Nestled in the shadows of Whalley Nab this quaint and typically English rural village always exceeds expectations.

Often overshadowed by Clitheroe, its larger neighbour, Whalley, nevertheless stands proud of its retail offer, providing many a new visitor the surprising 'find' they've been looking for.

Follow in the footsteps of celebrities who have visited before you, frequenting the likes of Whalley's designer shoe shop Poshu, ladies and gentlemen clothes stores and the aladdins cave known as Precious, where every girl will lose an hour or two trying on designer jewellery and accessories sourced from London and further afield.

Make a day of it and head to Whalley Abbey for a well earned rest, even amble round the abbey ruins there and imagine the times gone by in this beautiful part of the world.
