Rainbow Cottage

Rainbow Cottage sits quietly in the village of Aughton near Ormskirk, offering a relaxed, welcoming base with the feel of a traditional, comfy country home.

It’s the sort of place where families or groups can settle in easily, with plenty of space to unwind after days spent exploring this characterful corner of Lancashire.

The house blends style with warmth, creating a retreat that feels both practical and inviting.

Step inside to find a well-equipped kitchen ready for anything from hearty breakfasts to big family dinners, while the formal dining room sets the scene for gatherings that stretch long into the evening.

The sitting room brings everyone together, centred around a woodburning stove that promises calm, fire-lit nights after bracing coastal walks or afternoons discovering local towns.

Upstairs, three bedrooms offer flexibility for a range of groups, while the fourth bedroom rests in the tranquil garden house.

The bathroom, complete with a walk-in shower and a bath, keeps everyone comfortable, whether you’re preparing for a day’s adventure or winding down for the night.

The enclosed garden is a real highlight, with a patio and lawn that catch the afternoon sun and a private hot tub perfect for easing tired legs.

It’s a proper little haven for al fresco meals, quiet reading, or simply sitting out with good company.

From the doorstep, you’re perfectly placed to enjoy the best of the area.

Aughton and nearby Ormskirk offer an easy-going mix of independent shops, cafés, and essentials.

Southport, with its sweeping sandy beaches, Victorian pier, and coastal walks, is easily reached by car, while Liverpool draws you in with its museums, galleries, music history, and bustling waterfront.

Chester, with its Roman walls and timber-framed streets, makes an excellent day out too.

Finally, for a delightful bite to eat, Solo and Moor Hall are both nearby, with both being Michelin-star standard!

Combining a peaceful setting with great access to coast, countryside, and culture, Rainbow Cottage promises a memorable escape shaped by comfort, character, and simple pleasures.
