Ringtones is a gorgeous holiday home set on a farm up a single track road. Everything is of such good quality and is very comfortable. It was spotless too. It was very peaceful and away from everything. There is a pub within walking distance and some walks. The nearest village New Mills has everything you need. I would definitely recommend especially if you are looking for a very comfortable peaceful break. We would stay again if we go back to that side of the Peaks

The cottage was in a beautiful location and had everything we needed for our relaxing break. Once we had the shopping in, there was no need to use the car. Lovely walks from the doorstep, The Little Mill Inn was a great place for food and drink and the cottage was so comfortable it was a pleasure to just stay in and relax. Would love to go again and explore the area more, in different seasons. Would definitely recommend.
