Seamlessly blending traditional and modern, this rural farmhouse is a true escape from it all. Tailor-made for socialising, we love the open-concept kitchen and dining areas making up the heart of the home, where in winter, you can soak up the warmth of the wood burner or in summer months, spill out onto the terrace. Locally, you’re just a short distance from the vibrant market towns of Clitheroe and Settle, while walkers and cyclers alike will adore Gisburn Forest, a mere five-minute drive away.

Home truths
While not all bathrooms are photographed, expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home.
The sixth bedroom is on the ground floor. It has a high-quality, king-sized sofa bed that sleeps two guests. When it's not being used as a bedroom, it doubles as snug.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance.
The ceiling in some areas is on the low side. It might not be suitable for taller guests.
We recommend a car to get the most out of your stay. There's private parking for eight cars here.
