Guests that stayed at this property said
The property consistently receives high marks for cleanliness, with multiple reviews describing it as 'spotless', 'clean', and 'tidy'. This indicates a well-maintained environment that guests find pleasing.
The location is frequently praised for its beauty and tranquillity, with guests appreciating the peaceful setting and proximity to local attractions. The property is described as not too far from nearby towns, making it an ideal base for exploring the area.
Comfort is highlighted with mentions of comfortable beds, large sofas, and a cosy atmosphere. However, there are comments about noise issues between floors, which suggests that while the property is generally comfortable, there may be room for improvement in soundproofing.
Facilities are well-regarded, with guests mentioning the well-equipped kitchen, ample parking, and sufficient bathrooms. Some minor maintenance issues are noted, such as the need for additional tea towels and a cot mattress, but overall, the facilities meet the needs of large groups.
While guests mention a warm welcome and the provision of a welcome pack, there are no consistent references to gifts or additional thoughtful touches that would warrant a score in this category. Therefore, the score is set to null.

Very helpful owners nearby who are happy to drop off fresh eggs from their chickens. We found a nice, mostly off road, walk into Buxton and plenty of other amazing walks a short car drive away.

Spacious, extremely well equipped, and in a very good location. It was absolutely ideal for our party of nine. The next time we have a large amount of people to accommodate for a holiday, we will be back.
