The village of Waterhouses lies between the market towns of Leek and Ashbourne on the southern fringes of the Peak National Park.

The track is flat and traffic free for cyclists, walkers and horse-riders. Waterhouses offers a selection of shops, pubs and places to eat. The famous Alton Towers Theme Park is only a short drive away.

Tasteful decoration of the cottage. Warm and friendly welcome. Feeding the pony! Visiting Rudyard Lake and travelling on the steam train

The location is superb, an excellent cycle track and within easy road access of many local attractions. The cottage itself was warm, cosy, clean and ideal for all the family.

The location was good within easy reach of all amenities, especially Alton Towers. We particularly like the bike hire being included. The owner/caretaker was very welcoming and friendly. The cottage was roomy, clean and comfortable. We would definitely consider revisiting Greenside cottage again.

The cottage was practically on the Manifold cycle track! No busy roads to cross. Our daughter could safely cycle around the yard with no risk. Friendly and helpful service from the owners.

The owners were very friendly and made us most welcome. The cottage was situated in a superb location on the edge of the Peak District but also within easy reach of Stoke and the potteries. The accommodation was clean and comfortable.
