Historic Textile Mill Conversion in Central Clitheroe - 1823 Spinning Block
Historic Setting & Architecture
1823 Spinning Block is a Grade II listed conversion of a 19th-century textile mill, retaining original flagged flooring and Victorian machinery. The hotel's public spaces showcase the industrial heritage with painted glass panels and a restored steam engine that once drove the looms. Located within the Holmes Mill complex, the property shares a site with a brewery bar and a food hall.
Rooms & Accommodations
The hotel offers family rooms with private bathrooms, walk-in showers, and high-spec bathrooms featuring L'Occitane toiletries. Each room includes a work desk and electric kettle, with some rooms providing views of the courtyard or street. Guest reviews highlight comfortable beds and spacious layouts, though noise from events in the bistro below can affect rooms directly above.
On-Site Dining & Brewery
Dining options include the on-site Bistro Bar and Grill, plus two additional outlets: the Bowland Beer Hall (serving real ales in a restored engine house) and the Emporium restaurant (offering a 15% discount for hotel guests). A diverse breakfast menu with locally sourced ingredients is served in the bistro, and a coffee house operates within the complex. The hotel also has a minimarket and a picnic area with outdoor furniture.
Location & Local Activities
The hotel sits in central Clitheroe, within walking distance of Clitheroe Castle and local breweries and food markets. Surrounding attractions include the Forest of Bowland (41 km) and Trough of Bowland, with hiking and cycling routes accessible from the property. Guests can also book brewery tours and attend live music performances or stand-up comedy evenings on-site.
Family & Accessibility Features
The hotel provides family rooms and a family-friendly atmosphere, with spacious accommodation for groups. Accessibility is supported by a lift, wheelchair-accessible toilets with grab rails, and facilities for disabled guests. Multilingual staff (English and Polish) are available at the 24-hour front desk, and free on-street parking is available outside the hotel (paid parking also offered for £10 per night).
