Exploring the Area

Little Oakhurst is surrounded by some of the most beautiful countryside in Lancashire.

With Pendle Hill in full view, historic villages close by and the famous Tolkien Trail on our doorstep, this part of the Ribble Valley is full of stories, scenery and places to explore.

If you are looking for things to do in the Ribble Valley, here are some of the highlights you can enjoy during your stay.

Pendle Hill and Witchcraft History

Pendle Hill is one of the most iconic landmarks in the region and can be seen in all its glory from the glampsite.

Known for its links to the Pendle witches and the 1612 witch trials, it attracts visitors who love local history, folklore and dramatic views.
You can explore the surrounding villages, join a guided ghost walk or climb Pendle Hill for sweeping views across the Ribble Valley.

A popular stop is Witches Galore in Newchurch-in-Pendle, filled with books, souvenirs and curiosities.

The Tolkien Trail

The Tolkien Trail begins just a short distance from the farm and is one of the most popular things to do in the Ribble Valley.

This five and a half mile circular walk takes you through riverside paths, woodland and beautiful open countryside.

J. R. R. Tolkien spent time at Stonyhurst during the Second World War and is believed to have drawn inspiration from the landscape while writing The Lord of the Rings.

Trail leaflets are available in our honesty shop, complete with a route map and local information.

After your walk, The Shireburn Arms is a lovely place to stop for food or a drink.
