Situated within easy walking distance of the village of Mellor, this delightful cottage is perfectly placed to visit some of the most well-known places in Lancashire. Mellor itself offers a traditional village pub, local shop, church and library. Positioned in the timeless landscape of rural Lancashire, the area is relatively undiscovered but is fast becoming known for its culinary delights with range of popular eateries and gastro pubs nearby. For a cultural experience, explore the two historic market towns of Clitheroe and Longridge, brimming with electric boutiques, fine restaurants and historic treasures. For the adventurous, walk part of the 70 mile Ribble Way, taking in the magnificent unspoilt views. Other local places of interest include Clitheroe Castle, Bowland Wild Boar Park and Browsholme Hall. Further afield, trips to Blackpool, the Lake District or the Yorkshire Dales are a must.

Step into the property and you will be welcomed into the modern kitchen which is well equipped with an electric oven, hob, microwave, washing machine and fridge/freezer. Moving through the property, you will find yourself in the cosy lounge with comfy sofas to curl up into whilst you watch your favourite film in front of the fire. After a long day of seeing the local animals in the surrounding fields and exploring the local area, the stairs will lead you to the first floor where you can find the bedrooms. The first bedroom is a restful double bedroom with fantastic views across the Valley. The second bedroom is a spacious twin bedroom. Also on the first floor is the bathroom which benefits from a shower over the bath and WC.

At the front of the cottage, you will find the patio area with garden furniture which is a great place to enjoy your breakfast, a light lunch or lazy summer evening whilst admiring the amazing views.

The cottage has lovely views from the rear and the ever-changing light on Pendle Hill is a delight. We found the cottage very comfortable and the owners friendly and helpful and we enjoyed our stay. Parking can be slightly awkward and may be a bit of a squeeze for anyone with a large vehicle. The sitting out area seemed rather bare and not very Read moreenticing . Overall, though, a pleasant place to stay in a quiet and peaceful location.

Response from Holiday Cottages - Thank you for your feedback. Parking accommodates two cars. We are sorry the weather didnt allow you to fully enjoy the outdoor area and the glorious views.

Lovely property, quiet peaceful location. Views are absolutely stunning. Owners were lovely and could not do enough to help....Ideal base for sightseeing and walking, village is very pretty and the pub looked very inviting, we just did not have enough time to sample everything.

Owners live next door and were very helpful. The cottage is a nice size and the location is good for walking to pubs. You can dog walk from the door but it wasn't as dog friendly due to the stiles requiring us to lift our dog over quite a few of them. The central heating is controlled via the owners, although they did respond quickly. but here is aRead more heater in the lounge and bedroom. Hide

The view, the view, the view - it will take your breathe away. Owners live next door should you need anything. Tip: if you are coming from afar, remember your teabags/milk etc
