We loved this little cottage - it was comfortable, clean and based within a working dairy farm with cows, sheep and birds around.

A wonderful place to stay and relax just enjoying country living. Only one thing to note is that there is no internet and very little phone connection - but good for relaxing and recharging. Ideal location for walking and great place to explore the Peak district from.

Lovely cottage, we enjoyed ourselves, great for walking.

People should be aware that it is near a working farm and early morning milking, this did not bother us.

The accommodation is situated in a wonderful rural location with far reaching views albeit, adjacent to a working dairy.

A delightful, detached and quiet holiday let at the end of a dry stone walled lane. Very well equipped for two adults and, a huge plus, is the two separate bathrooms. A lovely little , compact holiday let in a beautiful area with outstanding countryside, villages ,towns and places of interest.
