A beautifully and tastefully up/dated and restored property. Full of character yet it offers every comfort. The rooms are spacious and there are plenty of en- suite and bathroom facilities for our family group. An excellent house for our 3 generation 80th Birthday Celebration. Our grandchildren loved exploring the space and making up stories, they Read moreloved the secret garden up the steps. The Butchers was very good. The closure of Lea Shaw was good as only cycle and foot access ment the road was a quite, safe walking route, however, Google Maps really needs to learn which end of the closure Holloway House is! There are many excellent walks starting from the house and very good tourist experiences within easy reach. Hide

Absolutely gorgeous period house. Homely feel, kitchen well stocked. Brilliant to have a real fire, logs were provided. The rooms were well designed, the conservatory was spacious and good heating throughout. Will definitely be back. Good location, good butchers next door, fish and chips in Cromford and nice pub 30 mins walk.

Lovely warm, comfortable house with good views. Well equipped. Ideal for our multi generational family of 10. Plenty of room for small children to run about. The pool table is a great bonus and was enjoyed by us all.

Gorgeous cottage in a beautiful location! The house was equipped with everything we could need and the owners were so responsive whenever we had questions.

A beautiful large house with character and history in a great location to get around and about in the Peak District. Fabulous views.
