Stonecroft is a charming, characterful house wrapped by a well-tended garden that can't fail to instil a sense of tranquillity. It's located a hundred metres from the start of the Pennine Way; well-placed for ascents up to Hollins Cross for Mam Tor, or Jacob's Ladder for Kinder Low. It's a two-minute walk between two public houses, a general store and cafe. The house is superbly maintained to a high level of detail and a very high level of cleanliness; you won't find any bathroom mold or cheap bedsheets here. This is achieved without sacrificing any of the building's period charm or homely touches; this is still, primarily, an outdoorist's B&B. It's just a very good one. Hospitable to a fault, Julia went out of her way to ensure everything was catered for, with numerous personal touches revealing a true passion for her work. She's an excellent chef, meticulously catering for different diets, whilst leveraging the best of local produce. There's a lovely range of fresh leaf teas, packed lunches on request, and good conversation if you so choose. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay, and hope to return soon.
