Snaptrip says

Guests have praised the cottages for their superb condition, tasteful decoration, and beautiful setting. The welcome hampers and fresh flowers were appreciated, enhancing the overall experience. Some minor issues were noted, but these did not significantly detract from the enjoyment of the stay.

Guests that stayed at this property said

The property is consistently described as clean and well-maintained, indicating high standards of cleanliness.

The location is described as beautiful and great, suggesting that it is a strong asset for the property.

Overall, guests found the cottages comfortable, though there were comments about low ceilings affecting more rooms than anticipated, which could impact comfort for some visitors.

Facilities were generally good, but there were several mentions of issues such as problematic wifi, a damp games room, and kitchenware not fitting in the dishwasher, indicating room for improvement.

The welcome hampers and fresh flowers were mentioned positively, showing thoughtfulness. However, as gifts are not guaranteed, future guests should consider this a delightful bonus rather than an expectation.

About this property

This fine cottage offers comfortable living in a historic setting, next to the former Cheshire Hunt Inn from which the Hunt used to ride. It enjoys wonderful country views and is in walking distance of the old mill village of Bollington.

Damson Cottage and Orchard Cottage are the result of a barn conversion completed in 2008. The original building, dating back to the 1850's, is situated next to a local landmark, the former Cheshire Hunt Inn from which the Hunt used to ride. The cottages do have their own separate facilities.

Described by the Peak District Authority as a property of architectural interest, the barn is located on a small track, which winds its way up through the valley, which forms part of the well-known walkers' path, the Gritstone Trail. The luxury self-catering retreat has been individually furnished and has its own unique character. Enjoying wonderful views over the open countryside, the cottage is within walking distance of the old mill village of Bollington, with its pubs, restaurants, local shops and parks.
