Duckdown is a mid-terrace cottage nestled in Hurst Green, Lancashire. Hosting a double bedroom along with a bathroom, this property can sleep two guests. There is also a kitchen/diner with electric fire and a sitting room with woodburning stove. To the outside is a courtyard with seating and roadside parking. Duckdown is a charming base for a couple or the individual traveller.

A small pretty village, Hurst Green is rich in its stories from across the generations, of highwayman, ghosts and folklore and the quaint lanes, pubs and eateries only add to its charm. Located between Clitheroe and Longridge in the Ribble Valley, one of its strongest connections in history is to the famous Jesuit day and boarding school, Stonyhurst, indeed we understand this cottage was previously owned by them. The village is well placed for visiting many other beauty spots and some of the finest eateries in the north such as the Inn at Whitewell. The Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales are an easy drive away for days out. Closer at hand, the villages and towns of Clitheroe and Whalley are steeped in their own special histories to discover more about.
