Conservatory

The Conservatory is available for Private Parties. Choose to sit inside, or outside on our picnic benches, adjacent to the children’s play area. In either case enjoy the peace and tranquillity of the location and the breathtaking scenery surrounding the Centre.

Play Area

- Created during the spring of 2004, this new facility is proving very popular with many small children whose families are visiting the Centre.

Sensory Garden

This is an on-going project and the garden changes from season to season and year to year. For those with an interest in horticulture and/or art, it provides an ever-changing attraction, stimulating the senses of sight, smell and hearing.

Walking

Public footpaths abound in the area, making Coldwell an attractive centre for walkers and ramblers. The popular Pendle Way is routed through the Centre’s grounds, the Brontë Way lies less than half a mile away, and the Mary Towneley Loop of the Pennine Bridleway passes close by.

Fishing

Coldwell, on behalf of Nelson Angling Association, can provide day fishing permits by prior arrangement.
