Willow Retreat

Rest and recharge in this stunning lodge surrounded by the picturesque countryside of the Ribble Valley. The property, which welcomes two guests, sits on the Lancashire/Yorkshire border and is a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts, with endless walks and cycle rides available from your front door.

Popular nearby routes include the hike to the summit of Pendle Hill, the waterside tracks and trails at Ingleton Falls, and the woodland rambles at Skipton Castle Woods (all within 20 miles). For a spot of retail therapy, journey into the historic market town of Clitheroe (11 miles) to potter amongst its independent boutiques and browse the bustling outdoor markets.

History enthusiasts will also be interested to visit the ruins of Clitheroe Castle, which is thought to be the smallest Norman castle in England. The stylish lodge sits alongside similar holiday homes on a peaceful, adults-only glamping site.

Once inside, discover a fabulous open-plan space with a beamed ceiling, statement wallpaper, and plush soft furnishings. At one end is a sleek kitchen area for whipping up hearty breakfasts and romantic dinners for two, which you can share outside on the patio.

In the evenings, snuggle up on the comfortable sofa to watch a movie on the Smart TV or read a few pages from your book. When it’s time for bed, a couple of steps lead up to a Shepherd’s hut-style, king-size bed.

Completing the accommodation is a contemporary en-suite shower room. Outside, discover a tranquil covered patio area with a BBQ stand and a choice of seating options, including a swing!

Soak in the hot tub, slip into the sauna, and cool off under the outdoor shower. You are welcome to enjoy the many on-site facilities, including a shared shed with a pizza oven and coffee machine, and a cosy cabin with a large, central fire pit.
