Now the better weather is supposed to be coming why not have a short holiday and come to Malkin Tower Farm.  From here you can fish, walk, cycle, play golf, shop until you drop, especially in the new Boundary Mill Store. or just enjoy a quiet relaxing time in one of our cottages.

Prices start from £325 per week, or £65 per night for short breaks, per cottage.  Linen, Towels, heating and welcome pack are included in the price.

We also have the Piggery which is a detached single ensuite shower room, suitable for single occupancy as it has its own front door.  Price £35 per night.

28th February 2008 - Pendle Business Award

We have won the Pendle Environmental Business Award

At a dinner for 200 guests, held at the Fence Gate last night, we were thrilled to win the Pendle Envionmental Business Award. Although we were probably the smallest business there and certainly the only tourism business, our small contribution to the environment paid off.

We are delighted by the results and would like to thank all our guests who have helped us by recycling their rubbish and taken the time to read and follow the steps in our environmental guide which is in each cottage.

Thank you.

19th November 2007 - Gold GTBS Award/European Charter

We now have Gold for Green Tourism and are 1 of only 17 companies to be award the European Charter

We have provided recylce bins for plastics, paper, bottles and tins and ask that all guest separate their rubbish.
We planted many thousands of trees and hedgerows on the farm to create habitats for wild birds and animals.
We aim to plant at least 50 trees per year.
We are replacing all light bulbs with low energy bulbs.
We harvest our rain water.
We have removed the oil Esse range from Demdyke Cottage and installed an electric cooker so that we are not burning oil 24
hours a day, 365 days a year.
We have an environment charter in place for those interested.

We welcome any suggestions/ideas you may have. You can purchase a tree and we will plant it here at Malkin Tower.

We hope that guests will support us in an effort to conserve energy, by simply turning off unnecessary lights, inside and out, ensuring that electric heaters are not left on unnecessarily. We have our own water system and we ask that guest use water considerately.
