The Stables is a charming, single-storey holiday home situated on The Dark Peak Vineyard in the quaint village of Mellor near Marple Bridge, Greater Manchester.

With off-road parking, family-friendly amenities and welcoming two canine friends, this delightful retreat is perfect for families or friends seeking a serene countryside escape.

Step inside this charming single-storey retreat and discover a generous open-plan living space thoughtfully designed to combine kitchen, dining, and sitting areas in perfect harmony.

After dinner, settle into the sitting room, where plush seating invites you to unwind while the woodburner gently crackles, creating a welcoming atmosphere as you watch your favourite programme.

Venture out onto the patio to make the most of the outdoors, whether it’s dining al fresco on the provided furniture or simply relaxing with a good book and a steaming cup of tea, all while soaking in the peaceful setting.

Dark Peak Vineyard Holiday Cottages

Dark Peak Vineyard Holiday Cottages are a pairing of wonderful holiday homes resting in Mellor, which is just outside of Manchester and on the edge of the stunning Peak District National Park. The Plucking Shed (1176360) and The Stables (1176720) are set right next to each other and are a great choice for couples, families or even a small group of friends who are seeking a peaceful retreat in this charming part of the country. From the farm, you can walk into the Peak District National Park, with hundreds of miles of walking and cycling routes. Or you can catch the train from Marple, a short walk/drive away, into the heart of the Peaks. Go and explore the Hope Valley, or climb Jacob’s Ladder to take in the views from Kinder Scout. There are plenty of walking and cycling routes around the farm and village too, with four excellent local pubs all reachable on foot, and more options in Marple Bridge just a mile down the hill. It’s always just a short walk back across the fields after a good meal in Mellor – a great spot for foodies. If you want a break from your hiking boots, catch the train or take the bus into Stockport or Manchester for a night of fine dining, theatre, sport or music. The bright lights of Manchester city centre are just 20 minutes away by train. Dark Peak Vineyard Holiday Cottages are perfect for a hybrid rural-city break.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.
