Meadow Cottage is one of several of our cottages in Staffordshire close to the Manifold Valley. It is situated in the isolated but very picturesque village of Butterton, situated high up on moorland in the Peak District National Park. There is a quaint ford in Butterton where the Hoo Brook runs across a cobbled village street, reminiscent of a scene from long ago. The road leads steeply down from Butterton to Wetton Mill where there is a wonderful tea rooms at the side of the River Manifold and alongside the Manifold Way. This was the former route of the Manifold Light Railway which closed in the 1930’s and now provides a wonderful track for walkers and cyclists in the bottom of the valley leading from Hulme End along an 8-mile route to Waterhouses.
