Holly Cottage

Holly Cottage sits in Langley, a village positioned between Macclesfield Forest and Teggs Nose Country Park, making it an obvious base for anyone planning to walk or cycle in this corner of Cheshire. Shutingsloe and other peaks are accessible directly from the village. The gin distillery and ice cream farm are both nearby, and Macclesfield, Buxton and Leek—each with their own markets, independent shops and restaurants—are within easy reach by car.

The cottage is a converted 19th-century mill worker's property with two bedrooms upstairs (one double, one single sofa bed suitable for a child only) and a bathroom with a bath and shower. Downstairs you'll find a living room with a woodburner and a kitchen-diner with a full cooker, microwave, fridge and freezer. A stream runs through the back garden, and there's a roof terrace with furniture and views across the hills. Wi-Fi, heating, bed linen and towels are all included. One dog can stay for free. There is on-road parking. The cottage does not permit children under six, and it has spiral stairs that are steep and narrow.
