Make a Festive Escape to Holmes Mill in the Ribble Valley
Set within the heart of the Ribble Valley and housed in a beautifully repurposed textile mill, Holmes Mill offers a festive experience with a difference. Think stylish surroundings, local food and drink, buzzing events, and a setting where both families and friends can relax, explore and celebrate together.
Whether you’re planning a full overnight stay or a sophisticated day out, Holmes Mill has plenty on offer. The beautifully designed rooms at The Spinning Block Hotel make the perfect base for a winter getaway — stay the night, soak up the atmosphere, and wake to a leisurely breakfast before heading out to discover more of this beautiful part of Lancashire.
By day, take time to explore the charming market town of Clitheroe. Browse its independent shops and boutiques for unique gifts, visit Clitheroe Castle for sweeping views across the valley, or take a crisp winter walk in the surrounding countryside. Then return to Holmes Mill to refuel and unwind — perhaps with a glass of mulled wine, a stop at the Bowland Food Hall for festive treats, or a browse through the seasonal markets and pop-up stalls.
As evening falls, the celebrations continue with festive dining in a choice of restaurants, from relaxed family meals to elegant dinners with friends. Afterwards, enjoy drinks and live entertainment in the Bowland Beer Hall, or wander across the road to The Emporium, another stylish James’ Places venue offering cocktails, dining and plenty of seasonal sparkle.
Wrap up Relaxation
Treat someone special to the gift of time well spent. James’ Places Gift Vouchers can be used across all their venues — the perfect way to share the Holmes Mill experience.
So whether it’s a day of festive shopping, a weekend escape, or simply time to eat, drink and unwind before the big day, Holmes Mill and Clitheroe make the perfect Christmas destination.
Stay, shop, dine and celebrate — discover the magic of Christmas in the Ribble Valley.
