One of the seven communities spread throughout the 18,0000 acres of moorland hills, open fields, and picturesque valleys that make up the Saddlworth region is Uppermill. Saddleworth has developed into a charming South Pennine and Peak District National Park location with breath-taking views and magnificent stone built structures, despite the fact that these Pennine settlements have a wool spinning and agricultural past reaching back to the Industrial Revolution. Upper Mill is a bustling tourist destination with a good selection of amenities, including lots of eateries, cafes, and pubs as well as an increasing number of craft stores. It is situated next to the recently renovated Standedge Canal Tunnel, Britain's longest, deepest, and highest canal tunnel, which is a part of the West Riding of Yorkshire. The town's canal offers chances for boating, fishing, and towpath walks without encountering any traffic. Uppermill is home to a singular sport known as "cobbling." Come see for yourself how a bag of cement, a closed road, and a barrel of cobblestones are involved. The most well-known festival and community event in Saddleworth is the Whit Friday Band contest, which draws the best brass bands from the UK and Europe and served as the setting for the movie "Brassed Off." Dovestones Reservoir, where you can go boating and go on hikes, and the Castleshaw Valley, where there is an interpretative path for a Roman fort—the tallest of a series built on the Roman military road from Chester to York—are two nearby attractions.

The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was warn and spacious. There was a jacuzzi bath (which we did not use) and a walk-in shower which we did use. Apart from being rather dark and s very small small dining table we had an enjoyable stay at Moor Cottage.
