“My daughter and I spent a fabulous five days at the Collecting Yard.”
Unfortunately we couldn't manage the full week as we'd booked, due to other commitments. I messaged Wendy about this and she was very helpful and accommodating, and was happy to welcome us on a different time and day. The log burner was going on arrival making us feel extra cosy. The cottage was well equipped with everything we needed to enjoy our stay. I was particularly happy with the entrance porch space, perfect for leaving towels and facilitating paw wiping. I saw Wendy every day, she was very friendly and helpful, but never intrusive.
The location is wonderful, so quiet. We particularly enjoyed driving through picturesque villages on our way to walks in the Manifold Valley, Dovedale and Ilam. Good National Trust tearoom at Ilam Park.
