Step back in time with your faithful friend when you arrive at this splendid Tudor mansion. The gorgeous six-bedroom house, which sleeps 12 guests, sits in substantial grounds at Warton, 9 miles from both Blackpool and Preston. For the humans, there is a pool here, plus a hot tub, a tennis court and other games. For the hounds, the grassy gardens will keep tails wagging.
Let your pal pad inside to warm his paws on the underfloor heating. Head through to the incredible lounge, with its high ceiling, exposed beams and flagstone floor. Play group games or host movie nights in front of the Smart TV, while your contented canine joins in the fun. Feed him in the character-laden kitchen/diner, where you can also prepare feasts for the people in your party to sit down to here or in the grand dining room. Bid your sleepy pet goodnight before wandering through to one of your bedrooms. Four of these, including two super-king-sizes, one with an en-suite bathroom and zip-and-link beds that can also be arranged as singles if discussed at booking, and one with an opulent four-poster bed and an en-suite bathroom, are downstairs. A king-size and a twin, each with an en-suite shower room, are also on the ground floor. Another lovely king-size, with an en-suite bathroom, is upstairs, together with a family room, with three singles, two of which can zip-and-link together to make a super-king-size. Take your pal out to explore the leafy grounds, while others cook on the BBQ, swim or play in the games room. There is parking for seven cars.
Venture 3 miles to Lytham West Beach, where you can throw a ball for your four-legged friend at any time. Plan a day trip to the Forest of Bowland, 16.5 miles away, with its many dog walks.
