The Details
This grand, spacious home offers a stunning retreat for up to 16 guests in the beautiful Lancashire countryside. With striking interiors and wonderful outdoor social areas, this home-from-home offers big groups of family and friends plenty of room to spread out and unwind in style.
What was once a stone barn is now a modern getaway with abundant luxurious touches and fantastic access to the surrounding countryside. When you arrive, you’ll want to head out into the garden right away. Here a spacious patio has lots of comfy outdoor seating where you can catch up with loved ones over a drink whilst gazing out at the view. Light the firepit and stay toasty and warm as the sun begins to set. There’s also a lovely alfresco dining table here that’s ideal for warm summer lunches or evening drinks as the stars come out above and a lawn where kids can play.
Inside, the beautiful family room on the ground floor has gigantic floor-to-ceiling windows and a high ceiling that flood the space with natural light. Lots of big comfy sofas mean you can gather here together for evening drinks, whilst the garden views ensure you remain connected nicely to your peaceful surroundings. There’s also a wood-burning fireplace should you wish to warm the room up and create some rustic ambience.
When it’s time to cook, the showstopping Mark Wilkinson Cooks kitchen has everything you need to prepare delicious meals. This vast, beautifully designed space features a four-oven AGA, gas hob with wok burner, American fridge-freezer with ice maker, granite worktops, a sleek oak breakfast bar, wine fridge and combi oven microwave. Whether you’re rustling up breakfast or hosting a celebratory feast, this kitchen brings serious style and functionality to your stay. There’s also a BBQ and pizza oven in the garden, should you wish to cook outdoors.
Take your meals in the sun room that features an open-plan formal dining space, complete with a magnificent stone fireplace and roaring open fire. An impressive oak table seats up to 20 guests, making it perfect for long, sociable dinners. If you fancy some peace after dinner, head to the separate lounge that invites you to sink into sumptuous sofas beside a cosy wood-burning stove. An oak bookcase, stocked with a generous collection of books, adds to the warm, inviting atmosphere.
Sleeping arrangements at the property are ideal for families and groups, with five beautifully appointed ensuite bedrooms. On the ground floor, there’s a bright and spacious family room with a double bed, single bed and trundle, plus an adjacent shower room for added convenience.

Completing the setup are two stylish double bedrooms, both with king size beds and ensuite shower rooms.
If you decide to venture out and explore, there’s plenty of marvellous countryside nearby. The Lancashire countryside offers a perfect mix of natural beauty and outdoor adventure. Explore the rolling hills of the Forest of Bowland, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, ideal for hiking, cycling and wildlife spotting.
