  • "We had a very enjoyable stay at The Granary."

    It was spotlessly clean, with everything you could wish for. A great base for exploring the area, fantastic walks, breweries & micro pubs. A week was just not long enough.

    Thank you so much for your lovely comments. I have never thought of mentioning our local micro breweries before so your suggestions are amazing! Hope to see you in the future to continue your exploration. Property Owner

    Everything you could want for a peaceful break. Views are beautiful. Shops short drive away. We stayed as a go between to see more cities and couldn’t ask for more. We even was able to witness some chicks being born.

    Thank you for the lovely comments. I have to say the chicks were a big surprise to us as well They are growing so fast and already flying up to the perches to get a view out! So glad you all enjoyed your stay. Property Owner

    The owners also thoughtfully fill the fridge, freezer and cupboards with food so there is no need to rush out for supplies as soon as you arrive. Centrally located to visit the Peak District and surrounding area but in a tranquil spot. Hope to return at some point and would highly recommend.

    It great that the fridge and freezer are full and fresh fruit and eggs from the chickens which I love watching running round just outside the window. Lots of great place to walk, we love walking around Biddulph gardens well worth a visit also worth a visit is Jodrell Bank great for all the family. Lovely and relaxing holiday would definitely recommend staying here.

    The owners were welcoming and friendly. Being on a working farm the sound of the chickens and lambs was a welcome break from the usual traffic noise. The well stocked fridge and freezer was very pleasing which meant we didn’t have to think about going to the supermarket on the way to the property, the kids especially liked the well stocked cookie draw and biscuits jars.

    Could not fault it. Felt like home away from home from the moment we arrived. The full fridge on arrival was amazing. We loved seeing the lambs and chickens just outside the house. Plenty to do within the area with Alton Towers, numerous National Trust places and the peak district all within a short drive. Overall very highly reccomended. 5 stars isn't enough!

    The owner had kindly filled the cupboards and fridge with food for us, which was lovely. When we met the rest of the family, they were also so friendly and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. The Granary was clean, comfortable and warm and was in a lovely place with extensive views. Everything you needed was provided for from kitchen utensils to linen and towels which was great. We would like to say “Thank you” to Janet, Cynthia and all the family and feel that we have made some lovely friends. We would definitely recommend The Granary to anyone who wants a lovely, restful holiday with owners who really make you feel at home. Thanks again

    It’s a lovely cosy warm house with everything you need. The hosts are lovely but not interfering - we had particularly bad weather whilst I was there and they dropped me a message to warn me that the power may go out and where the torches were, when it snowed they gave advice of where to be careful but that I’d still be able to get to work, offered logs for the fire when it got cold. It was brilliant to be able to feel at home whilst working away. Id recommend the cottage to anybody!

Having some food in the freezer, fridge and cupboard to get the week started is such a thoughtful touch, so that your guests don’t have to go off to the supermarket or arrange a delivery straight after a long journey. There are plenty of great places to visit and explore in the area and we would love to come back to see what else we can discover.

    We really didn't need to take anything with us food wise. The only thing we were disappointed with and its no fault of the owners but the cottage was situated where there was nowhere to walk from it as the roads were narrow and there were no footpaths anywhere near.[That we could find] Just a small point for anyone who likes walking.

    Janet and Cynthia are really welcoming and the cottage is beautiful. All thr little touches make it the best cottage we have ever stayed in by a margin. Location is very convenient for the Potteries and Cheshire, only 5 mins from a supermarket but nicely isolated on the moors. WiFi is now pretty good now, better than previous, enough to stream. We also had a meal with friends at the pub down the road which was very good if you don't want to cook. Look forward to returning.

  • "We chose this cottage as we were meeting up with friends living nearby."

    Both location and description of the property suited our needs. The cottage is high up in the hills and when weather permits allows fantastic views over superb countryside. On arrival we were warmly met by Janet who gave us all the information we needed for our stay, It's always nice to meet the owners face to face. We have holidayed with Sykes over the years and most owners have left a welcome pack on arrival. On reading the reviews I was amazed on the comprehensive welcome pack awaiting us. The cottage itself was spotless, comfy beds and everything we needed for our stay. The log burner was a bonus, we had to light it twice as it was rude not to. We really didn't need to as the heating system was excellent. Found a real quirky pub..... The Black Lion at Butterton. Rudyard Lake is well worth a visit. Go to Tissington village, have a look around the quaint shop, the Hall.....what a fabulous piece of history. Trentham gardens for some retail therapy. For you train spotters there is the Churnet Valley heritage line but check to see operational days. Jodrell Bank is visible from the grounds of the property. We have booked for next year!!!!!
