great relaxing atmosphere with hosts who go the extra mile.

During our stay Ian and Liz made us feel very welcome, the walks in the area are outstanding and the fact we could bring our dog was a bonus. The accommodation (Holly cottage) was lovely and the welcome pack of home made bread, jam and eggs made us feel very comfortable. It was very relaxing and the spa in particular was a wonderful way of ending our day. We would recommend Magpie cottages...to any of our friends who require a place to relax.

Business overview

Self Catering Holiday Cottages in Marple, Stockport & Cheshire with spa and holistic treatments. Bring your horse on holiday and pony summer camps. Read our 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ reviews.

Nestled in the heart of the Goyt Valley, Magpie Cottages and Spa are situated on the banks of the river Goyt and form part of Lower Dale Farm Equestrian Centre (British Horse Society Highly Commended). You can also bring your horses on holiday. With picturesque walks in all directions, you can watch for our King Fisher pair, also observe the birds of prey and the numerous herons from the banks of the river.

Conveniently situated just 2 minutes drive from Rose Hill and Marple Stations for a 25-minute journey to Manchester city centre, only 20 minutes driving distance from Manchester airport and 15 minutes drive to Stockport. Edale is just 15 miles away which is in the heart of the Peak District.

Originally built as stables, the 5 cottages have been renovated to a high specification, whilst remaining sympathetic to the original stone features.

Each cottage contains a double bedroom, large bathroom (with bath and shower), kitchen with hob, oven, fridge, toaster, kettle and microwave. We have a purpose-built laundry room, with washing machine + dryer plus additional freezer and fridge space. The open plan living and dining area has 2 sofas, one of which folds out to a full-sized double bed (sleeps up to 4). Flat screen TV with free sat, DVD player, CD player with iPod dock, wi-fi internet, picnic hamper, bedding and towels included, cots available on request and a free welcome pack on arrival (homemade organic bread, local honey/homemade jam, organic butter, free-range eggs-subject to chickens!! Selection of drinks and basic cleaning products). There is ample car parking, electric gates and CCTV for peace of mind security. All Cottages are non-smoking. For larger groups our 5 cottages can be interlinked to sleep any number from 2 to 20.

If you need accommodation in Stockport or that little bit extra relaxation on your break you can use our tropical spa (hot tub. sauna and steam room) or book relaxing treatments.

Testimonials

Place is so peaceful and the spa was a great treat to relax.

We stayed at Magpie Cottages for three nights after getting married at Hyde Bank Farm. Liz was a fantastic host and we loved our stay from start to finish. The place is so peaceful and the spa was a great treat to relax. I also booked a full body massage which was fantastic! Highly recommend a stay here..

Start to finish we have thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

What an amazing 2 night myself & my friend have had with our 2 horses! From start to finish we have thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Liz and Ian have been so accommodating & the tour of the yard and cottage was so indepth everything was talked about. We had the most amazing curry from Peppers their in-house chef 🌶. 15minute away from the pub 'Duke of York' serving great food! The 🌞 shone! We will be back! Thank you

Can’t wait to be back. Amazing

Just arrived back from an 4 days camp at Lowerdale. Exceptional from start to finish. The ponies settled straight away, such a peaceful and well kept yard. All the staff are so friendly and willing to help/answer questions. The cottage was home from home. Very comfortable, clean with all the facilities

I'm already hoping I can squeeze in another trip this year!

Very impressed. Well run, organised, Spa is great. Just so lovely to be able to ride safely with my dog and take them both in the river together for a cool down after a hack. Accommodation is great also. Horse shower and three massive gas barbeques available to use. There are always improvements that can be made to make something absolutely perfect. Overall this place isn't very far off! I'm already hoping I can squeeze in another trip this year!!
