Set in an elevated position on the edge of Marple, this remarkable Grade II-listed country house enjoys far-reaching views across the Goyt Valley and surrounding countryside. Ideally placed between the Peak District and Greater Manchester, the property sleeps up to eight guests and offers the perfect base for families and groups of friends seeking rural tranquillity and easy access to local attractions.

Marple (2 miles) is home to independent shops, cafes, pubs, and the famous Marple Locks along the Peak Forest Canal. Outdoor enthusiasts can explore the walking trails, historic house, and deer park at Lyme Park (5 miles), while nearby Etherow Country Park (4 miles) provides scenic woodland walks and waterside wildlife spotting.

Dating back to the 18th century, this distinguished country house seamlessly blends period grandeur with modern comfort.

Throughout the property, original sash windows, ornate cornicing, decorative coving, exposed beams, and feature fireplaces showcase its rich heritage and character. Designed with entertaining and socialising in mind, the house offers two beautiful lounges, each with its own distinctive decor and character.

The drawing room provides a sophisticated space for gathering, while the cosy snug, complete with an open fire, offers a cosy retreat on cooler evenings. At the heart of the home is the stunning kitchen, featuring a central island, breakfast area, and everything needed for preparing memorable meals.

Opening directly onto the terrace and gardens, it seamlessly connects indoor and outdoor living, where breathtaking views across the valley create a spectacular backdrop. A formal dining room sets the scene for celebratory meals and special occasions, while the generous accommodation comprises four beautifully presented bedrooms, including three doubles and one twin.
