The property was in the most beautiful setting. It was a detached building housing 2 downstairs bedrooms. It was spotless and the staff were so lovely. It was warm and very welcoming. We included the breakfast and it was delicious

A lovely place to stay

We arrived just before they stop serving food due to a horrendous journey, were checked in quickly, the lady carried my bag up for me and we were assured we would be able to order food. We did and it was very nice. Both days breakfasts were good and served by a very friendly and cheerful lady. The only negative was we had called a taxi and asked the bar guys if the taxis take cards ( all ours do), they said no, I asked if I could get cash using my card there but the manager said no. The taxi charged us an extra £5 to take us to a cash machine. We enjoyed our stay and would return if we are ever up that way again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Calf’s Head, Clitheroe. We attended a wedding at a venue not far from here, so it was a great location for us. All the staff were helpful and friendly and the downstairs bar/dining was an asset to our stay. We both enjoyed a lovely full English the morning after with the option of fruit, cereals and yoghurts. The outdoor space here is gorgeous so would definitely recommend going here to enjoy it on a nice day. The only criticism I can give is that the ceiling in our room needed attention. It appeared to have damp or potential old leak stains, which could do with being cared for. Overall we had a really enjoyable stay and would definitely visit again.

I have literally done hundreds of reviews over 15 years with Expedia and this hotel is absolutely a top 3 contender. This is the BEST English country Hotel I have stayed at. The premises, staff and meals are superb. Do NOT bypass this hotel and I would even plan a trip to purposely include a visit. Loved every moment of our stay.
Stunning beer garden and views
