Rowan knitting & fabric weekends
We are the nearest B+B to Rowan Yarns – it’s just a 3 minute walk down the hill.
Sculpture & pottery courses
We are about 5 minutes’ drive from Sculpture Lounge and less than 10 minutes from Booth House Gallery.
Photography workshops
We are 2 doors down the road from Andrew Sanderson.
Fabric workshops
Convenient for Dionne Swift’s fabric and devoré workshops (a few minutes by car, 20 minutes on foot).
Walkers & cyclists
If you’re cycling we have a locked shed for overnight storage and there’s a hose if you need to wash your bike down. If you’re walking the Pennine Way please let us know as (for a small fee) we may be able to collect you in the evening and take you back in the morning (we are about 5 miles / 8 km from where the Pennine Way crosses the A635 Manchester road).
