The kitchen is well-equipped, featuring a table that seats six, alongside essential amenities such as a dishwasher, fridge freezer, microwave, and washing machine.

Burnley is vibrant with annual events such as Blues festivals, a Balloon festival in July, and a walking week. The area has deep historical roots, particularly in Briercliffe, which is linked to the Quaker Movement. Nearby attractions include historic castles like Skipton and Clitheroe, as well as Houghton Tower, a 16th-century fortified manor house. Culture seekers can visit the Howarth Art Gallery, which houses the largest collection of Tiffany glass in Europe, and explore the ruins of Wycoller Hall, known for its Bronte connections. The proximity to various activity centers offers thrilling options like archery, abseiling, and gorge scrambling, catering to outdoor enthusiasts of all kinds.
For those who enjoy walking, the surrounding areas feature stunning landscapes such as the Forest of Trawden, Wycoller Country Park, and Pendle Hill, famous for its links to the Lancashire witches. The region is also rich in industrial heritage, highlighted by the Queen Street Mill, which features a working steam engine. Steam train enthusiasts can explore the Settle to Carlisle line and other local steam railways. While Burnley boasts the largest area of parkland for a town of its size, the beaches of Blackpool, Morecambe, and Southport are just an hour away, offering additional leisure options. With a wealth of activities and attractions within walking distance or a short drive, High Gate is an inviting destination for a memorable getaway.
