WHATS ON

Oakdean Cottages are so cosy and relaxing you might not want to get up and get out.  

Luckily, self catering means you can enjoy whatever means holiday to you. Have a lie in and laze around enjoying the view or set your alarm for an action-packed day. There's a lot to see and do in and around the Ribble Valley!

Here are a few of the highlights..

WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY

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.

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.

WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY

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.

WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY

We stayed at Hodder Cottage for a few days in September with our 82 year old mother who has limited mobility. The cottage has no steps and you walk straight outside, onto the patio and into the gardens. Sue and Ian were extremely helpful and supplied a shower seat for our stay. The cottage is simply but beautifully decorated, spacious, clean and the kitchen is very well equipped. Ian and Sue are only a phone call or txt away should you need any help or information. We really enjoyed our stay.

WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY

My wife and I have just returned from our wonderful relaxing and comfortable stay at Calder cottage.
Great location for food lovers as there's an abundance of great restaurants with in 5 to 15 minutes drive from the cottage which is also well serviced by local takeaways. Where the cottage sits means there is no light pollution so great for star gazing and watching the rising sun light up the valley below if you're an early riser.
But for me personally and maybe not for my wife is that you are no more than 12 minutes away from more than a dozen really good golf courses. Whalley, Great Harwood (9 hole), Wilpshire, Clitheroe, (18 hole) Mytton Fold (not for the faint hearted) to name a few. We will definitely be return customers. Thanks to Anna, Ian and Sue for a wonderful stay.

WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY

My husband, son and I stayed in the Ribble Cottage for 4 nights mid August and we were blown away with it. The owners were so lovely and left bath toys for our son and a box of toys for him to play with. The accommodation is so well appointed, the facilities are great and the space was just perfect. Beds comfy, shower/bath water pressure was great and all the extra bits the home comes with, makes your stay easy and comfortable. It is also secure and feels so safe, plus the location and views are just beautiful. We will definitely be back to stay. Thank you 🤩

TERRI TITMUS-ROLFE

Milton Keynes, UK

WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY

We stayed in Hodder Cottage for three nights in August as we were attending a family wedding locally.
The cottage is in a beautiful secluded spot, peaceful and tranquil. The cottage was spacious and immaculately clean. The kitchen was probably the best equipped I have ever stayed in and and we have stayed in quite a few! Would not hesitate to return. If you are thinking about booking, I would say DO IT! you will not be disappointed.

WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY

This is our second stay at Calder Cottage. We were fortunate to get a late booking. My family is from Burnley and this is a perfect location for us to catch up with friends and family. I can only echo others’ comments. Exceptional cleanliness and comfort and welcome. The Ribble Valley is so beautiful and Oakdean is a calm and peaceful oasis. Big plus - it’s all on one floor. No lugging cases upstairs.

CHRIS FAULKNER

Coventry, UK

WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY

This was our 5th stay at Oakdean Cottages, Hodder cottage was in immaculate condition as always and I have to say Oakdean Cottages are the best cottages we have stayed in by far. The views and surroundings are stunning! The beds are the comfiest beds we have stayed in and this time round I so wish we could have stayed longer! The cottage is always cleaned to an extremely high standard and has everything you need and more. The children loved seeing the Alpcas and chickens this time round too. Anna, Ian and Sue are always very welcoming and nothing is ever to much. Lovely touches such as fresh flowers on arrival in the little vase and lovely touches such as books on the local area which are always lovely to read, even with me being from Lancashire I learnt a little more this time round . Looking forward to our next stay in December already!! 😍

WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY

Another wonderful stay in Ribble cottage in the beautiful Ribble Valley. Immaculate accommodation and peace and quiet guaranteed. The cottage has everything you could possibly need with Ian and Sue on hand to assist with any problems. This is our 8th visit and won’t be our last. We love it.

KATH FREEMAN

WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY

What a lovely stay in Hodder Cottage. The cottage is absolutely immaculate, with everything you could ever need. The grounds are so quiet and the owners lovely and welcoming. My children loved seeing the alpacas, chickens and ponies next to the cottage. There are also lovely local towns and villages to explore. I can’t recommend Oakdean Cottages enough to anyone wanting to stay in the Ribble Valley. My little boy was upset to be leaving, but hopefully we will be back for another stay soon.

HAYLEY

Staffordshire, UK

WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY

This place is just perfect. We spent 5 nights with 2 other families in the adjoining cottages and enjoyed the privacy and space and stunning views across the valley. Ian Sue and Anna made sure that our stay was extremely comfortable and stress free. We were even able to have a family BBQ on one of the days with other members of our families joining us. There is so much to do here that we didn’t have time to fit it all in so we will definitely be back. Thanks again
