There is an abundance of walking routes for all abilities in the surrounding countryside, taking you up to the top of Pendle Hill where the views stretch out right across the Ribble Valley - you can even see the Yorkshire Peaks and Fylde Coast out in the distance on a clear day. Cycling enthusiasts will absolutely love the winding country lanes and undulating hills. The Pendle district of Lancashire is famed for its connections to the Pendle Witches, and there are plenty of ways to immerse yourself in the fascinating history behind it including the spooky gift shop based in Newchurch, the Pendle Heritage Centre in Barrowford and Pendle Sculpture trail. The Pendle Way walking route starts in Sabden offering plenty of scenic walks from your doorstep, taking you past the famous ’lairs’ of the Pendle Witches. Wycoller is also nearby - popular for its Bronte connections. The picturesque hamlet is steeped in history and is home to the 1000 year old Clam Bridge across the Wycoller Beck, which is now listed as an ancient monument. The bustling market town of Clitheroe, which is considered to be the capital of the Ribble Valley, is just 4 miles away. Here, the streets are strewn with bunting and are home to a delightful selection of boutique shops, cafes, wine bars, pubs and restaurants. You are also within easy walking distance to two friendly local pubs in Sabden, which are perfect for a bite to eat after a busy day or a swift drink before heading off on a scenic walk.

Delightful!Caroline & Marcus are lovely & such helpful hosts. Everything is provided & really too generous. Fittings & utensils are all high quality. Outside areas snug & very private.Location is at the foot of Pendle Hill, the centre of ancient witchcraft although we were unable to catch sight of any & maybe they cast a spell on photographs!Would love to visit again in good weather.Enjoy,Joan & Charles..
