  • Back-to-basics dog-friendly site a 15-minute drive from Blackburn
  • Haworth Art Gallery 15 minutes’ drive; Morecambe Bay 45 minutes
  • Two pubs within a 15-minute walk; hikes; sunset views of Darwen Tower
Sitting on a family-run farm just outside the Lancashire village of Belthorn, a 15-minute drive from Blackburn, Greystones Farm is a great spot for cynophiles: not only are there four friendly sheepdogs keeping an eye on the flock, but you’re welcome to bring your own four-legged companions – providing they play nice with other hounds and assorted animal residents in the surrounding fields, which include horses and cattle. You’ll have to embrace a pretty basic lifestyle here: there are no toilets or showers on site. However, there are pretty spectacular vistas across the countryside, as far as Darwen Tower to the west (up a hill in the West Pennine Moors, 25 minutes’ drive away) and Pendle Hill to the north east (half an hour). And with Greystones Farm sitting at 1,000 feet above sea level, on clear days you might even catch a glimpse of the Lancashire coast and Morecambe Bay (45 minutes). Local hiking areas include Tinkler’s Brook and its pretty waterfall (five minutes’ walk); Hog Lowe Pike Trigpoint (five minutes’ drive), from where you can take in views of the Rossendale Valley; and Holcombe Moor (20 minutes), which is also popular with mountain bikers. There are two pubs (both serving food) within a 15-minute walk; a farm shop with a vending machine dispensing milkshakes, eggs, butter, cheese and desserts is a 10-minute walk away.

Local attractions

Pick up picnic supplies and head to Witton Country Park (15 minutes’ drive), on the banks of the River Darwen. In addition to nature walks (including the circular Beamer’s Trail), the site has adventure playgrounds in the woods, and it also plays host to events such as workshops and music festivals. Have a go at skiing or snowboarding at Ski Rossendale (15 minutes): either book a taster session or, if you’re already confident on the slopes, just turn up and pretend you’re in the Alps as you ski down the hill. If you feel lazy, there are also tubing sessions. Tiffany glassware and paintings from the 18th and 19th centuries are among the items on display at Haworth Art Gallery (15 minutes). The building itself is known for its elegant Arts & Crafts stylings. For something more contemporary, head to the Singing Ringing Tree (20 minutes), a hilltop installation that’s played by the wind as it passes through its steel pipes. And where else? Historic Clitheroe Castle (half an hour) has gorgeous views of the countryside. Blackburn Cathedral (10 minutes) is a stunning spot for those interested in architecture or religious history. As for hikers (or indeed, cyclists), the Ribble Valley (half an hour) has lots of trails and spectacular scenery.
