    We chose this accommodation carefully because of its great location. Communication and location/directions, information re parking was excellent. The apartment is contempory, kept beautifully. Beds were very comfortable with good quality bedding. Kitchen was well equipped. Comfortable seating and dining table. Which seated us 4 adults and could accommodate more comfortably. Parking was close and easy to access. We loved Macclesfield town and visited the craft fair in the town hall and had a superb meal on saturday night in a local bistro. We visited Macclesfield forest and had a lovely walk, and a rest at a pub next to the reservoir. Not forgetting the Cat & Fiddle , now the Forest distillery where we had a taste of the gin and whisky. It was a shame we weren't there for the treacle market at the end of the month. We had a fabulous time, loved this beautifully kept apartment and its location making it ideal to explore the surrounding area and will definitely be back!

    Couldn’t get Gramophone to play Unknown Pleasures- loved the vinyl collection.

    We really liked the apartment, nicely furnished, very clean, great bathrooms and comfortable beds. We enjoyed hearing the Church bells. The location was great, the cobbled street and surrounding buildings adds to the charm, it’s a few minutes walk from train station and 15mins drive from the REWIND festival. Car park is 5 mins round the corner down the hill. Top tip-best not to talk on the way up! James, the Owner was friendly and attentive to the stay experience of his guests and maintains a high spec of his property. We highly recommend this accommodation for a lovely stay in Macclesfield😊

    The rest of the girls were saying how comfortable the mattress was. The middle bedroom needs a change of mattress. Only a slight criticism we all like different types. Just my preference

    Fabulous location lovely accommodation

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. A very stylish space with plenty of room for five adults and a baby. Close to amenities and only a short walk to a car park. The property was spotlessly clean and James was very helpful and responded quickly to messages.

    Liked everything, however needed an extra chair in the lounge area and some blinds/curtains on the lounge window.

    In the heart of Macclesfield, beautifully decorated, 3 bathrooms, lovely kitchen and a fantastic retro record player. Close to lovely restaurants and activities; we enjoyed our guided tour of the Silk Museum and walk around Teggs Nose Country Park.

    Only negative was if traveling by car there is no on site parking however the host sends over details for all the local car parks and costs along with instructions if coming in via train.

    The house was beautiful well decorated and spacious. The host had supplied the basic amenities like milk and tea. The house is well placed for travel I'm via train and placed in the town centre with a short walk to many restaurants or take aways. It was sad to leave at the end of the stay.
