The Old Post Office is a compact cottage in Clitheroe and the Ribble Valley, Lancashire, sleeping up to 4 and well suited to a couple or small family exploring this part of the North West. Brierfield station is just 1.1 miles away, giving you a useful rail link if you'd rather not drive the whole time. Local museums are within easy reach, including British in India and Pendle Heritage Centre, both 2.1 miles off, with Queen Street Mill Textile Museum a short way further at 2.8 miles. It's a good base for a few days of gentle sightseeing around the valley.
