Loudview Barn

Type: Self-Catering

Cloudberry and Windberry are stylish holiday cottages contained within a sympathetically converted former stone barn. Cloudberry sleeps four people in a double bedroom and a twin bedroom. In Windberry 6 people can be accommodated in a double bedroom, a twin bedroom and a bedroom with bunks. In addition a cot can be provided for babies. Both cottages offer spacious and comfortable accommodation, equipped to a high standard with towels and bed linen provided and central heating available, if needed. Both Windberry and Cloudberry enjoy large enclosed gardens, overlooking the valley. Indeed, the design was recognised for a design and conservation award. The sitting room in Windberry also benefits from a wood-burning stove, logs for which can be easily obtained locally and the original roof trusses are exposed in both properties. The barn conversion is surrounded by pastureland and its peaceful location is some 100 yards from the nearest trafficked road. The water comes from our own spring, high up on the fellside, and is pure and untainted by chemicals. The stunning location on the slopes of Longridge Fell in the Forest of Bowland AONB offers spectacular views across unspoilt Countryside. Panoramic views stretch from the North Yorkshire Dales in the east to the Fylde Peninsula in the west and the Irish Sea beyond. The Forest of Bowland is one of England's undiscovered gems, offering a remarkable combination of natural beauty and tranquility. It offers a unique blend of high moorland, criss-crossed with dry-stone walls, and rolling countryside, covered with green meadows. There are a number of top class restaurants and pubs offering excellent quality food to suit all pockets. Should you wish to eat in the cottages, we offer good quality home cooking, by arrangement. Despite their seclusion, Cloudberry and Windberry make wonderful bases for exploring many of the highlights of northern England. The Lake District and North Yorkshire Dales are both within easy reach and yet Manchester and Liverpool can both be reached in less than an hour, with museums, art galleries, theatres and all the facilities you would expect from these cities. Cloudberry and Windberry are easy to get to being just 15 minutes from the M6 and for visitors from further, Manchester and Liverpool airports are only an hour away and Blackpool airport even closer.
