Olympic Flame

June 23 2012: The Olympic Flame at its Loveclough starting point, after visiting Blackburn, Accrington and Burnley. It was heading for Crawshawbooth, Rawtenstall. Rochdale then Manchester.

Great support from crowds. Three generations of our family watched it: our daughter Gemma, me and our eldest grandchild, Josh. Lovely.

June 22 2012: Sabden Brook, on the way to Cobden Farm. Usually, you can paddle across.

A few hours later it was even higher. Not bad for the first day of summer.

We are on the hillside that looks across Sabden Valley, to Pendle Hill, famous for the Lancashire Witches.

We are very rural but close to the motorway, rail and airport network, so handy for holiday or business visitors.

You can find out more about Cobden Farm Bed and Breakfast by going to our website at: www.cobdenfarm.co.uk

Breakfast is served in the conservatory overlooking our wildlife pond and across Sabden Valley to the lower end of Pendle Hill.

Both en-suite rooms look out onto fields where our sheep graze. They have been known to graze in our garden. But that's another story.

Babies and children are most welcome - we have available a travel cot, a fold-up bed, highchair, baby walker as well as toys to entertain them.

And there are freshly made scones with butter and jam waiting for you in your room when you arrive.

Well-behaved dogs are also welcome. And we have 'guest' packs for them.
