This fantastic barn conversion, situated in a quiet village just 9 miles from Blackpool, is ideal for a family or group of friends – including up to two four-legged ones! Sleeping eight across four stunning bedrooms and with plenty of space for the pups to lounge, you could all soon be exploring the grounds of this superb property. Unwind with a spot of fishing in the large pond or go for a stroll in the wildflower meadow with the dogs in tow. They’ll be happy since the owners lay on a hamper of treats for them, so they have a pampered stay, too.
The property, which is one of two located on the owners’ grounds, is spacious and welcoming. The open-plan living area mixes traditional features and contemporary luxury perfectly; enjoy breakfast around the wooden table in the kitchen looking out into the garden, or relax in the evening with a glass of wine in front of the wood burner in the living room, the hounds curled up by your feet. The entire property is dotted with exposed wooden beams and large windows, reminding you of your beautiful surroundings at every turn. Or enjoy the private games room with projector screen and pool table.
If you can tear yourself away from the property, Blackpool and its pleasure beach are well worth a visit for kids and pups alike. Dogs can unleash their energy on parts of the beach while the children will love the Great Promenade Show. Take a wander around 256-acre Stanley Park, and even hire a boat to explore the large lake. If you prefer the city, visit Lancaster (17 miles) and take its self-guided ‘Curious About Lancaster’ walk that begins at the castle; sniff out the clues to learn about the city’s history. Don’t forget the Trough of Bowland (16 miles) that boasts stunning views almost 300 metres above sea level.
