“I had a vehicle broke in issue with my vehicle’s back windshield and left front window broken. The technician from this company is very friendly and highly efficient in finishing the replacement on time. Highly recommend”

“Very helpful and friendly service here. The couple who run this place can't do enough for you. Bought our nursery furniture here and some other bits and bobs. They also have a great selection of toys.”

“Had a great time, very welcoming! Very interesting and would definitely recommend”

“I couldn’t be happier to have chosen such excellent and precious jewellery to purchase the engagement ring to my lovely and beautiful fiancé. They made her the happiest woman on earth with such stunning and unique ring, full of character and elegance, but also they made my life much easier supporting and advising me with their friendliness and knowledge in the making of such important and stressful decision. They made our dream come true with this little stone and hopefully our future will shine as much as it does! Highly recommended to anyone looking for the perfect jewellery for their loved ones or why not themselves.”

“Very nice local place but the local community need to value this beautiful place it’s an asset for Stockport Council please look-after and be respectful to the visitors”

“I took the Liverpool day trip from Manchester, it was great day out, everything worked very well, I will be booking another trip very soon ! thank you”

“Firstly I think it’s important to note this is a cafe that is connected to a family support centre and counselling service. It’s cheap and it is supposed to be somewhere accessible for people who access the services next door, as well as for anybody who uses the park. I actually came here not because of this but because I had attended a baby class in the adjoining room, so my friend and I had coffee and cake here. It’s a great little place, so cheap and the staff are friendly too. There’s a seating area outside as well for warmer days. It’s a lovely little cafe if you’ve had a walk in the park or want to meet a friend with your little ones. They also offer a range of food and I’ve-cream in summer, but we always went primarily for coffee and cake, both of which were always spot on. We used to go here every week after baby classes, and will continue to do so after Covid. This cafe definitely deserves our support so that it stays open in the future.”

“Friendly staff, nice rooms, great location for access to the airport”

“Absolutely wonderful Spa experience! I had an amazing full body massage, enjoyed a relaxing facial and even got a lovely manicure. The staff are so lovely and sweet, especially the lovely Danae who also me through my treatments. Cannot recommend this place enough, always such great service every time!”

“Stopped on the way on holiday and the room, restaurant and service was all good. Booked a last minute night returning due to a very delayed flight, and again got a good rate and good service. The cherry on the top was a surprise bottle of wine to celebrate our honeymoon. Not expected at all and such a lovely gesture. ☺️”

“Only stayed one night but great location if you don't have mobility problems. Very clean and comfortable would definitely stay again”

“Quaint, quiet and serene surrounding . I great getaway”

“Fabulous cut as always. Thank you Sophie for the amazing job you have done restoring my colour.”

“After a recommendation from my daughter I booked The Cottage. What a wonderful find. Great place to stay so clean and comfortable. Lovely woodfire makes it so cosy. Accommodation is great. The bedroom is very comfortable and you can see the stars when in bed. There is also a single room with twin beds. The garden is lovely my two dogs loved it and I knew they were safe as it is well fenced. Lovely walks round the area. After my weeks stay I felt so relaxed and can't wait to go back. A great find.”

“Fabulous afternoon with Clare and her alpaca buddies. We all had so much fun and Clare made it a really interesting afternoon. Loved meeting her beautiful sheep too. Had a very jolly time would definitely recommend a visit”

“I recently visited a farm with alpacas and I have to say it was a delightful experience. The farm was well-maintained and the alpacas were well-cared for. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, and they provided a wealth of information about these fascinating creatures. The highlight of the visit was getting up close and personal with the alpacas. They were friendly and curious, and I was able to feed and even touch them. The farm also offered alpaca walking experiences for £27.50, which was a unique and enjoyable activity.”

“we have been coming to this delightful place for a number of years,and Emma and her mum Pamela are so helpful if u cant see it they will see if they can get it for u. The raw dog food our dogs love andthey also do amazing veg boxes and the bread and muffins are good too[if u see any chocolate brownies they are to die for} Great place and great family run bussiness.100%”

“We have been with the Simply Animals family for nearly 3 years. Gemma, Ryan and team have helped us right along the way, from puppy training, good citizen award, rally and Canicross. We also use Gemma and Ryan for daycare and home boarding. Sansa adores Gemma and I would not leave her with anyone else. I know she’s in safe hands. The facilities and friendly welcome you receive from the team is fabulous; they’ve made us feel part of one big happy dog family.”

“We always use Lodge Boarding Cattery to look after Fuzzy when we go away. Entirely confident that she's looked after properly in a clean, well ran and friendly cattery.”

“The dog walkers are brilliant, I can’t recommend them enough. We have a rescue dog and he was a handful when we took him out for walks but with a lot of help (and perseverance) from Viv and Darren he’s now a joy to walk. He gets so excited when they come to pick him up and it’s obvious Darren & Viv care massively for the dogs they walk. Professional service with great people, I highly recommend”

“First trip to The Woof Bar for my 2 cockapoos. One is very nervous, but Carole was brilliant. She welcomed them and the little walk round the garden to get to know them worked a treat. Carole did a fabulous job with the grooming and her attention to detail fantastic. Two very happy, relaxed doggies when i picked them up, looking lovely and their fur hss never been so soft. Have already booked our next visit. Would definitely recommend Carole @ The Woof Bar.”

“We had a lovely meal here yesterday, service was great and very friendly. Food was lovely, fresh and good value. Will definitely be visiting again.”

“Lovely food at reasonable price. Quick service and comfortable.”

“We have just finished an amazing week’s honeymoon staying in Overlea Farm Cowshed. The cottage was incredible all round. I was particularly impressed with the decor and furnishing. Fantastic quality and great design. We loved the hot tub both on a morning looking out over the fields or on an evening looking at the stars. The fire was fantastic to keep toasty in the evening, though you get full control of the central heating anyway. The owners made us feel very welcome with a wonderful little welcome hamper. When we arrived there was gentle music playing on the Sonos system and a lovely scent from the diffusers. The location is fantastic for anyone with a car as it is super easy to access walks, restaurants and all the top sights in the Peaks within about 30 mins drive. We would absolutely recommend a stay here and would love to visit again.”

“We stayed in the shepherds hut was a comfortable couple of nights. Had a hairdryer, shower gel, shampoo , washing up liquid which surprised us . A pint of milk in fridge was a lovely welcome . Lots of books to read, we took a radio too . Very impressed with the hut and we will be back”

“Very friendly and accommodating staff. Extremely well decorated and comfortable rooms. Excellent peaceful location - would definitely recommend!”

“Our second visit to Ash Farm and didn't disappoint. Another warm welcome from Jan, David and Christian. Rooms are lovely and clean and well stocked with the normal tea, coffee etc Breakfast is excellent, so much choice and cooked to order. 5 minute walk to Dunham Massey and lovely homely pub next door with a real coal fire”
