• "The Stables is a very comfortable, clean and well equipped cottage."

  It is centrally located in Clitheroe, with parking next to the property and all that the town has to offer an easy walk away. Clitheroe is a very welcoming place with a good range of shops, pubs, restaurants and a fantastic market. Local buses are frequent and the train service runs hourly. What’s not to like. This is our third visit to the Stables and to Clitheroe and we'll be back to both again in the near future!

  Thankyou Gaynor, glad you had a good stay and look forward to your return Property Owner

  Located in a superb location in the centre of a thriving market town this is one of the finest cottages we’ve rented. Clitheroe is an excellent location with lots of independent shops and a variety of eateries offering a wide range of food choices. I have no hesitation in highly recommending both the wonderful cottage and a very special town.

  Thankyou James for your wonderful review. I could not ask for better! Best Wishes Claire Property Owner

  Everything you need and plenty of it. The beds are extremely comfortable. I was worried about it being behind a pub, but I never heard a sound all night, even with the window open. The Market place is right behind with a Market on most days. Clitheroe is a booming little town with lots of shops.

  It’s warm and comfortable with a well equipped kitchen. Parking is very easy and its location in the centre of Clitheroe is great. The market is almost on the doorstep and the pubs and cafes/ restaurants are welcoming. Despite being right in the town centre we have never been disturbed by noise or traffic. Clitheroe is a very friendly town with great walking in lovely countryside only a short distance away.

  Many thanks to Claire for her kindness in view of the awful weather and for the extras she provided, (the Prosecco was very much appreciated) we couldn't have asked for a nicer stay.

• "Lovely cottage."

  Close to town centre. We didn't need to cook here as we were staying over for a wedding however, it looked like there was everything you'd need. Cottage has old characteristics with modern facilities. Looked like relatively new kitchen and bathroom. Very comfy. Tea, coffee, milk etc were very welcome. Only downside is that it was advertised with 2 parking spaces, which we needed, however we couldn't fit the 2nd car in but luckily we were still able to park close by. Would stay again if needed to be in the area again

  The listing should have said that the property had no private space such as a courtyard or garden. This could have been important for families with children but not a big deal for us though. The lock on the front door was rather difficult to turn, needs adjustment or lubrication. We found the duvets too heavy for summer weather.

  Public transport (train and bus interchange) is an easy 5 minute walk away. Shops, bars, restaurants - minutes away. Look straight up to the tower of Clitheroe Castle from one of the comfy leather sofas in the living room. The ground floor has a well equipped, clean and spacious kitchen diner, with a proper dining table and chairs - thank you. Everything you need for self catering, with nice crockery and glassware. Spacious, warm and comfortable lounge. Upstairs, two immaculate and comfortable double bedrooms, one is particularly spacious. Good beds, pillows, linen and towels (even face flannels). The huge bathroom has separate bath and shower. This is a cosy, but not poky, cottage. The central hearing kept the whole place toasty warm in the cool evenings. Good, safe car parking by the side of the cottage. Lots of nice little touches by the owners, such as quality hand wash and lotion, welcome pack so you can have a fresh brew (with lovely biscuits) when you arrive or (my preference) a glass of chilled fizz! A real gem of a place. Highly recommended.
