Overlooking fields and canals, the cottage is stunning in all seasons, a perfect base for exploring the area. Ideal for a family or couples break with touches of luxury including a hot tub and outdoor bbq deck. There's a cosy log burning fire, a fully equipped kitchen, pet-friendly garden, car parking, and keyless entry for self check-in. The cottage has all home comforts, 2 King bedrooms, outdoor deck area, car parking, and a TV with Sky (plus Sky Sports) Netflix and Wifi for cosy nights in front of the fire, and a hot tub to relax in after a day exploring the area. You can enjoy complimentary welcome hamper, tea and coffee, and try your hand at making lattes with the Nespresso machine. The outdoor deck area features a wood fired hot tub with led lights and bubble jets, a bbq and comfortable outdoor seating. For the more adventurous, we have bikes and outdoor games for guest use, as well as paddle boards and a Canadian canoe available to reserve for a small charge. Available for guest use are luxury, sustainable and vegan Bath House products in the kitchen and bathroom, as well as conveniences such as hairdryer, towels and many home comforts. There's indoor and outdoor games and toys available for kids (and those young at heart!) as well as a curated Lancashire Library featuring tales, authors and recipes from the county. The area of Top Locks is located a 10 minute walk (or 2 minute drive) from the local village of Burscough, that has a rich offering of pubs, restaurants, and local shops. Burscough Wharf is a covered former canal side building that hosts a delightful array of shops, bars and restaurants, as well as seasonal farmers markets throughout the year. In the immediate area, attractions include Martin Mere Wetland Centre, Windmill Animal Farm, Mere Sands Woods, Rufford Old Hall. You can reach local attractions with a short drive, such as Formby Beach and Squirrel Reserve in around 30 minutes, Southport in 30 minutes, Blackpool in around 40 minutes, Liverpool in 30 minutes or Manchester in around 40 minutes. There are several walks right on the doorstep of the property, and the area has always been popular with locals and visitors alike. There are also plenty of cycling routes nearby. The Ship Inn is on the opposite side of the canal bank, and boasts a fantastic reputation in the local area for serving quality food and beer. If you fancy a night in, an honesty bar is available with wines and spirits. There is a keypad on the front door for easy self check in and parking available right outside the front door. We are pet friendly, as are many of the pubs in the local area, including The Ship Inn opposite! Parking available at the front of the property for one large car or two small/medium cars. Keyless entry - we'll provide you with an access code prior to check in, so you can arrive at any time that is convenient for you. If there is anything at all that I can help you with, please just ask. Security - we have 2 external security cameras, one at the front and one at the rear. They are not used to monitor guests, but to act as a deterrent from members of the public approaching the property. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the cottage: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Netflix - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Streaming services ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - 2 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Things to do - Bicycles - Kayak - Cycling nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) - Security system - Fire extinguisher ### General - Bicycles - Garden ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/96000000/95730000/95728300/95728282/422fb9dd.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Idyllic Bungalow, Ideal Location in West Lancashire Burscough - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly 10 Exceptional 7 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-12&endDate=2026-02-13&selected=95728282&PinnedHotelID=95728282&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Sauna](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/1000000/870000/865900/865827/55bcc793.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Wrightington Hotel & Health Club Wigan - Pool - Hot tub - Spa - Parking included 8.8 Excellent 517 reviews CA $139 CA $167 total includes taxes & fees Feb 1 - Feb 2 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-01&endDate=2026-02-02&selected=865827&PinnedHotelID=865827&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Reception](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/2000000/1100000/1097600/1097577/925fd4df.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Britannia Hotel Wigan Wigan - Pet friendly - Parking included - Free WiFi - Breakfast available 7.4 Good 183 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-12&endDate=2026-02-13&selected=1097577&PinnedHotelID=1097577&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) [Compare similar properties](/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-12&endDate=2026-02-13&selected=83536707&PinnedHotelID=83536707&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2&comparePropertyIds=83536707,95728282,865827,1097577) ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 2:00 PM Contactless check-in available Minimum check-in age: 18 ### Check-out Check-out before 11:00 AM Contactless check-out available ### Special check-in instructions Guests will receive an access code You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions Information provided by the property may be translated using automated translation tools ### Access methods Access code ### Pets Pets allowed Service animals are welcome, and are exempt from fees Welcoming dogs only 2 total pets ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know Extra-person charges may apply and vary depending on property policy Government-issued photo identification and a credit card, debit card, or cash deposit may be required at check-in for incidental charges Special requests are subject to availability upon check-in and may incur additional charges; special requests cannot be guaranteed Onsite parties or group events are strictly prohibited Host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector with you on the trip Host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property Safety features at this property include a fire extinguisher and a security system This property is managed through our partner, Vrbo.

Aug 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect weekend getaway cottage We went to stay with friends for a couple of nights to catch up and see more friends nearby. We had a wonderful time. Amy made us feel really welcome through her messages in advance and we really appreciated the welcome basket of goodies she had left for us. The cottage was beautiful, clean, and everything we needed. The log fired hot tub was a real treat and we barely left the cottage the whole time, except to walk round the locks and back. Highly recommended and excellent value for money. We will be back! ##### Keir P. Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Danielle F.

Feb 21, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Luxurious and Cosy cottage We had a lovely stay in the cottage this weekend. The cottage is so lovely and cosy with lots of luxurious finishes. The welcome hamper was a lovely touch and full of goodies! The hosts clearly made a lot of effort to make us feel welcome, even bought some treats for our dog! The host Amy was very responsive to any queries about the property too, which was reassuring. The wood fired hot tub was amazing! It did take a lot of effort to get it ready for use but it was worth it and stayed hot for a long time. We had a very enjoyable stay, and would love to return in the summer if we get chance :) ##### Yvonne E. Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rob M. Oct 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Just WOW!!! What a fantastic cottage! Brilliant location right on the canal with lovely walks (all ending close to good lunch spots), very dog friendly. Absolutely perfect. Amy had thought of everything. The kitchen was well equipped, there was plenty of wood for the log burner and the welcome hamper was beyond generous and even included treats for the dogs. The garden is huge and completely secure. We didn’t use the hot tub but it looked great. We will definitely be back and next time we will stay longer! ##### Rob M. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jack T.
