Great cottage, central location and very quiet even though the main road wasnt far away. Had everything you need and provided a good base to visit Buxton, Bakewell, Ashbourne and Ilam and the Tissington Trail.

Beautiful little cottage off a country road. Great ammenties, local pub and in walking distance. Nearest supermarkets are about 6 miles away, but as long as youve got a car, its great. Cottage has everything you need, including a TV , dvd player & board games. Pretty village with a self service dairy down the road in yeardsley.

This little barn conversion was great for us. We stayed during renovations of our own property nearby and even though we were relatively local Widad (our host) ensured we had everything we needed and more. She recommended lovely places to eat and checked on us to ensure we were settled. Fantastic choice for the local area, lots of lovely walks and Read morescenery and activities. Hide

A convenient, comfortable, cozy cottage. Probably not suitable for anyone with mobility problems due to quite steep stairs. Lovely area with lots of dog walks. Friendly locals and church congregation.

The Colleys welcomed us into their lovely place for a week. We had everything that we needed for the duration of our stay and they were very helpful when we needed. We were house hunting and Mrs Colley came out of her way to give us much needed advice. The place was spotless and very comfortable. We would definitely stay there again if we are in thRead moree area. Hide
