Oxenhurst Cottage

A fabulous rural equestrian property consisting of a beautifully refurbished one bedroom cottage, approximately 9 acres of grazing and 4.5 of woodland and stream, stabling with water and electric supply and a dry arena.

The property has been completely refurbished by the current owners and is in immaculate, show-home condition throughout boasting a brand new bespoke kitchen, efficient oil heating system, stone slab flooring on the ground floor and beautiful original features such as the King Post Truss ceiling in the bedroom. A truly idyllic cottage tucked away in the Hodder Valley countryside, early viewing is highly recommended.

Set amidst the rural splendour of the Hodder Valley, Oxenhurst Cottage is approximately 10 miles from Clitheroe. Leave Clitheroe along Waddington Road passing through the village and up the fell road, to the left of the Higher Buck Inn. Continue over the fell dropping down into Newton bearing left at the Parkers Arms. Once you have reached the village hall, Back Lane is the next turning on the right hand side. Proceed up Back Lane and continue for 1.4 miles. The farm lane leading to Oxenhurst is on the left hand side and identified by a signpost for
Hartley’s Huts. Continue along this private drive for approximately 2 miles until reaching Oxenhurst which compromises of the cottage, the barn and the farmhouse.
