Silver Surfers Lancashire

www.silverlivingmagazine.co.uk 6 WE believe we’ve created the perfect shopping day out, set in the heart of the rural Lancashire, surrounded by rolling hills. In May 2008, Sarah and Angela Ruttle decided to take on the lease of a converted farm building, to let shop units out, to create a new visitors centre comprising of a great range of shops, from fresh local produce to gifts, crafts and clothing, a licensed tea room, leading Art Gallery and high quality Butchers. Heskin Hall Shopping Village offers visitors a wide range of unique retail shops, all under one roof. Unlike the high street, no two outlets are the same, offering an incredible range of products and services. Since opening in 2010, the centre has expanded twice into two further linked farm buildings, offering a greater range of shops including soft furnishings, bathrooms, kitchens, stoves, bedroom furniture, hairdressing, shoes and handbags, The Crafty Potter Craft Studio and much more. Our Butchers shop is your quintessential British butchers shop. Our Beef, Lamb and Water Buffalo come from our own farms where the herd is free range and 100% grass fed which we believe produces the most natural highest quality meats with the best flavour. All our other meats are also free range and carefully sourced from farms and producers we can trust, where quality comes first. Our beef is 24 month reared and then 28 day dry matured to develop beautiful flavour, colour and tenderness for melt in the mouth enjoyment. Our speciality Water Buffalo tastes very similar to beef, but Welcome to Heskin Hall Shopping Village Est 2010 is considered a healthier alternative because Water Buffalo meat contains less fat and cholesterol, but more protein than beef. Our Water Buffalo burgers are just divine! We have a great outdoor plant area offering a huge range of seasonal plants and shrubs that are garden centre quality at wholesale prices; annuals, perennials, shrubs, baskets, pots, planters, alpines plus much more. We also have a great outdoor home improvements showroom, Designer Outdoor Living, who have over 30 years expertise in the home improvement industry, offering garden rooms, summer houses, log cabins, sheds, decking and artificial grass. The Two Birds Tea Room makes an excellent stop for lunch - relaxed dining, hot and cold drinks, plus wines and beers. We offer delicious sandwiches, toasties, homemade soups, fantastic cakes and great coffee, using locally sourced produce. We take bookings for afternoon tea and special occasions, otherwise please just pop along! Relax next to our wood burning stove in winter or patio area in summer. Our location offers easy access from most Lancashire towns and cities, including Preston, Bolton, Southport, Liverpool and Manchester. We’re just 5 minutes from J27 of the M6. With free parking and free entry, we’re a perfect destination if you are looking for a shopping day out in Lancashire. We’re open six days a week.
