Bowlands Party Retreat

Where family laughter echoes across Lancashire’s fields, Bowlands Party Retreat brings generations together for stories, adventure, and celebration.

Just twenty minutes from Clitheroe, this countryside haven feels made for together time. Eleven beautifully styled bedrooms welcome everyone — grandparents to toddlers — with views stretching over peaceful fields and stables. The atmosphere balances warmth and excitement; a home where the day starts with birdsong and ends with shared smiles by the firelight.

Days unfold in the vibrant rodeo-themed disco room, where kids dance under glittering lights and grown-ups join in for a tune or two. The games room keeps friendly rivalries alive over pool and foosball, while the bar becomes a hub for evening stories. Two undercover hot tubs invite relaxation after forest adventures, and the outdoor fire pit gathers the whole family beneath a canopy of stars, marshmallows toasting and laughter flowing.

Your family celebration unfolds gently — morning walks through nearby Gisburn Forest, long lunches around the grand dining table, then sunset dips in the warm bubbles of the hot tubs. As the night winds down, the countryside quiet surrounds you, and tomorrow promises another day of shared adventure.

Gather your loved ones at Bowlands Party Retreat — where family memories take root.
