1-Bedroom Hot Tub Cottage in Lancashire

Make time for just the two of you at this Hodder Valley hideaway in the Forest of Bowland National Landscape. Bring your bikes for quiet country lanes and hills that will work your muscles, or simply mosey around the fells before retreating to a nearby pub for a pint and a meal.

The rural village of Newton-in-Bowland (2.5 miles) is worth a visit for the beautiful Grade II-listed bridge and pretty lanes, while Clitheroe (10 miles) offers brewery tours and tastings at Holmes Mill. In Skipton (23 miles), take your afternoon tea afloat on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal before visiting its iconic castle and exploring its shop-lined streets.

For more adventures in wild landscapes, head to the Yorkshire Dales or Lake District for a day of village hopping and scenic drives. The entrance opens into a modern studio, with the living and sleeping areas on one level.

To the left, a deep sofa sits beside a corner wood burner – the ideal place to unwind after outdoor adventures. Sleek kitchen units run along one wall, with an electric hob, combi microwave/oven, fridge with ice box, and dishwasher.

A breakfast bar with stools faces the window, giving you somewhere to dine while enjoying woodland views. To the right is the king-size bed, while a separate en-suite shower room with a WC completes the interior.

Outside, the patio has a hot tub for relaxing soaks, alongside a BBQ and seating for drinks in the sunshine. Private parking for two cars is available, and you can book the retreat alongside a similar property if you’re travelling with friends.
