May 2005 | The cottage was in a great location and was lovely, cosy and clean. Having the bike hire next door was brilliant and cycling along the Manifold cycle track was a lovely day. I would definitely go back to the cottage again and will recommend it to friends.

Mrs Elmer, Peterborough,
Mar 2005 | The Rileys who own the cottage were most helpful and very friendly. The bike ride along the Manifold way was fantastic. There are very good walks around the area, including gentle strolls for the unfit. The landlord of the Old Crown was a very pleasant chap and the food was very good. Chatsworth House is a must although could prove expensive if you have a family.
