“Lovely cottage, very well equipped.”

Warm and cosy.

Warm and cosy.
Mrs Ironside May 2019

“Loved the terrace and the views across the valley!”

Great base for exploring the Peak District.
Dr Mcclaughry February 2019

“Lovely cottage, very cosy, no views from cottage itself but fabulous area and great walking from the front door.”
Mrs Seabridge December 2018

“Superb cottage in a delightful, tranquil position.”

Very comfortable, immaculately clean and well equipped. We had a totally relaxing and idyllic week. Pet friendly too, which is a bonus. I wouldn't hesitate to stay at Curlew Cottage again.
Mrs Diss October 2018

“We had a wonderful holiday and the cottage was really lovely inside.”

However, one comment I would make is that in the Sykes description ' all of the apartments also come with incredible views of the Peak District' this is just not the case at all with Curlew cottage. Curlew is on the ground floor, which we knew, but there is no view at all from either of the three windows. Two windows (lounge and bedroom) look out onto an old breeze block barn blocking any view, and one window (from the kitchen) looks out directly onto a two storey brick wall of part of the owner's house, blocking any view so that was very disappointing. This is not a criticism of the owners at all, but the description by Sykes for Curlew does need to be changed - or re-worded as it is mis-leading. I don't need this feedback published, but I would appreciate an email back to me at Corinne.diss@btinternet.com Kind regards.
Mrs Jesson August 2018

“We were more than happy with Curlew at Upper Whittle Farm.”

Very comfortable, in a beautiful location. Just one little comment would be, a washing machine instead of a dish washer would have been more useful, otherwise perfect!
Mrs Middleton August 2018

“Wonderful break in a fantastic cottage.”

Very comfortable with excellent facilities. Breathtaking scenery. Would definitely return
Mrs Lancaster July 2018

“Great location for walking, really lovely little cottage in a pretty setting.”
Mr Rand June 2018

“The position and environment were fantastic.”

From a personal view point I think (in a walking environment) a washing machine would have been a more pressing need than a dish washer. We also went out and bought a fan to cool the place, but that was purely due to the fact that it was the hottest fortnight in most people's living memory. But these are very minor issues. We had a wonderful time in a beautiful setting.
Mrs Page June 2018

“A recently converted cottage with modern decor and excellent facilities.”
Mr Connolly May 2018

“The owners,Justin and Julie, were very pleasant and welcoming.”

The accommodation was very comfortable, and I really enjoyed my stay! I hope to go back to stay there again in the not too distant future.
Mr Newton February 2018

“Our accommodation owners were great, friendly and helpful.”

The accommodation complex they have created is very cosy and comfortable. The location beautiful and we had a layer of snow which set a pretty scene. Loads of walks and bike routes. The local pubs served excellent food and the local village shops have a fair supply of previsions. We may well return to continue walks we did not get time to do. And try some of the bike trails.
Mrs Robyn October 2017

“Lots of care taken to fit the cottage out - spotlights, well equipped kitchen, biscuits and milk on arrival, lovely!”
Ms Jacobs September 2017

“Excellent cottage in a superb location.”

Plenty to do around and about
