Accommodation & Grounds
Higher Trapp Hotel sits amid over 4 acres of terraced gardens on the Pendle Hillside. The early 1900s country house has been converted into 29 bedrooms, with rooms in the main building and in the annex known as Parkers Lodge. The annex offers pet-friendly accommodations, and accessible rooms feature grab rails, raised toilets, and emergency cords in bathrooms.
Dining & All-Inclusive Package
The on-site restaurant Fitzys serves international cuisine and a locally renowned seasonal menu. The All Inclusive Break includes a 2-course dinner (with a £25 food allowance per adult), full English breakfast, and a soup-and-sandwich lunch served between 1pm and 3pm. Unlimited drinks are available from 1pm to 11pm at the Resident's Bar, covering house wine, draught beers, and branded spirits with mixers.
Activities & Relaxation
A stand-alone private hot tub can be booked for relaxation, with prosecco and walkie-talkie service for ordering drinks. The hotel provides immediate access to Pendle Hill for hiking, cycling, and horseback riding, and the Pendle Sculpture Trail is a short distance away. Guests can also use the on-site golf course or watch live sport events broadcast in the shared lounge.
