Paddock Cottage -- dating back to the 17th century

Lyme Park, on the A6 south of Stockport and just north of Disley is an excellent park for walking, cycling or just enjoying the countryside with the family -- a medieval deer park, beautiful moorland and lots of woodland to explore.

Lyme Hall, a Tudor house converted into an Italianate palace in the early 18th century, is the centrepiece -- it was the home of the Legh family from 1346 until 1946 when it became a National Trust property.

Parts of the 1995 TV film 'Pride and Prejudice' were filmed here -- Lyme Hall appeared as 'Pemberley'.
