About the Area

Nowadays it seems harder than ever to discover those unspoilt places that are truly far away from the pressures of modern life.

The Forest of Bowland, a Designated Area of Outstanding Beauty, and the surrounding countryside is an ideal location for anyone who is interested in outdoor pursuits, particularly walking, cycling, bird-watching, and many others.

In the area you will find picturesque villages such as Chipping, Scorton, and Dunsop Bridge which is officially recognised as the 'Centre of the Kingdom'. There are market towns like Garstang, the World's First Fairtrade Town, and Longridge offering traditional pubs and individual shops selling different local crafts and produce.

Within easy driving distance is the historic city of Lancaster worth visiting to see the Castle, the Judges Lodgings and other museums of interest. Further afield are Manchester and Liverpool offering a wide selection of historical architecture and fascinating attractions.

The local coastline has the varied range of attractions from the vast expanse around Morecambe Bay, a renowned breeding ground for birds, and a paradise for bird-watchers, to the thrill and excitement of Blackpool with its famous tower and the top tourist attraction in the UK, Blackpool Pleasure Beach. Also within easy reach are the National parks of the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales.

Whether you are seeking a peaceful retreat, looking for a Countryside, Coastal or City type of break, or a base for an action packed holiday, we are sure that we can help you to find the ideal property to make your holiday a truly memorable time.
