Tucked away in the splendid village of Waddington, Lancashire is this thoughtfully-decorated Honeybee Cottage. Enjoying a great location nestled at the edge of the Forest of Bowland AONB, along the River Ribble, Honeybee Cottage is a delightful property for couples or two friends sharing seeking a stylish escape. Cross the threshold into a light and airy sitting area with light and airy interior, inviting plush sofas and a wall-mounted TV, it is the ideal spot to unwind in after a day of exploring. Prepare tasty dishes with your other half in the sleek kitchen with use of a superb range of appliances, sit down at the conservatory dining table and toast to a fantastic getaway.
As the sky grows dark, follow the stairs to the first floor where a luxuriously styled mezzanine-style double bedroom awaits, hosting a freestanding bath and luxurious en-suite shower room. Explore the local village where you can indulge a hearty meal and cold beverage in one of several pubs or restaurants ahead of venturing into the nearby town of Clitheroe, home to the impressive Waddow Hall and Clitheroe Castle Museum. Traverse the breadth of the Forest of Bowland AONB, peppered with walking and biking trails and home to Bowland Wild Boar Park and Browsholme Hall and Tithe Barn. Further afield, locate the cascading Scaleber Force Waterfall or plan a day trip in the market town of Skipton, home to Skipton Castle, a fantastic abundance of bars, restaurants, pub, independent stores, and boat tours where you experience the sites from the peaceful flow of the Leeds and Liverpool Canal.
Add a touch of opulence to your holiday with a stay at Honeybee Cottage.
North-west of Clitheroe and west of Skipton, in the Ribble Valley's hills and dales, is the charming community of Waddington. Waddington is a great hamlet base for a visit in this region because it has three pubs that serve food, two churches, a Post Office, and a bowling alley. The village consistently takes home the prize for Lancashire's Best Kept Village. Located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the Forest of Bowland is a tranquil retreat. The neighbouring market town of Clitheroe is well-known for its specialty stores of all kinds, including a sausage shop that offers over 75 different varieties! The region is a foodie's paradise, with numerous award-winning restaurants and country inns dotted around the valley, as well as a variety of annual events like agricultural exhibitions and day festivals of all kinds. Since the Lakes and the Dales are easily accessible from Waddington, this magnificent location has a lot to offer throughout the year.

The cottage was very warm and welcoming and the fixtures and fittings are of a very high standard. I was concerned about the possible lack of parking but we had no problem finding a space near the cottage. We had a very relaxing few days away.

Beautifully appointed, no expense spared. Everything you need for a relaxing break. The village of Waddington is fabulous and picturesque, great pubs serving fantastic food. Surrounding area is stunning and the town of Clitheroe is an easy 40 min walk to. Cant recommend Honeybee and Waddington enough.
Collin
we had a lovely time . The only negative was the TV in the lounge . the only station we could get was channel 5 , so no local news etc !! everything else you had to sign into. It also kept losing internet connection . A small bistro set would be usful fot sitting in the patio area .
