About this property

The Farmhouse - Laythams Holiday Lets Retreat

A mixture of old and new, the Farmhouse has been lovingly restored, keeping many of its original features, whilst offering practical and modern facilities. It sleeps up to 8 guests in 2 double and one twin bedroom upstairs, and a luxurious double sofa bed downstairs in the games room.

The lounge is upstairs with plenty of windows to take in the spectacular views from both directions. It has an open fire, TV with full Sky package and comfy sofas.

There’s a large fully equipped kitchen with induction hob, built in oven and combi-microwave, dishwasher and Belfast sink with trigger spray arm. We have stocked the kitchen for all you’ll need to feed a crowd, including baking supplies, slow cooker, Actifry and Nespresso machine. There’s cosy bench seating and a small cafe table.

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. This room also has a pool table, sofa bed, and shower room making it a diverse space to eat, drink, relax and possibly sleep in!

The Farmhouse and Cottage offer the perfect retreat within the charm of a 16th century Pennine longhouse. They have interconnecting doors, so each property can be used independently or together for larger groups. All properties are pet friendly .

The Farmhouse and Cottage benefit from gorgeous panoramic views, which you can enjoy from one of the several seating areas in the spacious yard, as well as preparing delicious holiday barbecues.

Laythams Farmhouse and Cottage is ideally situated if you’re looking to escape from the stresses of everyday life and retreat into the countryside. Even on incredibly busy days, we’re lucky enough to only have about a dozen vehicles passing the gates of the farm. Despite this, there are plenty of amenities within a short walking distance and an abundance of nearby activities to try during your holiday.

For a romantic break away look no further than our gorgeous Hayloft complete with private garden, Hot Tub, fire pit, sun loungers and hammock to relax in. You’ll be charmed immediately by the Hayloft’s splendid views of the beautiful Forest of Bowland, wood burner and luxurious ensuite bathroom. Intimate meals may be enjoyed outside at the private terrace, inside overlooking the glorious scenery, or nearby at one of the many excellent local country pubs and restaurants. Privacy, peace, luxury, relaxation, enhanced by great facilities, make this a perfect haven for any couple. Please be aware that we accept pets at the Hayloft on request.

The Lakehouse is the ideal discreet getaway for couples, families and groups of friends. Set over 3 acres with its own private woodland and lake, it’s easily accessible, yet off the beaten track. The perfect place to reconnect without giving up any of life’s luxuries. The Lakehouse is also the ideal venue for small scale executive think tank weekends and business meeting space.

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

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!

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!
