positive:
Really good accommodation.
Clerk Laithe Lodge is modern in style and scrupulously clean with staggering countryside views. *Laithe is a Viking word for barn and that's what the building was until 2013 when it was lovingly transformed into this super B+B.
positive:
Drink in the atmosphere.
Breakfast and other menus for afternoon tea and evening dinner are impressive and appealing. They are matched only by the reality of the food that is served. At breakfast, for example, there's as much as you can eat and tea and coffee is of a good standard. Naturally, there is, throughout, an emphasis on freshly sourced, local produce. They've thought of everything … there's even a fridge in the dining room. Stocked with drinks, just help yourself and enter drinks in the Honesty Book.
positive:
Great hosts and location.
Welcoming hosts ensure that you've got everything you need and they're on hand to advise on places to visit during your stay. It's a true home from home atmosphere … if only home was this good! Part of the fun is exploring the area yourself, but if you want guidance and advice, just ask. Away from the glorious countryside, it's only a few miles to the busy town of Chorley (*famous for its castle … and cakes!). Nearer ‘home', there's an excellent local pub but, watch it! - at some times of the year, it isn't open every day.
