If your ideal holiday involves the chance to escape the bustle
of modern day living, indulge in culinary delights and relax in high quality
surroundings, then the Ribble Valley in Lancashire is the place for you, and
offers luxury cottage accommodation. In fact you will be in good company as it
is reputed that in the biography of Sarah Bradford that the Queen has expressed
a desire to retire to this area of the country.
The Ribble Valley, whilst still relatively untouched by tourism has been
acknowledged by all who visit for its beauty, with its rolling hills and rivers.
Clitheroe is a quiet Market Town with its twice-weekly markets. The Norman
Castle Keep was constructed by the De Lacy family around 1186. It became a
Royalist Stronghold during the Civil War, Cromwell ordered it to be dismantled
so that it could never be used again.
In the distance is Pendle Hill; associated with the Lancashire Witches, in
nearby Newchurch-in-Pendle is the famous Witchery Shop. Edisford Bridge is a
very popular area with its Riverside Café, seating by the river, an ideal place
for the children to paddle whilst you relax.
There is a small recreation area with a miniature Railway and a Pitch and Putt.
Across the road is the Ribblesdale Swimming Pool.
Dunsop Bridge village is the nearest to the centre of the United Kingdom
according to Ordnance Survey. BT put its 100,000th phone box there in 1992 as a
mark of recognition.
The village of Downham is now familiar as the backdrop for the BBC night drama
series Born and Bred, also the famous film Whistle Down the Wind from times gone
by.
The landscape around Stonyhurst has also gained popularity through the discovery
that it may have provided inspiration for J.J.R.Tolkien’s ‘Middle Earth’ in
‘Lord of the Rings’.
If you enjoy walking, cycling, golf, fishing, shopping, heritage, culture or
simply relaxing in a place where you can still wander without seeing a soul, the
Ribble Valley has something to offer you.
