Very well appointed cottage.
Very well appointed cottage. Easy to find. Christine our host was very friendly and always on hand to help out if needed. The cottage was clean, warm and well equipped - an added benefit would have been an oven glove.Christine was very friendly and it was a lovely surprise to have welcome goodies waiting for us. We hope to return.

Cottage is really cosy and warm. Just what you need after hiking on the peaks!!Christine, the owner, was very welcoming and helpful. Made the best lemon drizzle cake !! Bottle of wine and pint of milk all ready for us. The location is ideal as you are right on the doorstep of the peak district. We will be booking again for sure.
