Lovely five days in Forest View. Central to getting about the Derbyshire Dales. The cottage was well equipped, lovely and cosy and extremely peaceful. A lovely welcome pack on arrival with lots of flowers. Close to some lovely walks and the weather was kind. Good value for money and look forward to returning in the future. When using sat nav, stick to the main roads as it does love to try to take you up lots of B roads.
