Winckley House - Apartment 30

Winckley House Apartment 30 occupies the second floor of a converted office block in Preston's town centre. The building's transformation reflects the city's broader reinvention—what was once industrial space is now residential, positioned among bars, restaurants, shops and cafes within walking distance. You arrive via 26 steps to reach the entrance.

Inside, the open plan living space combines a sitting area with Smart TV, dining zone and kitchen in one flowing layout. Both bedrooms have zip-and-link king beds that can be separated into singles if needed. The bathroom has a bath with shower over. The kitchen is equipped for proper cooking: electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge-freezer and washing machine. Electricity, wifi, bed linen and towels are all included. There's parking for one car on site. The property is non-smoking.

Preston works well as a base for exploring Lancashire and beyond. The city's docks have become a leisure destination with a marina, museum and cinema. The Lake District and Yorkshire Dales are roughly an hour away by car or train, while the Lancashire coast—Formby, Lytham St Annes, Cleveleys—is within reach for a day trip. Blackpool lies 30 minutes south. The 21-mile Guild Wheel cycle route circles the area, and the Ribble Valley sits to the east, known for both its food and landscape.
