Lomber Hey House was built in 1550 and is set in lovely grounds, surrounded by fields. Within this stone-built house there is a simply furnished one-bedroomed self-contained apartment.

It consists of a double bedroom  with en-suite bathroom, a small dining kitchen and a comfortable sitting room. It is decorated in a cottage style to complement the beautiful country house, of which it is part.

The apartment has its own separate entrance, but the gardens are available to be enjoyed, particularly in the summer months.

Tucked away, surrounded by fields, this apartment is still only a few minutes from Lyme Park (of Pride and Prejudice fame) and the A6 route between Stockport and Buxton. Buxton and the Peak District are a 20 minute drive away.

Close by Lomber Hey is the High Peak Canal, with Marple locks and access to the 'Cheshire Ring', and there are many walks and cycle rides.

A direct train service to Manchester and Buxton is close by. The area is served by many traditional country pubs, offering meals and many of them are within a short walk or drive.

Central heating, electric cooker, slow cooker, microwave, fridge are all provided. as are TV, hair dryer, iron and ironing board. Bed linen and towels are included in the price.

No pets please. Please note that there is a short flight of steepish stairs to the apartment, which might not suit the elderly or infirm, or anyone with walking difficulties.
