Overview
Property code: OC-V30960

This secluded lodge is a dream come true for couples yearning for a romantic getaway infused with adventure. Nestled on the outskirts of Ribchester, a village rich in Roman history and nestled in the Ribble Valley, the lodge offers a perfect blend of charm and exploration. With the Forest of Bowland just 2 miles away, and scenic walking routes on your doorstep, it's a haven for those who love the great outdoors. After a day of exploration, unwind in the lodge’s comfortable interiors, designed to offer a cosy retreat.

Step inside to discover an inviting open-plan living area, complete with a lounge, kitchen, and dining space under elegant wooden beams. The lounge, with its cosy sofa and armchairs, is perfect for relaxing evenings by the wood burner, while a Smart TV adds a modern touch. A handy utility room caters to guests with pets, ensuring muddy paws are no problem. The king-size bedroom, with ample storage and an additional TV, promises restful nights, complemented by a refreshing shower room.

Embark on circular walks from Ribchester or venture a bit further to hike Longridge Fell (5 miles) or Parlick (8.5 miles) for stunning vistas. Follow the Tolkien Trail (4 miles) to walk in the footsteps of J.R.R. Tolkien, or explore the mysterious history of Pendle Hill (17.5 miles) beyond Clitheroe (11 miles).

We needed a quiet and peaceful break after recently losing one of our dogs, and The Cabin at The Vines was exactly what we needed. We met Michelle when we arrived, who showed us around and explained everything, including how to use the pizza oven and hot tub. After that, we were simply left to enjoy the cabin and the peace and quiet, although it waRead mores reassuring knowing Michelle and Dave were there if we needed anything. We have stayed in cabins and lodges for decades and normally take half the house with us tea, coffee, milk, condiments, foil, torches and all the other little things you usually realise you need once you arrive. This was one of the first places we have stayed where genuinely everything seemed to have been thought of. There was nothing we found ourselves wishing we had brought. The cabin itself is lovely. The bed was extremely comfortable, the shower was fantastic and the living room was really cosy, with plenty of cushions and throws. We used the pizza oven around three times during our five-night stay and really enjoyed it. What stood out more than anything, though, was just how quiet and peaceful it was. That was exactly what we were looking for and it gave us the chance to properly switch off for a few days. Michelle and Dave are lovely, polite people who seem to have got the balance absolutely right they are there if you need them, but otherwise give you complete privacy to enjoy your stay. We also took our Jack Russell, who absolutely loved it. There are a couple of dog-friendly pubs nearby, including a larger one just down the road, and around four miles away there is a Co-op and a lovely little sandwich shop called Beckys Bakery. The Cabin at The Vines really feels like one of those hidden gems. Considering how many cabins and lodges we have stayed in over the years, Im surprised we had never come across it before. If anyone asked me to recommend somewhere peaceful to stay, I wouldnt hesitate to recommend this place. We would absolutely stay again. Hide

We had a wonderful holiday at 'Cabin at the Vines'. The cabin was well equipped, spotless and comfortable.

We had a power cut during our stay and Michelle made sure that we had everything that we needed (even though they were in the same situation!) until the power company fixed the issue. Michelle was always on hand without being intrusive, a thoughtful and caring host. We would highly recommend 'Cabin at the Vines' and look forward to a return visit at some point. Hide

We had such a lovely stay at the Cabin at the Vines. The cabin and surrounding garden was beautiful. It felt very private and peaceful with the mature trees all around and being next to the stream, yet had the benefit of being just up the road from the lovely village if you needed anything. It was our first trip away since our puppy Herman joined oRead moreur family, and it was the perfect place to relax with him in the secure garden. As our visit was on a very hot weekend, we took the opportunity to really chill out and enjoy the garden, and didn't leave at all. Bliss. It was a little oasis with the trees providing lovely dappled shade from the sun. We loved the hot tub and the outdoor cooking station was amazing. We bbq'd and used the pizza oven for all meals. The inside of the cabin was very charming and comfortable as well, and so well equipped with everything you could possibly need. Owner Michelle was really helpful and made sure we were happy and had everything we needed throughout our stay via WhatsApp - the welcome basket and wine was a really nice touch for our arrival. We will definitely return and think we'd enjoy coming for a cosy stay in colder months just as much as we enjoyed our summer stay. Thank you! Hide

Beautiful, tranquil and so comfortable! Complete privacy but the owners are just a call/text away if needed and are very welcoming. The extra touches show they truly care for their guests.

They were even kind enough to bring us some cake after they had attended a local food festival! If you love animals as much as we do, you're in luck. The sound of the birds and running river alongside the cabin is so soothing, and if you're lucky you'll even spot wild deer in the garden (we saw them twice during our stay). Michelle and Dave have 2 pet goats in a neighbouring field who are super friendly so my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed popping in to see them every day! As much time as we spent relaxing in the property itself, it's also a great base for exploring the local area and neighbouring villages and we loved that there were lots of dog friendly places to visit nearby. We would come again and highly recommend the property for anyone looking for a great place to relax and unwind. Hide
