Although it’s sparsely populated by English standards, the close-knit communities of the Forest of Bowland enjoy an extremely busy social calendar – and visitors are more than welcome to join in!
In these rural villages and hamlets, getting together for a brew and a chat is an important part of country life and there’s something going on somewhere in Bowland most weekends – from early spring to late summer and autumn.
Admire early snowdrops and bluebells at Hornby Castle and Wray, take part in lambing live at upland farms in spring, walk through drifts of wildflowers in summer and admire stunning local produce at the all-important autumn agricultural shows.
