The spiral staircase may cause problems for those less able - small suitcases/bags recommended. Although it has no on site parking we found street parking each day. Lovely area for walking and two welcoming pubs in the village.

Very good for walking in the countryside and also within walking distance of Arkwright's Mill, Cromford, Wirksworth, Matlock Bath for those willing to walk up and down the hills. The village is pretty and has two good pubs. I was able to park my car within 50 m of the cottage which was very convenient.

The garden wasn't as secure as we thought as the pictures didn't show the low wall on one side so I'm glad we took our long lead for Niko. Being a husky he would have chased anything that moved.. Having said that we would definitely book again as the Village is pretty much central to everywhere we walked
