The cottages are graded 5 star gold by Enjoy England, and are winners of a multitude of other awards, including Enjoy England’s Gold Award for exceptional quality of accommodation and service this year and the TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence 2016, amongst many others.

Ivor and Lyn welcomed David and Katrina with a tour and overview of the cottages and fresh scones and tea in one of their lovingly restored cottages. Ivor said: “We were delighted to welcome David and Katrina to Kerridge End Cottages. The Cottages started out as out-buildings to our family home.  However, we wanted to make the most of our beautiful location in the village of Rainow by transforming the coach house, hayloft and stable into top quality self-catering cottages, to provide guests with the best possible stay to enjoy the beautiful surroundings we have on our doorstep.”

David Rutley, Macclesfield MP, said: “It was fantastic to visit Kerridge End Cottages and meet Ivor and Lyn. Their commitment to providing the best possible experience for visitors is wonderful to see, together with their attention to detail and the quality of the accommodation they provide.
