    We would definitely stay again.

  • "Springfield Cottage is a lovely place to stay, equipped with everything you need and a beautiful little garden at the back."

    The location is excellent...right in the centre of Chipping, but in a quiet spot. The parking is only a few minutes walk costing £3.30 per day which we paid for in advance - so we could come and go as we pleased without having to worry about tickets.

  • "Had a lovely stay at Springfield cottage - great accommodation in a lovely village."

    Well equiped kitchen and very comfy beds plus a sunny garden to enjoy. All felt very welcoming.Just a couple of minutes to a really great pub (friendly and good food), shop and cafe Beautiful walks from the door. Parking easy in the village car park and, for our family, didn't need to use the drop off option to the side of the run of cottages but sure this would be helpful for visitors with more bags...!! Thank you for the Easter treats - I would be very happy to come back to Springfield!

  • "I had a great stay in this central Chipping cottage, it is a lovely village with good local pubs and basic amenities."

    Surrounding area is very scenic for all sorts of treks ranging from gentle pastureland strolls to fell hikes - would recommend walks to Whitewell, Dunsop Bridge, Beacon Fell and Longridge Fell plus great walks around Gisburn Forest and Slaidburn if travelling a bit further afield. All the locals we met were very friendly too! Springfield Cottage is a spacious, attached property but there was no noise from neighbours. It was clean enough but wouldn’t describe it as immaculate; I travelled with a pet so it was well maintained enough for us. Open fire always a treat and fuel to start provided plus they also supplied milk, eggs, local cheese and dog treats! There was good instructions and plenty of suggestions and material for days out and the bed was very comfortable. Would highly recommend this cottage and area.

  • "Delightful stone cottage at end of terrace of three."

    Well equipped, very comfortable beds. Garden is beautiful and it is sunny to sit outside in the evening. Parking in the village is available, however it would be more convenient to park outside the designated garage. We unloaded the car on the road outside the cottage which is busy at school times. We would happily stay here again, Chipping is a very attractive village with some many old stone buildings.

  • "The property was lovely, spacious and had everything you would need for a break away."

    The owner had kindly left us cheese from the local area and some eggs from their farm. The cottage was clean and tidy for the most part. However, inside the kitchen cupboards, the kitchen utensils and equipment were not the cleanest and needed cleaning before use. The parking situation wasn’t great. The allocated parking space is very small and difficult to get in and out of (in a median sized car) and no on street parking outside. It was also located around the back of an adjacent property, making loading and unloading the car more difficult.

    Samantha - thank you for the feedback. I am glad you found it spacious and had everything you needed. We have taken on board all your feedback. The cottage is in an ancient village with narrow cobbled streets, as you say on street parking is limited. However, as well as parking for one medium sized car at the property, there is an excellent village car park very nearby. We include the details of the car park in our welcome pack. Thanks again for the feedback. Property Owner

  • "We loved everything about the cottage apart from the parking!"

    Not a lot to be done about that unfortunately. The cottage itself and its location were perfect. Everything which could be needed was provided and it would be an ideal property for a family.

    Thanks for your feedback and I so glad you enjoyed yourself. Sorry you found the parking so difficult. We were unaware that builders are working on a nearby property and their van being parked during the day is making it very difficult to get in and out of our parking space at the moment. Hopefully, all works will be completed very soon. For future visits, there is also an excellent village car park just a minute's walk from the property. Property Owner

    The only reason we would not recommend it is the parking arrangements. It was an extremely tight space necessitating weaving between several other parked cars.

    We are sorry you found parking difficult. During your stay the neighbours had builders working on their property. Building works are now complete and a new parking arrangement has been agreed with the neighbours which makes it easier to get in and out of our allocated parking space. There is also an excellent village car park just a minute away from the property. We do look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Property Owner

  • "Minor niggles, e."

    G. no non-stick frying pan, upstairs floorboards creak when someone is moving around in middle of night, so could disturb others, and adjacent car parking virually impossible. Better info needed about getting overnight permits to park on village car park. (my daughter was penalised because her on-line payment failed to be registered, though I believe this was recified). Fridge could do with being larger and better positioned. Otherwise, very satisfied indeed with cottage and surrounding beautiful area.

    Thanks for the feedback about the cottage. A new larger fridge has been installed. Full details of parking arrangements including overnight parking permits for the village are included in the Cottage information pack. Property Owner

Ideally situated in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty this property is ideal for couples or families looking to explore this scenic area of Lancashire.

The cottage is well-equipped and has a modern kitchen complete with a breakfast table for two.

Upstairs there are three pleasant bedrooms and a modern family bathroom.

Situated in the historic village of Chipping in the scenic Ribble Valley, you are only a few steps from the village pubs.

Whilst you are in the Sun Inn discover the story of colourful Lizzie Dean at this haunted pub and enjoy the hospitality at the Tillotsons, and if you do happen to count, there are definitely more steps on the way home!

Chipping is ideally placed as it has easy access to the dramatic beauty of the Lake District, the historic town of Lancaster, the bright lights of Blackpool and the seaside charm at Lytham and Morecambe.

Being on the edge of the ancient Forest of Bowland, Chipping boasts many beautiful local walks.

A trip up Parlick Hill and maybe watching the hand gliders catching the thermals is fun; galloping home down the hill, at speed, is even better!

The valley of the Trough of Bowland is close by, a stunning Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with dramatic scenery and an amazing spot for a walk, a cycle or a picnic.

A visit to the Inn at Whitewell is always a treat, and you might be able to do some celebrity spotting whilst you are there.

For the cycling enthusiast there is an opportunity to don your lycra (or not) and discover some hidden gems with a variety of circuitous routes, taking in moors, hills, coasts and cafés on the way.

Just outside Chipping, The Wild Boar Park (please check their website in advance) is a popular spot for children as it offers a play area, hand feeding the animals, tractor rides, as well as wild boars, so hand feed the lambs in spring and enjoy making dens in the bales of hay!

A little further afield is the market town of Clitheroe where a trip to the castle and museum on the hill is an interesting day out.

An ideally located property with plenty of things to do for everyone.
