Welcome to Sunnyside B&B in the lovely moorland village of Longnor. Sunnyside was built approximately two hundred years ago. The building still contains many original features including oak beams, open fireplaces and stone floors. Sunnyside B&B has two beautiful en-suite bedrooms – The Belfield and Vernon Rooms . Both rooms have been recently refurbished to a high standard, yet they retain many of their original heritage features. The Belfield room has an en-suite shower with a large rainfall shower head, a hand-held shower and body jets. The Vernon room has a beautiful cast iron roll top Rocca bath. There is a wood burning stove too which on request can be lit for guests. There is nothing more enjoyable than lying in a hot bath with a fine drink listening to the crackle of the wood burning stove. There are traditional centrally heated towel rails in the en-suite rooms and the complimentary toiletries are organic and ethically sourced. Hair dryers are available and there is free wifi. You will find fresh flowers in your room to welcome you. Organic and speciality tea and filter coffee are available, alongside complimentary chocolates and scrumptious biscuits. Please note that there are no televisions in the bedrooms or guest lounge, although we do have a TV licence and so if you have a digital device, you can access programmes through our wifi.
Jane and I look forward to meeting you and will do our utmost to ensure you have a wonderful stay. Jane and I love to share information about our local area and are available to respond to any questions you have. We can advise on fell running, cycling, climbing and walking and have much knowledge and expertise about these pursuits in our local area. We can also provide you with information on interesting historic places to visit and super places to eat.
The village of Longnor lies within the Peak District National Park. The village has two pubs, a post office, local stores, a coffee shop and a fish and chip shop. There are many beautiful walks and leisure trails that you can access straight from Sunnsyide B & B. There are both easy and more challenging walks, including Chrome and Parkhouse Hill, The Roaches and the High Peak and Monsal Trails. The opportunities for fell running are amazing. The roads are quiet and extremely scenic for road cycling and The Cat and Fiddle, Gun Hill, Winnats and Snake Pass are all within a days ride for the enthusiast. There are many greenways and bridle ways nearby if you like off-road and mountain biking. If you are a climber, then you will be spoilt for choice with many crags and bouldering areas within easy driving distance.
