Welcome to our house

Set in the delightful market town of Clitheroe, Castle View House offers a warm and friendly atmosphere in this beautiful stone house surrounded by landscaped gardens. The house was built in 1973 and recently renovated in 2018. There are 10 studio-style rooms, each with an ensuite shower and kitchenette. The rooms are unfurnished ready for you to bring your own furniture and belongings to create your own home.

The house is located in the heart of the Ribble Valley, an area well known for its natural beauty. There are many restaurants and pubs nearby if you feel like venturing out for some lunch or an evening meal. We are close to the train and bus stations and many independent shops and cafes. Clitheroe holds a Jazz festival in May and a food Festival in August which we enjoy visiting. The town is a popular tourist destination as people enjoy exploring the surrounding countryside and going for walks to take in the sights and visit some of the historical landmarks.

Castle View has a bright garden terrace which captures the sun beautifully and makes for an enjoyable place to sit out and enjoy the many colours and scents of our plants and shrubs. The gardens here are well maintained, with benches and chairs for you to sit out and while away the hours or spend time with your visitors and other residents.

This house is managed by the Abbeyfield Ribble Valley Society.
