The vacation rental

"The Coach House" is a two bedroomed barn conversion offering the modern comforts of under floor heating with the features of beamed ceilings and stone floors.
Originally built to house the coach with two stables for the horses. The lofts above were for the stable boys. During the last century it was converted to milking shippons in the stables with turkeys in the loft!

"The Shippon" is a two bedroomed shippon conversion offering the modern comforts of underfloor heating, fitted kitchen and bathroom with shower.

This unit has been designed to be suitable for the less abled with wider doors and drive-in shower.
Stone flagged floors, oak beams from our own woods and Yeomans cast iron wood burning stove add character to this converted building which has been used for milking cows and the housing of breeding animals.

Stay for a week or a month, come for a holiday, relax, visit friends, family and the area which has many National Trust properties, great scenery and attractions.

Travel information
 

Congleton is approximately six miles from the M6. Popular legend has it that the town's bible was once sold to raise money to buy a new Bear (for the old sport of bear-baiting), the old one having inconsiderately died shortly before the annual Wakes.

When in Congleton drive through the town following the signs to Buxton and the A54. On the edge of the town you go over a canal bridge. Part of the Macclesfield Canal the canal was built by the famous engineer Thomas Telford at the end of the canal boom in 1830.

When you're into open countryside again the road twists and turns and passes the Robin Hood a white public house on the right. It was once used as a court house for dispatching sentences on the locals.

Keep on the main road over the Macclesfield Canal again, over the stone pack-horse bridge on the River Dane (traffic lights on either side). You're now in North Rode. The building by the river on the right is Colley Mill.

You stay on the main road and start to rise up. Across the fields on the right is North Rode viaduct built 1847. The stone used to adorn the frieze, cornice, parapet, river piers and facings of the abutments in the railway arches and also forming the canal locks further up the road was quarried from the hillside across the valley. Rising to a thousand feet the stone came down from Bosley Cloud in a wide groove scored into the hillside by the rock-carrying aerial rope-way cradles.

Under the railway arches and the drive entrance is on the first bend with a large boulder sat in the verge. The boulder is from the edge of our wood above the River Dane it was brought down by ice sheets during the last ice age from the Lake District. The ice mass finished at the wood edge where the sub soils change from heavy clay to gravel.
