Description
A delightful stone-built cottage in the heart of Chipping, Lancashire, with a private south-facing garden, perfect for couples, friends and families of up to six.
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.
There is a separate dining room where everyone can gather together over a family meal and chat over the day's events, and the sofa bed in this room adds extra flexibility for an additional occasional guest.
Enjoy the open fire and its welcoming atmosphere in the comfortable sitting room or step outside to enjoy a refreshing drink on the sunny patio.
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.

What guests are saying
Had a lovely stay in Springfield Cottage.
First night was chilly as matches had gone walk about and lighter didn’t work, but a quick message to host and instructions for turning heating back on were sent and lighters were delivered the following day. Cottage had everything we needed and was very homely, comfortable and ideally located. Village was lovely, plenty of on street parking so didn’t need to use the pay and display at all. A short drive got us to many other places to visit, but if an escape is what you’re looking for this is a great location, with everything you need close by. Would happily visit again. Pub is welcoming and village shop worth a visit.
A lovely cosy home from home .
Good contact with owners and a lovely village with very friendly people. The garden was nice and secure for our dog and I bet was lovely in it's full glory. It just needed a little tlc at the end of the season. A good pub round the corner and a very nice place for a weeks break.
Very nice little cottage that was clean, tidy and well presented.
It was well stocked with cutlery, plates, pots and pans, etc. We felt relaxed and at home from the moment we arrived and until we left. Thank you for the welcome gifts.
