Perfectly located overlooking both Morecambe Bay and the fells of the Lake District, Carnforth is the perfect place to live if you love the sea and shorelines, mountains and moorland. Carnforth has both a cricket club and rugby club, both of which welcome players and supporters, and there are at least three golf clubs nearby. Local excursions on foot will take you to lovely Warton Crag, which overlooks Carnforth, and there are excellent walks along the Lancaster canal, which passes through quiet and peaceful countryside. The RSPB’s Leighton Moss Nature Reserve is a year-round haven for bird-life, and to the north-west of Carnforth is Arnside & Silverdale, one of England’s largely undiscovered gems, featuring a lovely coastline, limestone uplands, moors, woods and quiet villages.
