    if you're coming up from the Sarf via Rail, you're best getting off at Wilmslow

      If you want to maximise your revenue, look at staying in Northwich or even cheaper (but rougher) in Winsford. Northwich is about 8 or 9 miles from Knutsford but is far cheaper for everything. It is also on the same railway line.

        Last time I was there, someone stole the "C" from the street sign!

            I presume you will be working at Radbroke hall for Barclays. They will have directions to Radbroke barn, which is were all the Barclays' contractors stay. I enjoyed my time there and the brekkies are excellent. The proprietor is a mad eccentric old squire who always made I larf.

            Radbroke barn turning is almost directly opposite a pub called the "Whipping Stocks" which is a Sam Smiths pub so very very cheap beer.

            Yep the barn is good to stay but space is pretty thin on the ground at present due to all the new contractors barclays have taken on including me.
            AND the propieter is deffo far on the eccentric scale, my last time staying there he was serving bucks fizz on Fridays to go with the cooked breakfast.

            Another decent bet is the Moss Farm (Home Page_Moss Farm_Cheadle Lane_Lower Peover_Knutsford_Cheshire_WA16 9SW) or if you are really stuck pm me and I can pass on a number of another place that was recommended.

                Maybe Wilmslow will let you stay over. You just have to roomshare with his gf's hound.
                Oh, I’m sorry….I seem to be lost. I was looking for the sane side of town. I’d ask you for directions, but I have a feeling you’ve never been there and I’d be wasting my time.
