“The Spread Eagle's location, near Clitheroe but set in a smaller village, makes it ideal for a Ribble Valley escape; individually decorated rooms, some with river views and Victorian touches, create a memorable stay. With award-winning, locally-sourced cuisine and a cozy bar, this dog-friendly inn distinguishes itself through both comfort and community engagement. I think this is an excellent choice for those seeking a relaxing countryside experience.”
