There's games and toys available for kids (and those young at heart!) as well as a curated Lancashire Library featuring tales, authors and recipes from the county. There are several walks right on the doorstep of the property, and the area has always been popular with locals and visitors alike. There are also plenty of cycling routes nearby. The Ship Inn is on the opposite side of the canal bank, and boasts a fantastic reputation in the local area for serving quality food and beer. If you fancy a night in, an honesty bar is available with wines and spirits. There is a keypad on the front door for easy self check in and parking available right outside the front door. We are pet friendly, as are many of the pubs in the local area, including The Ship Inn opposite! Parking available at the front of the property for one large car or two small/medium cars. Keyless entry - we'll provide you with an access code prior to check in, so you can arrive at any time that is convenient for you.
