Lindow Common, a Site of Special Scientific Interest and Lindow Moss, are both adjacent to the farm for walks amongst the peatland and the cities of Manchester, Chester and Liverpool together with the Peak District National Park are all easily accessible.

Had a lovely stay for our first wedding anniversary. A beautiful setting and so private it’s like you are in your own woodland!

We had a beautiful 4 night stay here! The location is perfect- 20 mins on the train to Manchester city centre, and less than an hour away from some of the best towns in the Peak District. Wilmslow itself is also a lovely town to explore, with local walks and some great restaurants and pubs.Our favourite part was of course the hot tub! Although it did take a while to get going on the first night, it kept heat really well for the rest of our stay so wasn't an issue at all. The hut itself is perfect- super cosy and cute, with lovely little touches from the hosts. Tony was super approachable, and quickly replied to any messages whenever we needed to reach out. Also a big shoutout to the staff at the bus tea room- they were so friendly! Overall, a perfect stay and we would love to return.P.S Jake the Cat was the highlight of our whole weekend, you will adore him if you're a cat person!

Very relaxing break. Hot tub always better on the second usage. Very peaceful and quiet - no noise at all, barring the deep rumbles from Manchester Airport, which were neither loud nor disturbing. Would thoroughly recommend for anyone wanting to get away from everyone, from too much sound and sensation.
