Photo of Ludlow's Island Resort

“An idyllic lakeside resort on a private island. Set amongst a pine & birch forest, incredibly well-equipped multi-room self-catering cabins offer an authentic North West feel; think wood-burning fires, screen porches & outdoor decks. Food can be bought on-site or prepared. Made for families.”
