Location
10 Swan House is situated alongside the Tewitfield Marina near the Lake District National Park. The cottage sleeps four people and has one double bedroom with an en-suite shower room, one twin bedroom, a bathroom and an open plan living area with a fitted kitchen, dining area and sitting area with doors leading to a balcony with furniture.

Situated just a few miles north of Carnforth on the border of the Southern Lake District and the Western Dales is the Lancaster Canal village of Tewitfield Locks. This newly developed 'hamlet', with its own moorings, gardens, children's play area and popular country pub and restaurant, is developed from the original canal locks and the recent addition of a marina. Activities available nearby include an educational farm with its own craft centre, café, bakery and butcher's shop as well as walks through rolling countryside, the Lakeland Wildlife Oasis and the tropical hall and butterfly house. Other great days out include a trip to Dallam Tower, Levens Hall, Leighton Hall, Sizergh Castle, and the Great Lakes Aquarium. Grizedale Forest and its excellent footpaths and cycle routes is also within easy reach.
Impressive mountains, open fells and clear-water lakes, the Lake District has it all. From walking in the mountains to exhilarating watersports or just a gentle cruise on a steam-powered yacht, Cumbria is the perfect holiday destination.
Reviews of 10 Swan House
"Fantastic place to stay, right on the marina, and walking distance to a hotel for food. Dogs welcome and great for walking as its right on the canal. Perfect for an overnight or week long stay."

"10 Swan House was immaculate in every way. Exceptionally clean and extremely well fitted out. Very peaceful looking out at the marina although I imagine it will be busy in the summer months. The food in Longlands Inn was excellent with a good variety to choose from and reasonably priced so we ate there every evening. "

"Stayed here for one week in August upon arrival we were very impressed with the quality and cleanliness of this house very well laid out and looking out onto the marina, we loved just watching the canal boats coming and going. You get a bit of noise from the motorway but not enough that it spoils it in any way, you are a two min walk up to the longlands hotel which does nice food and very good pizzas good beer as well. We liked it here so much that we are going back for a long weekend in September. There was no wi fi when we were staying but there is a room behind the office with wi fi and the pub has free wi fi as well, they are putting the wi fi in sometime soon."

"We loved it here and the accommodation was as good as any timeshare wghich is what we've been used to. In fact it was better than a lot. We were so near the water it was like being on a boat and there were many places of interest round about. The cottage was well furnished and the kichen was well equipped wuith everything we could need. Three Tv's 0ne in each bedroom and the lounge. For me the only complaint was that could have been bigger as I have an eye and hearing problem but that's me and we solved the lounge one by moving the furniture bit I couldn't see the one in the bedroom because I couldn't see the subtitles. We are elderly so having to go upstairs to bed was a bit difficult but there was a toilet downstairs which helped. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place."
