Irishman's Tower at Hoghton Tower

The Irishman’s Tower occupies one of the former garrisons that interrupt the ramparts surrounding Hoghton Tower. This two-floor, cosy historic property is the perfect base for your rural retreat. Here you will be able to relax and unwind, enjoying some of the best views over one of the most beautiful areas of the country.

The Irishman’s Tower will accommodate a maximum of two people. Use it as your base to visit the local area whether by foot or by cycle or travel further a field with the Forest of Bowland, Lancaster and the Lake District all within striking distance. Play some golf at Pleasington, one of the best tests of golf in the North-West of England. Seek out locally produced food at one of the many farmers markets, village stores, pubs and restaurants nearby.

Features include a cosy living room with a log burning open fire; a welcome pack to help you settle in; organic toiletries and basic supplies such as organic bread and milk; flat screen TV with DVD player and iPod dock; complimentary Wi-Fi; fitted kitchen with dishwasher; balconied bedroom with a king size bed, non-allergenic duvet and soft, high threadcount cotton sheets; contemporary bathroom with underfloor heating, an oversized walk-in shower and all the fluffy towels you require; cosy natural wood flooring; decorated using ecologically-friendly, organic, odourless and solvent free paints; soft furnishings made from the best organic textiles that  neighbouring Lancashire mills have to offer and ample car parking.

The Irishman's Tower is run to support the Hoghton Tower Preservation Trust.  All annual surpluses are used to support its charitable objects which include the ongoing maintenance, repair and restoration of the historic fabric of the buildings and grounds.
