Lovely Lancashire
Ribble Cottage in the Ribble Valley was highly recommended by friends who regularly stay. The cottage is exceptionally clean and comfortable. The location is well placed for walks from the doorstep to Deanclough reservoir including Clitheroe Castle and Holmes Mill where delicious food & drink await. A drive through the Trough of Bowland is so picturesque plus an icecream in the pretty village of Downham.
Howarth and the Bronte Parsonage offers walks on the moors, steam railway and independent shops.
So much to see and explore. Looking forward to returning.

Perfect holiday home
We absolutely loved staying at Ribble cottage. We stayed for 3 weeks where Anna, Graham and Ian were excellent hosts - providing the perfect balance of privacy and space but always there if we needed. Anna welcomed our children and made their holiday extra special with a huge box of toys for them to enjoy whilst at the cottage - this was greatly appreciated, thank you.
The cottage was immaculate and had everything we could need. The grounds are stunning and nestled in the countryside.
We will definitely be staying at Oakdean Cottages again.
Thank you so much x

Wonderful holiday cottage, beautiful area.
A wonderful cottage, extremely clean & modern, set in beautiful well kept grounds. No noise from cars etc, quiet & peaceful, a stunning garden surrounded by mature trees & lots of wildlife. A credit to the manager Anna who is very pleasant & helpful. The cottage is in a beautiful area with the most breathtaking views from the entrance road. Nearby pretty villages, most have fantastic pubs who serve excellent food, you really are spoilt for choice in this regard. Northcote Manor Michelin star restaurant is less than a mile away. The Rum Fox at Grindleton is worth a mention, fantastic food & service. I would highly recommend staying at Oakdean cottages if you appreciate high standards in a holiday home, a quiet beautiful location, a very pleasant owner who is very responsive if needed & a truly breathtaking area in the Ribble valley. Clitheroe town is 15 minutes away for all your grocery needs. Many pretty villages all within easy driving distance. Great area for walkers or foodies. Ribble cottage was perfect for us, we will return.

What a gem of a place
Thank you again for a wonderful stay. This is our second time staying in Calder Cottage with our dog and it’s really like home from home for us. We stayed for three nights and didn’t want to leave, it’s such a gorgeous comfortable place. So quiet and peaceful and well equipped. Ian came to see us when we arrived and left - such a nice guy. We will definitely be back and can’t wait to see the fantastic views from the garden over the Ribble valley.
Thank you again

We had a lovely stay in Calder Cottage - everything you need and warm and cosy and the owners are very friendly - The Lord Nelson is a short walk a way for food and drink and Angie's Famous Cheese and Onion Pie! We hope to be back soon !

Perfect place to stay in Lancashire
We have stayed at this venue numerous times over the years and absolutely love it. The cottages are warm and have everything you need and spotlessly clean. The location is perfect for eating out at the number of gastropubs nearby. It is well positioned to drive to Manchester for football and shopping. Also ideal for driving into Whalley and Clitheroe. The owners are always delighted to help especially if you have forgotten something. We will definitely be returning.

Our 2024 Lancashire Visit
We came to the area to see our grandchildren. We stayed in Calder Cottage which is a comfortable cosy cottage enjoying all the amenities that you want in a holiday cottage. It is in a beautiful setting with lots of countryside to explore and places to see. The owners are very friendly and welcoming but not intrusive. The weather could have been kinder but we still got out and about. We have stayed in many holiday cottages with our dogs and this cottage is up there with the best. We plan to visit again.

Fabulous half term break
A lovely cottage that is perfectly set up to make our stay very comfortable. There were 5 of us and the cottage was very spacious. It's incredibly clean and everything was well looked after.
Location is very good and we had plenty to do during our stay. Thank you.

Another wonderful stay
Another wonderful stay in Oakdean Cottages. This must be our 10th stay in these beautiful cottages. Ian, Sue and Anna are such hospitable hosts and are on site in case of any concerns. Ribble cottage is really well equipped with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. Peaceful and quiet yet close to the most amazing pubs and restaurants and the Everyman Cinema in Clitheroe. A trip to the Lord Nelson pub at the end of the road is absolute must. Will look forward to our next trip. Can thoroughly recommend.
