  We loved the cottage, especially the sun room on the front! It was very well equipped with everything you could possibly need. The location was great, within easy reach of all the places we wanted to visit. The local amenities were very adequate. George and Lynn were brilliant hosts and very friendly and helpfull.
  We were quite lucky with the weather and organised our days to suit, i.e. on a rainy day we travelled into Derby to do some shopping, coolish days we saved for walking and sunny days for exploring town,s and villages we wanted to see.
  There was nothing about the holiday to dislike, except for departure day. Was a fantastic break in a fantastic cottage with great views to boot.

  A lovely cottage, lovely owners in a beautiful setting

  Left on 12/02/2011 for a stay in October 2011
  
  

  The cottage was beautiful. The owners were very helpful and friendly leaving milk, biscuits and even a bottle of wine. We walked in and felt immediately at home. We made really good use of the conservatory on the front each day when we came back from our travels. The location was great for visiting the Peak District area. The local ammenities were all we needed.
