Interaction with guests:Â During your stay you can contact me at any time either by email, phone or text. Sue, the lady who manages the apartment has lived in Sheffield all her life and will be able to help you with any questions you may have. She also has looked after the apartment for many years and I would suggest she is probably the best person to answer any immediate questions.
Having had a famous heritage in the production of high quality steels and cutlery Sheffield has reinvented itself as a modern and vibrant city with an economy based around the University, light industry, and tourism.
The Millhouse's apartment is located in the South West of the city between Broomhill and the famous Botanical Gardens. A walk around the area will allow the visitor to admire the impressive residences which were once home to the steel and cutlery barons who made this part of the city their home. The Botanical Gardens are literally 5 minutes walk. Over the past 10 years they have been extensively restored to their original glory and are now impeccably maintained by an enthusiastic team of volunteers and professionals. The Glasshouse contains specimens from all the principal global regions. Staying local the flat is located adjacent to the lovely Endcliffe Park and from here one can walk through a string of interlinked parks out into the Derbyshire countryside. (30 mins) Dining out presents no problem as one only has to walk down to Hunters Bar (5 mins) and you have a selection of excellent bars, cafes, and restaurants. Public transport to the centre of Sheffield is very good with a bus route on the adjacent road and several more routes within 5 minutes walk.
