I genuinely enjoy hosting on because it allows me to meet people from all walks of life and create memorable experiences for them. There’s something very rewarding about turning a space into a warm, welcoming environment where guests can relax and feel at home. I take pride in the small details — from thoughtful touches to local recommendations — that make each stay special. Hosting has also given me the chance to share my local area, culture, and personal style with others, while continuously learning from the stories and perspectives my guests bring. For me, it’s not just about offering accommodation — it’s about connection, hospitality, and making people feel cared for.

I love hosting my lodge because it allows me to share the charm of Hest Bank and its stunning surroundings with others. My property is just a minute’s walk from the beach and close to the Lancaster Canal, where peaceful walks and beautiful views are part of everyday life. Set in a friendly village with the historic city of Lancaster and its castle nearby, it’s also the perfect gateway to the Lake District — making it ideal for those who want to explore both coast and countryside.
