Site
Superbly located two miles from the southern border of the English Lake District and overlooking Grange-over-Sands and Morecambe Bay. The imposing Victorian Grade II-listed mansion has been fully restored and provides a perfect base from which to explore this unspoilt area of exceptional natural beauty.

Dating from 1853, the manor house has been sumptuously restored, incorporating the original features of yesteryear with levels of comfort and luxury. There are nine apartments in the mansion and 46 new cottages and apartments.

Properties
The grade II listed Manor House dates back from 1853 and comprises 9 Apartments. A further 46 cottages and apartments have been built in the grounds. All are fully equipped and furnished to the Bond's high standard.

The property is in Grange-over-Sands, a seaside resort that has retained its Edwardian charm. You truly feel as if you are stepping back in time here, with its pedestrian-only promenade, popular bandstand and lovely ornamental gardens. Even the shop fronts have stayed the same!

Windermere, Coniston Water et al are easily accessible, while for the more urban-minded, the city of Lancaster – often and unjustly overlooked in the guidebooks – is just a half-hour drive away. There is a selection of dog-friendly holiday homes to let, and we also welcome kids and young families. Enjoy our on-site steam room, indoor swimming pool, children's playground and even crazy golf. There is plenty to see and do both at Merlewood and in the surrounding areas, all of which you can enjoy from the comfort of your luxury holiday property.

Exclusive holidays for life
An initial payment from £5,000 and a quarterly fee of under £38 (that is around £150 a year), which can increase in line with but not exceed the Retail Price Index Excluding Mortgage Interest (RPIX), gives you access to all HPB’s holiday homes. For each HPB holiday, you will pay a no-profit user charge covering only property running and maintenance costs and use of on-site facilities. The average charge is the same throughout the year, and for a studio is around £360 a week and £540 for a two bedroom property. Larger properties are also available. After an initial charge of 25% your money is invested in a fund of holiday properties and securities. The fund itself meets annual charges of 2.5% of its net assets at cost, calculated monthly. Your investment return is purely in the form of holidays and, as with most investments, your capital is at risk. You can surrender your investment to the company after two years or more (subject to deferral in exceptional circumstances) but you will get back less than you invested because of the charges referred to above, as well as other overheads and changes in the value of the fund’s properties and securities.
