Great stay
We loved our stay in Wirksworth. Such a lovely area for walking and cycling which we were after.
The cottage was lovely. Very comfy beds, great sofa and fab log burner. Kitchen has everything you need.
The shower is definitely small as the listing says. However i dont thjnk i realised how small - we managed (just) but this is the only negative in an other wise lovely stay.
The village is also great, again with everything you need in terms of variety of places to eat and drink.
