Orchard Cottage (Cheshire) details

Orchard Cottage is one of two Cheshire Hunt holiday cottages in Rainow on the Cheshire border. Orchard and Damson (CH003) are the result of a barn conversion completed in 2008. The original building, dating back to the 1850s, is situated next to a local landmark, the former Cheshire Hunt Inn from which the Hunt used to ride. 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.

The holiday rental provides an excellent base for visitors to reach many of the attractions in the Peak District such as the well-known spa town of Buxton and the underground caverns at Castleton. A short distance away from a number of attractions in neighbouring Cheshire, holiday guests have many places to visit including three National Trust properties; Tatton Park, Dunham Massey and Lyme Park. Manchester with its excellent museums, shops and restaurants is a 45-minute drive away and the picturesque Roman city of Chester is an hour away for those who wish to travel a bit further afield.

Orchard and Damson Cottages have their own separate facilities but are available for hire together for extended family holidays to accommodate 11 guests. Manchester Airport is 30 minutes' drive away and Macclesfield train station a 10-minute drive, which provides good train connections and a regular two-hour train service to London. A games room with full size table tennis and pool tables is available for the use of the occupants of both Orchard and Damson Cottages and is located within the grounds of the barn.

The grounds of Melmerby Hall also include woodland paths, water meadow and a tributary to the River Eden.

Kirkbride Hall was completed in early 2015 and although new, offers all the comforts of a traditional Cumbrian cottage including sandstone walls using stone sourced from within our estate, solid oak floors, antique furniture, and a large welcoming wood burning stove in the comfortable lounge.

The village of Melmerby is set within the heart of the Eden Valley at the foot of the majestic Pennine fells and the famous Hartside pass which climbs to 1904 ft above sea level. An awe inspiring viewpoint on a clear day to take in the entire Eden Valley, the Lake District and, on occasion, southern Scotland! Melmerby also offers a host of facilities to our guests, including an award winning village bakery (providing delicious lunches, bread freshly baked daily on the premises, cakes, hot drinks and lots of gluten free options.), a well-stocked village shop, tea room and post office, a super antique shop (The Brocante Emporium), and a wonderful traditional Cumbrian pub due to re-open in Summer 2015.

The property is just over a mile from Greystoke Village which has a lovely village shop, a traditional Lakeland pub, the Boot and Shoe, a heated swimming pool and Greystoke castle with its 3,000 acres of woodland grounds, with the deer park now open for country walks.

In addition to its own private garden, parking and seating areas around the property, also contained within the grounds of Blencowe Hall is a tributary of the River Petteril which has brown trout fishing. Other outdoor pursuits can easily be arranged including salmon fishing, clay pigeon shooting, pony trekking, sailboat hire and cycle tours along the popular C2C cycle route which passes through the village. The fantastic views over the Lakeland Hills and peaceful setting make Cazenovia Hall ideal for walkers or guests seeking a "get away from it all" location from which they can enjoy the Lake District without being overrun by other visitors.
Other popular local attractions include Hutton in the Forest and its extensive grounds which are just a few miles away, Lowther Castle, and one of Alfred Wainwright's favourite walks in the Lake District which winds along just above the shores of Ullswater and forms a fantastic loop journey with a leg back along the famous Ullswater Steamers.

Blencowe is easily accessible from the Penrith train station (three hours direct from Euston) and a 10 minute taxi ride. It is about four miles from Junction 40 of the M6.
