Loved by The Assheton Arms Hotel guests
"Travelled here for 2 nights with our 2 labradors, given a lovely ground floor room in the cottage next door which had its own enclosed garden."
"Food at both dinner and breakfast was excellent with a good selection of both cooked and continental breakfast options - the pastries were particularly good!"
"The location was absolute perfection with stunning views across the Ribble Valley towards the magnificent Pendle Hill."
Featuring a lobby area and a restaurant, the 5-star smoke-free The Assheton Arms Hotel Clitheroe is located a mere 5 minutes' stroll from Downham Hall. While staying 4.3 km from Lower Gazegill Farm, guests can benefit from a shared lounge and a lobby fireplace.
Location
The hotel is in a rural area of Clitheroe. The Assheton Arms is nearly a 10-minute ride from the ruined early medieval Clitheroe Castle in Clitheroe.
Hills are close to this Clitheroe hotel, and the cistercian monastery "Sawley Abbey" is 2.2 km away. Feel in total harmony with nature by visiting the famous Pendle Hill, approximately a 15-minute drive from the accommodation.
Clitheroe station is within a 7-km distance of the hotel.

Eat & Drink
Food options for dinner are available at the on-site Assheton Arms restaurant. The restaurant serves British cuisine for lunch and dinner. There is also a lounge bar.
“The hotel's setting in Downham, near Pendle Hill, is undeniably picturesque, making it a potentially delightful overnight stop. While some rooms offer stunning bathrooms and thoughtful layouts, a few areas seem to lack attention to detail. Overall, with its charming village location and renowned seafood restaurant, a return visit seems tempting.”

the room was warm. it was also comfortable with everything i needed. staff were good. breakfast was lovely and had a lot of options.
The bathroom door didn't close properly, so it couldn't be locked. the bathroom seemed damp. I think it needs a better extractor. the paint was peeling because of that.

a reasonably pleasant stay
beautiful viewscute atmospherecosmetic maintenancedirty marks
the location offered beautiful views (i spent most of the time gazing out the window). the room i had, a beautiful double room, was spacious and quiet. the breakfast offered a nice selection of both continental options and cooked items. i also appreciated the atmosphere, it felt very cute.
i noticed some areas needed cosmetic maintenance. the bathroom door didn't close properly, thus i couldn't lock it (this made me a little uncomfortable). there were also some dirty marks on the cushions in the room. these issues detracted from an otherwise pleasant experience.
