We had a four night stay at Chapel Row and had a great stay. Everything was clean and looked very fresh. This is a spacious and very good quality place to stay. A thoughtful welcome package of food and drink was much appreciated. Thoroughly recommended.

Messages with details instructions were sent before our stay and these were very helpful. The welcome basket was also lovely. The property was clean & tidy with a great layout. A wonderful house to stop in and would use again.

I've stayed in a few cottages around the Peak District, I don't drive, so require a bus route and a supermarket near by, previous cottages have been on the main road, so a little too noisy, but this cottage was the perfect location ( just off the main road), the bus stop and co-op were a 2 minute walk away. The cottage itself, absolutely lovely, soRead more spacious, one of the best I've stayed in.. I'll be back next year! Thanks Hide

This is a lovely property, in a great location. We could go out for the day, and then leave the car and walk to a nearby pub or restaurant for our evening meal. We recommend Casa Carlo, it was tucked away, but great for a coffee, and we had a lovely meal there one evening. Hope and Anchor worth a visit. Lots to see and do nearby.
