Over Sands hotels will be able to help you with routes, etc.
The village of Cartmel sits by the River Eea about 3.5 km northwest of Grange Over Sands. The Cartmel Priory was founded in 1190 by the 1st Earl of Pembroke. The gatehouse and the priory church are the only surviving buildings from the original monastery. The oldest portion of the church is the Piper Choir, which stands under the original roof. The gatehouse, built in 1330, is now a National Trust property.
Popular attractions are just a short drive away in Furness and South Lakeland, near our Grange Over Sands hotels. Holker Hall is a stately mansion owned by Lord and Lady Cavendish. The neo-Elizabethan mansion is set against the Lakeland countryside and surrounded by lush Victorian gardens incorporating formal plots and natural woodland spread out over 25 acres. Lord Cavendish oversaw the initial planting of the natural parkland during the late 18th century.
Holker Gardens was improved during the early part of the 19th century with the addition of a conservatory, a walled kitchen garden, an arboretum and terraces with balustrades near the main house. Other highlights include a marble Neptune fountain from the 17th century, a grotto, a sundial made of slate and a stone labyrinth.
The Cartmel Racecourse is located on the Holker Estate. Though small, it has the longest run-in in all of Britain at four furlongs in length. Racing in Cartmel dates back to the mid 1800s.
Car enthusiasts of all ages will find the Lakeland Motor Museum near the Lake District a fascinating place to visit. Until 2010 when it moved to a new location by the river, the museum was housed in the stables at Holker Hall. The massive collection contains thousands of exhibits that cover motor vehicles of all types including motor cars, motorcycles, scooters and pedal cars. The Campbell Bluebird Exhibition honors Sir Malcolm and Donald Campbell. This father and son duo combined for 21 world records for speed on land and water. On display are full size replicas of various Bluebird vehicles like the Bluebird K4 and the K7 jet hydroplane.
The Granger Over Sands railway station is along the Furness Line and is housed in a restored Victorian structure built during the 19th century. Visitors can take a short train ride to Arnside. Walking trails there lead to the Knott with its panoramic views to Southern Lakeland Fells and Grange. Those who continue on the train in this direction will shortly come to Silverdale, Leighton Moss, Lancaster and Morecambe.
The RSPB bird reserves at Leighton Moss are the largest in Britain and consist of a massive reedbed that serves as home to several interesting species of birds, deer and lots of butterflies. Numerous hides and trails allow nature lovers to get up close and personal with the reedbed and its feathered inhabitants. One trail winds along a pair of coastal lagoons where the wading birds are often found. The visitor center has informative displays and the tea room serves homemade fare.
Along the railway in the other direction lies Ulverston. This market town is home to the Laurel and Hardy Museum. Stan Laurel was born in the town and a statue of the comic due was unveiled in 2009 in front of Coronation Hall. Hoad Monument was built in 1850 and is the most prominent landmark with an observation point that overlooks portions of the Lake District and Morecambe Bay. Residents of Ulverston refer to their village as Festival Town with annual celebrations devoted to Charles Dickens, beer, international music, comedy, walking and fashion, just to name a few.
The Keer, Kent, Leven, Lune and Wyre rivers all empty into Morcambe Bay forming a number of peninsulas. The tides in this area move quickly and the bay is known for the dangerous quicksand. Navigating the waters of the bay is so treacherous that for centuries a local guide has been royally appointed. Known as the Queen's Guide to the Sands, the guide receives no salary but is provided accommodations in the Guide's Cottage at Flookburgh, a structure that is centuries old and owned by the Crown. Before the first guide was appointed by the royal family in the 15th century, monks at the Cartmel Priory would aid people in crossing the sands.
Visitors staying in Grange Over Sands have easy access to a wide variety of activities and attractions. From nature walks around the scenic countryside to learning more about the history through museum exhibits and historic displays, there is something to entertain people of all ages.
