The owners of the cottage put in some nice touches , such as decorating the cottage with christmas decorations over the christmas period.. Cottage was nice and warm throughout.

Mr Bagshaw, December 2019

The cottage was lovely, it had a slightly different lay out to what your website said.. It has a halogen job, a full size fridge/ freezer and a separate shower. It has plenty of kitchen utensils and was very welcoming as we were there at Christmas and they had put up a tree and decorations. It is in a lovely quiet spot and we wouldn’t hesitate to go back.

For a quite retreat, an ideal setting with lovely views this cottage is ideal.. Perfect for dogs owner's come all weathers, as the floor downstairs was easy to keep clean and upstairs was comfortable and warm. Not to far to travel for shops in the Town of Cheadle and within easy walks in woodlands.

My family and I had a wonderful stay at Horseshoe Cottage, which we found to be a lovely, clean, tidy, and cosy base for us to explore the surrounding area.. Everything we could possibly need had been provided, even down to instruction manuals for the kitchen appliances being left easily accessible should we have run into any problems.There were shops and pubs/restaurants within a ten minute drive of the cottage, and plenty to do to entertain our two young children within an hour's drive, including Alton Towers, Poole's Caverns, and Waterworld Stoke. I would highly recommend Horseshoe Cottage, it was the perfect countryside retreat!

Owners very welcoming , lovely walks and a great escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life.. Mobile phone signal quite poor which may not suit some people.

Mr Farrant

This cottage is deceptively larger than it looks from the outside, it is extremely well equipped with everything you could possibly need.. Lovely enclosed garden for the dogs, and plenty of walks from the farm. The only downside was, the radiator in the bathroom wasn’t working, which was a little on the chilly side as it was snowing outside, also bath sheets would be nice as towels are very small. Having said that this is a beautiful cottage and we had a lovely stay, it was very quiet, with lots of wildlife, we would love to return in the summer.

Mr Cameron

September 2016

We had an enjoyable stay in this nice cottage.. The positives certainly out-weighed the negatives. It would have been nice to have Wi_Fi & a Mobile phone signal, but a week without internet was not the end of the world. The bigger downside was that the guests in the twin bedroom, slept poorly, due to the constant noise created by the Boiler/Radiator. This was something previous guests had commented on in the Visitors Book. The directions to the property need updating, as the Highwayman Pub has long gone,being replaced by newish housing. All in all a great week away, & hope these comments are helpful. Regards REX CAMERON

The setting was perfect for a relaxing break after finishing our A-levels. It was so quiet and peaceful. The cottage was beautiful and very well equipped.
