An exceptionally nice, clean cottage. Very isolated but with stunning views and perfect if you want peace and quiet. The stairs need fixing as 2 of the treads are weak and springy and a constant dripping tap which is easier to fix. A larger mirror in the bedroom, possibly on the wall would have helped.

Confirmed Guest
We had a lovely stay here. The cottages views were gorgeous and we had lovely weather most of the 3 nights stay so got to enjoy these even if inside as was very cold and windy. There is a seating area outside though which at another time would be lovely. There was everything we needed to cook meals with but we also got a takeaway chinese from Buxton which was about a 15 minute drive. Our only negative is that all the mattresses are rather hard but we would return. We would however return.
