About Forton for Cottage Holidays
An Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the Forest of Bowland is popular for walking and cycling. For those who enjoy fishing, this sport can be enjoyed for a daily charge at Wharf Lake in nearby Foxhouses Park. If you want to spend time both in the countryside and by the coast on your self-catering break it’s just a short trip to coastal resorts such as Morecambe from Forton. Lancaster is also worthy of a trip out, with its castle, shopping areas free from traffic, St. George’s Quay and maritime museum. If visiting the small town of Garstang, you’ll see beautiful buildings and independent shops, and there’s a weekly street market. Garstang also has annual events such as the Children’s Festival and Arts and Music Festival to recommend it.
