“Cottage was very clean and cosy.”

Ideal for a romantic mini break. You have to use Google maps on your mobile to locate the property. Driveway to the property is a little rough. Views are amazing.

“The cottage was very nice, clean, and comfortable.”

A nice quiet rural location in beautiful countryside, but only 3 miles from the Market town of Leek. The only slight downside was the internet was a bit intermittent, as was the TV reception. Otherwise a highly recommended cottage.
Mr Mckinnon July 2019

“We had a lovely stay at Willow Cottage.”

It was very peaceful and just what we wanted.The owner was helpful and friendly. It was a very nice touch to leave us some homemade cakes and tell us we could get more cakes and fresh milk any time we wanted from the farmhouse kitchen. A cosy pretty little place, in a lovely part of the Derbyshire countryside, ideal for the short break that we had.
Mr Davies April 2019

“The property was exactly as expected.”

The owner was very accommodating and made us feel welcome and at home. We would certainly recommend this property to anyone looking to stay around the Peak District.
Miss Warren March 2019

“Our break away was great, the cottage was everything we expected and Lorna was fab!”

She was friendly and even checked in on us when she hadn’t seen us for a while. The milk and cake were a nice added touch and we’ve recommended to everyone we know and are already looking at booking our next break away.
Mr Bradford March 2019

“Had a fab weekend!”

Lorna went out of her way to make us feel welcome and the cottage was perfect! Beautiful surroundings and had some lovely walks followed by a soak in the hot tub!
Miss Roberts March 2019

“Lovely quiet getaway, Lorna was on hand for anything we needed and there was milk and cake ready on our arrival!”

Beautiful annex, very clean and spacious and 15 minute walk to a lovely tea room. Would definitely recommend x

“While the overall break was lovely and what I'd expected, there are a few concerns: - When arriving at the cottage, we'd called ahead an hour before arriving as the instruction on the booking told us, only to be shown into the cottage with "this is it".”

No information on facilities etc. We had to contact Lorna later that evening to find out how to use the heating. - The hot tub was noted on the booking, however it failed to mention it's a shared hot tub, so you have to pre book time slots, which wasn't a huge issue really, but we also weren't shown how to use it, only where it was located. - One of the wetter days of our trip, we'd decided to stay in and watch films. Lorna knocked on our door with a guest she was hoping to show around the cottage. Considering we were only there 1 more night, I felt this was very inappropriate with us being there and all of our belongings out on show. She did apologise saying she thought we were out. To me, whether we are in or not, someone else shouldn't be brought in to the cottage with a guests personal items in there. She did apologise again the next morning when we left, but again reiterated that she thought we'd be out. That has left me feeling slightly uneasy that people could have been in while my personal items were there. Despite the above, the location was perfect and it was very much a relaxing break.
Mrs Harris August 2018

“Owner did not want my 10 year old son to use hot tub even though stated on website could be used by children 10 years and above.”

She stated this was because other families had not been using hot tub safely. She said had changed website and children were not allowed to use hot tub. However, when we checked it still stated children from age of ten could use. Only two towels for shower provided and these were threadbare. Unable to read dial on oven as worn away.

“Warm, cosy, romantic cottage in an idyllic setting - perfect after a stressful week”

We visited the Hen Cottage Annexe this weekend (late Nov 15) and stayed for two nights. The setting is wonderful (the track leading up is bumpy but not a problem at all) and the cottage is set in the hills. It's ideally situated for exploring in the Peak District, it feels out in the middle of nowhere (which is exactly what we wanted) but equally Leek is only 4 miles away and Buxton only around 10. The cottage itself is clean, comfortable, spacious, with nice roof windows and it's a perfect romantic getaway whether you want a base from which to explore, or somewhere to just relax (we did a bit of both). The heating is also really effective (not an exciting point(!) but if you travel in the winter the cottage retains heat really well and warms up to be really toasty very quickly if you've been out for the day. Lorna, the owner, is really friendly and cakes and milk were available on arrival which was a really nice touch. I would recommend this to anyone, it's a really nice place.

“Hidden treasure!”

We took a short break of three nights in this delightful property. As we approached along the bumpy track we wondered what we would find at the end! A hidden treasure in the form of Hen Cloud annexe awaited us, just to the side of the owners' B & B and nestling close to the Roaches rocks and heather -covered hills. Lorna and Nick the owners welcomed us and had even left cake in the fridge for hungry travellers! The property was spotlessly clean and well laid out with everything we needed. Lots to do and see around here, whether it be walking, climbing or simply relaxing with visiting relatives as we did. Loved it and would definitely think about a return visit.
