If you thought Sheffield was all about stainless steel then think again. Sheffield is the UK's fourth largest city and one of the greenest cities in Europe with gardens, parks and lots of wide open spaces and to top it all the Peak District National Park is on the doorstep. This vibrant city has a lively arts, crafts and culture scene and is home to the iconic Crucible Theatre. In fact Sheffield has the largest theatre complex outside London offering both in-house productions and touring shows. The Millenium Gallery is the city's premier place for art, craft and design showcasing Sheffield's amazing heritage alongside contemporary design. The Winter Garden is one of the largest temperate glasshouses to be built during the last hundred years in the UK. This impressive, multi-award-winning building houses a stunning collection of over 2,500 plants from around the world. Located in the centre of the UK, Sheffield is such an accessible city and, once there, getting around is fun if you hop on and off the super tram which takes you around the city and beyond. Why not hop on a super tram from the city centre and visit Meadowhall, one of Europe's largest shopping malls? Foodies will love the city with its great selection of independent restaurants, well known eateries and lots of coffee shops serving tempting freshly baked cakes and pastries.

It has a really handy footpath nearby which went into Millhouses park, which was great for the dog. Also convenient for city centre, whilst being very quiet. Everything we needed for the weekend whilst our son was swimming at Ponds Forge.

The house was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Tracey was there when we arrived and was at the end of the phone, when we had a question, throughout our stay. Will was very responsive when the smoke alarm went off due to a problem with the oven door that they are getting replaced. The beds are very comfortable. The on suite has a soft mattress which we loved but others are firmer if you prefer that. The internet can go down for a short time in the evenings when the demand increases but we were able to get it back on by rebooting the router. We noticed that the water, when running a bath, runs hot then cold for a minute or two but if you leave the taps on it goes hot again and runs a lovely hot bath. There is a path into the woods and Millhouses park by the house next door and that is ideal for dogs. The back garden doesnât have a gate but there is an old door to slide across to keep small dogs in the garden. We didnât use the garden as it was wet and quite dark during our stay but we didnât need it with the park being so close. We would recommend the house for other visitors. Ideally placed in the South of Sheffield for local walks and the Peak District as well as Sheffield City Centre.
