Hare & Hounds, Grange Over Sands

Property Description

The Hare & Hounds is an absolute gem of a pub, located in the popular town of Grange-over-Sands which is civil parish located on the north side of Morecambe Bay in Cumbria. Grange is a pretty and popular resort with an Edwardian flavour and a mild climate. It is on the shores of Morecambe Bay, and from the 13th Century until the 1850’s, the major route from Lancaster was across the sands. In 1887, the coming of the Furness Railway encouraged the growth of Grange from a small hamlet to the town we see today. Travelling by road, Grange Over Sands is ideally located 13.1 miles to the south of Kendal, 25 miles to the east of Barrow-in-Furness and 28.1 miles to the west of Lancaster.
