What guests are saying
What a fabulous find … just outside of Sheffield but you could be in the middle of nowhere - great walks and fabulous pub for Sunday dinner - we had a great weekend away
We booked this place for a book retreat weekend and had the most amazing time.
The house had everything you could need and more. It was so peaceful, well decorated and felt like a home away from home. We will definitely be back.
Superbe cottage très bien équipé, perdu au milieu de nul part et pourtant a 10 minutes de tous les commerces.
Idéal pour se ressourcer. Barbara et Franck les propriétaires sont très attentionnés et à l’écoute Une belle rencontre.

Property notes
Please note - Built into the hillside, this 500 year old property has several levels internally as well as some low beams. Externally, ground surfaces are uneven.
The 500m track from Oaks Lane to the Cruck Cottage will comfortably take a food supermarket delivery van or transit van, but nothing much wider.
Sadly, Wyndell is probably not a good choice for those with mobility issues.
Please note: no stag or hen parties or similar
