The owner lives on site and is a great host. Foolow is a lovely village with lots of walks from the door or just a short distance away. The village pub serves very good food; it also has a small supply of bread and cakes from Bakewell Bakery available to purchase. There's no shop in Foolow but there's a well stocked Spar a couple of miles away in Calver.

The cottage was cosy and very well equipped and there was a lovely seating area near a pretty fish pond. The cottage is very well situated for touring the dales. We would love to return one day.
