Originally part of an 18th century stone barn, Clough Brook Cottage has been sympathetically converted to self-catering accommodation of an exceptionally high standard.

Located in a peaceful valley yet only 20 minutes away from Leek, Buxton and Macclesfield, the cottage is the perfect base from which to explore the unspoilt scenery of the Peak District National Park and the many attractions of Cheshire and Staffordshire. And some of the most magnificent walking country in Britain is right on your doorstep.

Ground floor:

The cottage is entered through an ancient stable door and a rear hallway with hanging space for outdoor clothes. Off the hallway is a cloakroom with WC and hand-basin.

Kitchen/dining room: The cosy cottage style kitchen is fully equipped with a dishwasher, automatic washing machine, twin oven cooker and grill, fridge freezer, microwave and furnished with unique handmade driftwood furniture.

Shower room: Power shower.

Upstairs:

Lounge: Being on the first floor, this room makes the most of the superb views down the valley towards Clough Brook and the River Dane. Two sofas, one of which converts into a bed as needed, colour TV, VCR, DVD and a Hi-Fi with a CD player.

Bedroom 1: Double bed, handmade bedroom furniture and handbasin. Views to Hanging Stone and The Roaches.

Bedroom 2: Twin beds, handmade bedroom furniture and handbasin

Bathroom: Bath, with hand shower, WC and wash basin.

Although Wincle feels like a long way from anywhere, it’s actually only minutes away from the local towns of Macclesfield, Buxton, Congleton and Leek which, between them, have all the shops and services you might need.

There is a great selection of eating and drinking places in the area serving local beers and freshly prepared food. We will be happy to book tables at local pubs or restaurants, and trout fishing at the local trout lake. You can let us know if you would like a delivery of papers and milk.
