Converted Cottage for 8 in Forton

This 4-bedroom group cottage is a spacious stone cottage sleeping eight guests on a working dairy farm near Garstang in Lancashire. This converted barn sits in the heart of the countryside with direct access to the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The property works brilliantly for groups with its four generous bedrooms and three bathrooms.

The setting is peaceful farmland with immediate canal access for morning walks. You're surrounded by working farm buildings and animals including dairy cows. The location balances rural quiet with practical access to shops just one mile away.

The accommodation features four super king-size bedrooms (two can convert to twins). Two ground-floor super king-size rooms have en-suite shower rooms with TVs and one has built-in wardrobes. Upstairs are two more super king-size rooms with TVs. There's a family bathroom with roll-top bath and separate shower. The open-plan kitchen has a range-style double oven, Tassimo coffee machine and dishwasher. A corner sofa and Smart TV complete the dining space. Underfloor heating and a wood burner keep everyone warm.

Blackpool's Pleasure Beach and Tower are 30 minutes away by car. Royal Lytham golf course offers championship links. The Forest of Bowland provides walking routes. Lancaster Castle sits 20 minutes north (11 miles).

This getaway suits multi-generation families and friend groups wanting countryside peace with coastal access. The ground-floor bedrooms and shower chair help less mobile guests. Book here for farm life and Lancashire exploration combined.
