This was our second visit to Sheep Meadow and it was just as relaxing as our first - with the added treat of Christmas decorations!The accommodation is spacious, clean, comfortable and very well equipped. Location is perfect - remote enough to feel peaceful but also close enough to shops a short drive away in Cheadle. Host, Mary, is friendly, easy to contact and very responsive. We look forward to returning again to watch the sheep from the hot tub :)

Loved our stay here! Its in the perfect location if you want to get away from it but also have kids and want to be close by to lots of things to do. 20 minutes to Alton Towers and CBeebies land, 15 minutes to the wildlife park and a soft play just down the road. The host was so helpful and made our stay perfect. We cant wait to come back again in the future.
