Very basic cottage, and overpriced for what is offered. We found it really cold there during our stay as little heating was provided. We needed thermals, hats and gillets on inside to keep warm. Tepid water for washing and signs telling users to not switch the immersion on. Bedding was clean, nice views, lovely location but would not stop again

This is a lovely, cosy cottage in the middle of beautiful countryside, a short walk from the River Dove. It is very peaceful and quiet, set apart from the rest of the farm with only sheep as neighbours! The kitchen is very well equipped and there is a good wifi connection.

This cosy cottage is set in a rural location with a great view. The sunsets and wild life that you could see from the terrace were varied and kept us entertained. The local village at Hartington has everything you need to get you through your holiday. Walks from the cottage door were varied and beautiful.

This cottage was just perfect with everything we needed. Four of us stayed and there was plenty of room for us.

Amazing location , beautiful walks all around. Really quirky cottage. The nearby village is a little gem, with a lovely farm shop and a village store selling local produce. The local pub was great with a lovely beer garden. Don't forget to bring salt , condiments etc as non in the cottage. No BBQ which was a shame in the nice weather.
