Beautiful cottage - beautiful location - we can't wait to return. Two minor issues - one with cleaning under the sofa cushions which the owner said he would keep an eye on. Shower door downstairs is very hard to open and close. Apart from that - top notch everything you'd expect from a five star Sykes rental

The facilities are 10 out of 10. A wonderful welcome with relaxing music playing, hot tub ready to use. Would highly recommend this property in a peaceful location for some much needed rest and relaxation.

The property is exactly as imagined - picture perfect cottage situated in farmland housing sheep in one field and cows in another. The accommodation is warm and cosy and sympathetically decorated throughout keeping lots of original features. We made full use of the hot tub and log fire both evening's which were well maintained. During our stay we made use of the many nearby footpaths and rambled through the Derbyshire hills stumbling across a Michelin guide pub in Hayfield on our way. We loved our stay and would definitely like to return at some point in the future. Our only recommendation is that it would be nice if the vendors could provide more essentials such as food condiments - ketchup, brown sauce, mayonnaise, jams, butter etc (we were provided hotel size packet butter which wasn't the best!) We completely understand the cottage is self catering however it's little things like this that sometimes gets forgotten about. Also - the bathtub was beautiful and yet no bath soap to go with it! It's the little extras that go a long way.
