Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviewers frequently mention the property's cleanliness, describing it as 'spotless' and 'very clean'. This suggests a high standard of cleanliness that guests are very satisfied with.
The location is generally praised for its beautiful scenery, proximity to walking trails, and central position for exploring the Peaks. However, some guests note the potential difficulty of accessing places without a car and the presence of a busy road, slightly impacting the score.
Comfort is a recurring theme, with guests finding the cottage warm and welcoming. The beds and sofas are mentioned as comfortable, although one review about a hard mattress suggests comfort levels might vary depending on personal preference.
Facilities are well-regarded, with mentions of a well-equipped kitchen, secure garden, and additional amenities like WiFi and washing machines. Some minor feedback on kitchen equipment and late-night farm noise slightly affects the score.
Guests appreciate the thoughtful touches such as welcome gifts and the provision of cleaning products and toiletries. While these gestures are highly valued, it is important to note that such extras are subject to change and may not be guaranteed for every stay.

Close to great Derbyshire Dales walking. All ground floor, accessible for visitors with mobility issues. Wheelchair users will need to use a car to get anywhere due to location on the A515. Lots of great villages and towns within reach, dog friendly area.
