The Lakes railway station is located in the north of Stratford-on-Avon District in Warwickshire, England. The nearest settlement is the village of Earlswood. The station is named for the nearby Earlswood Lakes, which were a popular destination for daytrippers, and were the station's "raison d'être".
The Lakes features very short platforms lengths (only able to accommodate up to two vehicles), which means many passengers have to enter through the cab door. This station is a request stop, and passengers must make an appropriate signal to allow the driver to stop the train in order to allow them to alight.
