Northcote was once a true family home for a Lancashire textile baron and still holds the atmosphere of warmth and well being. The original foreboding hall is now a welcome to all our guests with roaring fires in the Winter and a small
bar for those who enjoy an afternoon
cocktail. The adjacent lounges each with their own log fires create a relaxing atmosphere to enjoy afternoon
tea, champagne before
dinner or cognac and cigars at then end of a memorable evening. Northcote has fourteen individual
bedrooms providing the basis for the Northcote philosophy of warm, friendly and sincere hospitality.
