Guests that stayed at this property said
The majority of guests found the cottage to be spotlessly clean, with only one mention of a mattress issue which does not directly relate to cleanliness. The high level of cleanliness is consistently noted across reviews.
The cottage's location is frequently praised for its tranquility, proximity to walking paths, and local amenities. It serves as a perfect base for exploring the Peak District. The only minor drawback mentioned is the difficulty in finding the turn-off in the dark.
While many guests found the cottage cosy and the beds comfortable, there were several mentions of the single beds being hard and squeaky, suggesting that some of the sleeping arrangements may need attention.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, with a well-equipped kitchen and secure garden. The open fire is a highlight for many. However, some guests mentioned issues with heating on arrival and hot water, which suggests room for improvement in maintenance.
There are no specific mentions of gifts or special touches that would fall under the category of thoughtfulness. Therefore, it is not possible to provide a score for this category.

The cottage was perfect for dog owners due to the garden. Perhaps being able to access the property earlier would have made our stay better. At 4pm in the Winter months, the daylight is going and thereâs nothing to do apart from stay indoors.
