Walkers will want to stride out on the Ribble Way or the popular Tolkien Trail (6.5 miles) – a 7-mile walk through the countryside that inspired the famous author. Experience the historic market town of Clitheroe (9 miles), where you’ll find superb shops, excellent restaurants, art and craft galleries, and a regular market, all overlooked by a Norman castle.
Another great day trip is to Browsholme Hall (13 miles), a landmark property dating back to the 16th century, which offers guided tours as well as extensive grounds and a tearoom. Enter the spacious hallway and head into the lounge, where an array of soft seating surrounds a wood burner and a Smart TV – perfect for snuggling up after a day in the fresh air.
If you want a quiet moment, head to the snug, which also boasts a Smart TV and a wood burner. This cosy room flows into the country-style kitchen, where you’ll find plenty of equipment for whipping up group meals, including a range-style cooker and a microwave.
This room includes a breakfast table for four, while the conservatory dining room boasts a long dining table for 12, which enjoys delightful views over the garden and the countryside beyond. On this level, there’s also a super-king-size bedroom (with zip-and-link beds which can be made up as a twin on request) with a step up into an en-suite shower room.
The remaining bedrooms are all on the first floor, offering versatile accommodation to suit an array of guests. The super-king-size bedroom on this floor has another en-suite shower room, while the other four bedrooms share two bathrooms: a family bathroom with a shower over the bath, and a separate shower room.
