Took my wife for her birthday along with my son and dog, we had a wonderful stay and made full use of the hot tub. The owners communication was fab throughout and went over and above with teabags, milk and even bacon in the fridge making sure to cover anything we may have missed. None of which we expected, but it made our stay extra special. Lots of walks and we went to the local pub wagon and horses for tea. Would use again! Thank you

Rachel & Steve made us very welcome with some thoughtful goodies on arrival. The hot tub was ready and waiting which was a definite highlight of our weekend. The cottage is beautifully designed and furnished. We enjoyed a takeaway delivery and travelled easily into Manchester City Centre. We would definitely love to return.

We enjoyed our stay at the cottage. It was very cosy and the hot tub was brilliant However the shower didnt work in one of the rooms which was difficult as we were sharing with four people. The shower knob also fell off. The kitchen was well stocked and the fridge had all the esentials
