  • Graham

    Didn’t use the hot tub on this occasion but perfect spot in the back garden for those that wish too. Really lovely stay and we’d would highly recommend.

  • Andrew

    More directions would help and perhaps a roadside turn off sign? Otherwise, fabulous once we got there.

  • Richard

    Everything was perfect for us, a family of five. The cottage is really clean and cosy with everything you need. The kitchen is well equipped. Wifi is excellent. The farm shop nearby is fantastic with everything you need. Easy access to Manchester and lots of lovely villages nearby with good pubs and shops. The owner was really nice too. We will definitely come back!
