Debbie
My husband and our dog stayed at the Old Shippon late September and chose property as we wanted somewhere we could still enjoy our holiday from if the weather got the better of us. It did not disappoint - very nicely decorated and immaculately clean, the attention to detail meant everything from breakfast to our evening meal and drinks was more enjRead moreoyable. The hot tub was used every day and a welcome treat after enjoying one of the local walks - it was a great base to explore. Highly recommend Hide
Peter
Lovely property, lots of thought put into making everyone comfortable, beds especially luxurious all had great night sleeps . Area great for exploring lots of different walks a short drive away . Both our dogs loved it too lots of space for them . Highly recommend.

Amii-Louise
Probably the best holiday home we have stayed in. It was immaculately clean and had everything you could need. The house was beautiful and spacious. The welcome pack was a very thoughtful touch and the hot tub was the icing on the cake, very relaxing. The location was great, only a 30 minute drive to the lakes. Beautiful house and the owners are loRead morevely. We will definitely be booking again. Hide

Bowland Wild Boar Park - PR3 2QT
about 10 Miles
Head for the Bowland Wild Boar park and we don't think you will be disappointed.  A popular attraction in Preston there is so much to do for the whole family.  From picnics, walks and wildlife to experiencing feeding the animals you are sure to have a memorable day out.  Also popular is the kids tractor play area.  For rest and relaxation the cafe is ideal serving hot drinks and snacks with a lovely view over the pond and wildlife feeding station.  The Forest of Bowland has been declared an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Lakeland Wildlife Oasis - LA6 1JH
about 16 Miles
Located in the Milnthorpe area of Cumbria we love this local attraction.  With an eclectic mix of fascinating wildlife and hands on displays this centre is educational as well as fun.  You can wander around at leisure admiring the exhibits which range from chameleons to computers. Some of the most threatened species are kept at the park as part if international breeding programmes.  Check out their website for the latest opening times and admission costs which are great value for money.  There are discounts for pre-booked parties of 12 or more.
South Lakes Safari Zoo - LA12 0LU
about 21 Miles

This is an amazing Cumbria attraction well known locally as well as nationally for how close you can get to the animals.  Described as the most interactive animal park in Europe it's well worth a visit if you are staying in the area.  Open from April to end October some of the highlights are the tigers, penguins, bears, hippos and rhinos.  At 2pm during certain seasons it's feeding time so don't forget to plan your day around this so you can watch the animals enjoying their feed.  Look out for seasonal events such as Halloween Zoo Boo (free entry for kids in fancy dress) and The Magic of Christmas.
