I would like to look at hotels in or very near to Saddleworth in Yorkshire but when I put that into google it just comes up with hotels that are about 7 miles away and I would like one closer than that if possible. :-) |

I was born and raised in Oldham, which isn't that far away, and Saddleworth is more of a village. |

I you want a hotel actually on the Moor, Google 'Hotels on Saddleworth Moor'. (the ON or IN is important) |

Uppermill is where I want to be close to so it would be good if it is a short taxi ride away. I haven't been there before and I will be taking my Aunt and Uncle who haven't been there either. |

Not sure about taxis re Uppermill. I am not in Saddleworth but do live in the Oldham area. I do have a friend who lives in the area and would have info re taxis etc but unfortunately they are out of the country on holiday until the week after next. If that is soon enough, I can get some further info for you then. |

You've probably already booked somewhere to stay by now, but there is also the White Hart at Lydgate which is two miles from the centre of Uppermill |

Delph and Uppermill are only a couple of miles apart, I'll have a look when I've got a moment if the place still stands, or have a look on an old map. Have you booked somewhere to stay? How will you be travelling? Just concerned that if you are travelling by train to Greenfield your Aunt and Uncle may struggle with the steps up the footbridge at Greenfield station. |

P.S. If you'd prefer to be near Delph rather than stay in Uppermill there is the Old Bell Inn near the centre of Delph |
