About this property

This immaculate house sits on the edge of the village of Langho, amidst the stunning Ribble Valley. Thoughtfully designed with contemporary fixtures and fittings, Dewhurst House is a luxury pad for families and friends looking to explore this beautiful region of Lancashire. The kitchen/diner is the real heart of the home, boasting a stunning centre island flanked by integrated appliances and sliding patio doors that fill the space with natural light. The designated chef can dust off those cooking books and relish in a session of home-cooking, assisted by an electric oven, induction hob, microwave oven/grill, fridge/freezer and dishwasher. Take a seat at the breakfast bar for a quick snack or prepare the sleek dining table for larger feasts. Spend your down time in the spacious lounge, where you can cosy up on the sofas and admire the gorgeous views, or throw open the patio doors to allow seamless access to the generous garden patio space. The front patio is the place to be, come rain or shine; relax in the hot tub and immerse yourself in the bubbles, as well as the magnificent views of the Ribble Valley and beyond – you may even catch a glimpse of the local wildlife grazing in the wild flower meadow just in front. The bedrooms are situated upstairs and nothing short of beautiful with the master hosting a generous king-size double with a private balcony. The remaining bedrooms include two king-size doubles and a standard double, all tastefully finished with vibrant colours and sleek furniture. Each of the bedrooms comes with their own en-suite shower facilities and Smart TVs, so you can continue your favourite series to bed. This exquisite country retreat is ideally located in the Ribble Valley, close to the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, making a haven for walkers and outdoor enthusiasts. With secure bike storage, cyclists can meander along the winding country lanes through the Ribble Valley, Trough of Bowland and out toward the Fylde Coast. Why not treat the group to a sumptuous seven course tasting menu at the nearby Michelin star restaurant, Northcote, or head into the market town of Clitheroe and visit the browse a wealth of shops and the bustling market, stocking fresh and locally sourced produce. Explore the magnificent Clitheroe Castle, overlooking the town from its limestone mould or wander around the Museum and discover local history, heritage and geology. The picturesque village of Whalley is also close by, with some gorgeous wine bars and boutique shopping, plus a beautiful abbey to walk around. Nestled in a desirable position from which to explore Lancashire, Dewhurst House is a spectacular getaway, whatever time of year.vd

In Lancashire's Ribble Valley, a little rural community called Langho may be found. The village is divided into two halves, the old and the new. The new Langho was created when the railway was built in the middle of the 19th century, transforming it into a small but nevertheless active commercial centre. Since the Old Langho church was deemed to be too far away, the new church of St. Leonard was constructed in 1879. However, since the construction of the A59 roundabout, even the new church is now somewhat isolated. The historic area of the hamlet is regarded as a true gem, rich in history for tourists to discover. The mediaeval church of St. Leonard was constructed using masonry from Whalley Abbey, which was destroyed in 1537 on Henry viii's orders. The village has a few little stores, a school, and pubs and restaurants. The larger area, however, has a wealth of attractions to explore, such as Longridge Fell, which is located at the southern tip of the Forest of Bowland aonb. Its summit is perched above a patch of wild forestry and offers stunning views to the north and west, particularly of Fair Snape Fell and the Trough of Bowland. The Dean Clough Resevoir offers further walking paths as well as cycling and mountain riding with some breathtaking scenery, while nearby Whalley offers wonderful walking at Spring Wood and has a fantastic golf club. There are several stores and restaurants in Clitheroe, and you can also visit Clitheroe Castle while you're there. Only 15 miles away in the small village of Turton, on the outskirts of the West Pennine Moors, is Turton Tower, a typical English country house that displays remnants from the Tudor and early Stuart eras. This magnificent region of the North West has a lot to offer, whether you feel like taking a leisurely stroll, going out on a wild night, or learning a lot about history. It encompasses a charming village where you may base your vacation.

    The views are spectacular and it was lovely to feel like we were in a secluded location. The owner sent multiple messages with “rules” for whilst we were staying at the house - requesting full names and ages, telling us there were to be no visitors or parties, must be left clean etc. We have no issue with this we’d booked a lovely house and we’re more than willing to look after it and respect it. We do this type of break every year. However, we finally arrived after following the directions that had been sent to us - which were incorrect, to a bin full of used sanitary items, a cooker with old chips inside the door and greasy baking trays. So not quite what we expected from the messages we had received. In addition, the house was freezing! It was below freezing outside but the rooms inside were only about 15 degrees at the most. Our kids sat covered in blankets and we spent most of the weekend in the kitchen as it was the only room we could get warm. We contacted the owner and were told to turn the heat down elsewhere to get the lounge warm - it was already cold everywhere but we tried this and just ended up with the only warm room being cold too. The lack of any other form of heating meant it just wasn’t comfortable and cosy. In all, we had a great weekend, but for what we paid I’m not sure if we would return in the future.

    No hot water. Heating was very hit and miss.

    The owners took time to message me and explain properly about the house and how to use things. Beautiful surroundings and the hot tub was great. Nice touches with the tea, coffee and milk left by owner for us. The only slight problem was the shower in the upstairs main bathroom didn’t drain well so had to shower quick so it didn’t over flow. Also the shower in the room with the yellow bed leaked out the glass shower screen at the bottom as the floor filled up quickly as well. Two other en suites worked fine. Other then that everything was great and would definitely recommend to others and stay again myself. Thank you x
