A separate laundry and utility room are next door to the kitchen, leading on to another downstairs room, which has a dining table set in the big window to take in the view of Easington Fell.

Amazing holidat

Had the loveliest holiday at the farmhouse - eight of us stayed very comfortably in the house and had lovely walks in the local area. You will absolutely need a car if you don’t want to be walking over an hour to the shops/pubs/restaurants but Clitheroe town is lovely and only a 20 minute drive away. Thanks so much for having us!

A great family break in a lovely farmhouse

The Farmhouse was excellent for our party of 6, 5 adults and a 9 year old plus 3 dogs. The location was beautiful looking over very picturesque scenery. We were greeted by Paul and the whatsapp instructions for collecting the key and times for arrival were exactly right. The farmhouse kitchen was equipped extremely well for a large group. The sitting room had plenty of seating and a wonderful open fireplace with a plentiful amount of logs. The farmhouse hot water and heating were just right. The bedrooms were very comfortable. The downstairs wet room, although quite small, functioned very well for someone with difficulty stepping over the bath upstairs for the shower. The only negative would be the creaky floorboards upstairs especially in the second bedroom and the very creaky door hinges to the bathroom. I suppose thats acceptable for the age of the property. It was a lovely stay, thank you Victoria and Paul

About the host

Hosted by Host

Host profile image
The 16th century Longhouse, which has now been split into the Farmhouse, Cottage and Hayloft has been in the Wenner family for over 50 years, gradually evolving into what it is today. The Lakehouse, a truly unique labour of love, really reflects the Laythams ethos of living sustainably and within nature.

A perfect solace for those who need wide open spaces, quiet starry evenings and plenty of good walks! We cannot wait to meet you, and share all the things that make Laythams so special to us!
