Company information

Welcome to The Sanderling guesthouse from Dave & Meru who took over the property in November 2020 in the middle of a Pandemic. We started an extensive renovation programme in January 2021, renewing the kitchen, downstairs accommodation, a new dining room and a new bar. We even gave it a new name, formerly the Silverwell and now The Sanderling - named after a local wading bird which has various different plumages. All the rooms on the top floor are now en-suite, comprising of a family, a double and two single rooms - all of which are newly decorated .

In addition, you cannot fail to be mesmerised by our sunsets, which are said to be some of the world's more dramatic sights. Our hotel currently has six rooms available with another five being modernised along with a new bar (August ) and new dining room which has been moved from the basement to the ground floor making it a lot brighter and more airy with the centerpiece being the mural of Morecambe Bay Morecambe is an ideal touring resort for the Lake District, Yorkshire Dales and other areas of great natural beauty.
