Curlew Cottage offers amazing views of the waterfront from the private hot tub where you can enjoy the atmosphere and listen to the relaxing calls of the estuary birds. The cottage is in the heart of the NW Lancashire countryside on the estuary, a stunning site of special conservation interest, and in easy reach of pretty country towns, seaside resorts and the Lake District. Perfect for walking, cycling, romantic escapes, family holidays and group bookings.
Curlew Cottage is a fully self-contained and private detached cottage on a large two acre site along with another holiday cottage and our own home. Curlew Cottage is spacious both inside and outside, providing three bedrooms (sleeping six people), a lovely New England coastal inspired interior design, and a private garden area with six-person hydrotherapy hot tub which is not overlooked. Here you can create the holiday you want - from leisurely walks along the stunning coastal footpaths which are right on your doorstep, to fun on the beach and in the nightspots of Blackpool, meals and drinks in the cool independent bars and restaurants of Poulton-le-Fylde, and activities such as birdwatching, pony trekking, archery, kayaking and water sports, petting zoo and clay pigeon shooting. Beautiful coastal walks are easily accessible, including the estuary footpath which can be picked up at the bottom of the cottage's driveway. An ideal holiday destination for walking or cycling, a luxury break and romantic escape for two, a fun-filled family holiday, short breaks and group bookings.
Curlew Cottage is dog friendly and all breeds of dog are accepted - we don't specify the number of dogs you can bring, it really depends on their size, so please let us know the number of dogs and size/breed to confirm they can be accommodated comfortably in the cottage. The estuary footpath and Knottend on Sea beach are dog friendly, as are many of our local pubs.
