The hot tub was good fun as well. Ddownsides were the standard of the outside furniture and outside in general. The table and chairs looked quite old and either needed stripping down and revarnishing or replacing. Other properties had better gardens with pagodas including lights around the hot tub. This property had an old awning hanging over the tub. Security wise anyone could have joined us in the garden as there was no fence around the property unlike all other buildings. Also just to mention inside the lounge windows were a collection of dead flies and spiders which had not been touched by the cleaners. Understand in summer it is difficult to stop flies getting in but this hadn’t been touched for a while. That said we had a great time and with a few tweaks this could be an amazing place to stay.

‘Our Becks’ hen do was inevitably going to be special with lots of laughter and fun and games !!! The ‘hens’ consisted of mostly ‘youngies’ and three ‘oldies’ ( I was one of the latter) !! What a brilliant time we all had. The house was very large with 5 bedrooms (all ensuite) with and an added toilet downstairs with a well equipped kitchen utility room and spacious well seated living room. Beautiful place set in large outside area - with a hot tub !!! We had the most amazing week end -would I recommend it ? Absolutely!!!!

Great open plan space made it extremely sociable at all times. The only minor downside was the hot tub was not big enough to fit all 10 of us in due to its design. Our girls break is an annual trip and so far with the last 6 holidays we have always managed to fit us all in.

In the living area there are three couches. All have seen better days and one has no original cushions on the back which makes it rather uncomfortable. As the cottage sleeps 10 there isn't enough comfortable seating for everyone in the evenings so some have to sit on wooden dining room chairs. Also the hot tub only fits 6 in comfortably so this should be published on the web site. The garden furniture needs a coat of varnish too. However, despite these things we had a lovely week at Duddle Cottage and would recommend it.

Mrs Wilson, August 2018
“The cottage was lovely - the only issue we had was due to the hot weather , the heat in the hot tub was unbearable even when we put the canopy over it - however, we called the team to see how we adjusted it and it needed a panel to be removed so the guy came out and did it .”

It was absolutely perfect. All her 5 bridesmaids stayed with her and there was plenty of room for them all to get ready and enjoy the time together. Amazing. The only problem was that one of the oven doors fall off on the first day - minor problem.

We stayed here as a family group of 6 for a pre Christmas get together, with ages ranging from 40s to 80s. We found the property to be of a high quality finish with good bedrooms, bathrooms and facilities. The open plan kitchen/ lounge/ dining room was perfect for our get together - the cooks were always part of the party. We loved the position and views from this cottage, looking out over the valley. Parking and on-site staff were good.The only negative we had was that other parties in neighbouring houses were noisy enjoying the outside hot tubs until midnight/ 1am. This disturbed the sleep of our party in the rooms nearest the noisy property.

About the location

RIBCHESTER

Blackburn 7 miles; Clitheroe 9 miles; Preston 11 miles.

The village of Ribchester is encircled by green hills and lies in a curve of the River Ribble mid way between Preston and Clitheroe. It is a pleasant jumble of multi-coloured stone cottages in long twisting terraces. It has three pubs, the White Bull, dated 1707, the Black Bull and the Ribchester Arms and the award-winning Chinese restaurant Yu and You Restaurant and Bar. The White Bull has a porch canopy supported by four columns said to be from Roman ruins. The village takes its name from the River Ribble and the fort of Bremetennacum (the walled town by the Ribble). For this reason, Ribchester has been seen to have a purely Roman foundation, but excavations in 1977 showed that settlements going back to the middle Bronze Age existed in the area. An Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the Ribble Valley is a rural haven of spectacular scenery, diverse natural habitats and historical legend, a place of almost incomparable peace, where adults and children alike can enjoy the simple pleasures of the outdoors without the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Longridge is easily reached, a unique town with plenty of interesting shops and tempting eateries, described as 'big on character' by the Sunday Times and ranked in their '101 Best Places To Live In Britain'. Nearby Clitheroe is famed for its specialist shops of all types, including, amongst others, a sausage shop that sells over seventy-five different varieties! A gourmet's paradise, with award-winning restaurants and country hotels situated throughout the valley, and annual events including a number of agricultural shows and day festivals of all types, this fantastic location has plenty to offer at any time of year!
