To the front of the property, open fields stretch out, and you may even catch a glimpse of the nearby Leeds and Liverpool Canal, which has direct access just a two-minute walk away offering many lovely walking routes and multiple food serving pubs.
Just a ten-minute walk away, the owner’s wellness retreat offers the opportunity to book private holistic therapy sessions such as yoga, reiki, sound baths and mindfulness practices. These sessions provide a wonderful way to unwind during your stay (pre-booking and additional charges apply).
