Guests that stayed at this property said
Most guests found the cottage to be very clean, with only a few mentioning issues such as a log burner needing cleaning and floor cleanliness. The positive remarks on cleanliness from several reviews suggest a high standard is typically maintained.
The location is frequently praised for its beauty and proximity to walking paths and the Peak District. However, some guests mentioned noise from a nearby road and lack of a private garden, slightly impacting the score.
Guests generally found the beds comfortable and the cottage cosy, especially with the wood burner. However, some noted the cottage's size and creaking floorboards as detractors from overall comfort.
While the cottage is described as well-equipped, there are mixed reviews about the maintenance of facilities, such as the small TV and the lack of a garden. Due to the lack of consistent information across reviews, a definitive score cannot be provided.
Many guests appreciated the thoughtful touches like a welcome pack with wine and snacks. It's important to note that such gifts, while appreciated, are not guaranteed and may vary.

The historic market town of Chesterfield acts as the gateway to the Peak District, and has much to offer visitors. The town is famous for its 14th Century church with "Crooked Spire", twisting curiously from its true centre, while the frequent bustling market days are ideal for exploring the many different specialist shops and stalls which line the old Market Hall and charming Shambles beyond. The town also boasts Queens Park, with its boating lake, walks and summer bandstand, as well as a museum and theatre. An interesting base for a break exploring the Peak District.

We chose this area to access Bakewell, Chatsworth House and Mam Tor easily. It's a shame there is no direct yard or garden access (we did know this before booking), so I wouldn't visit in the summer as I like to have outside space but it was clean and functional for our Easter weekend as we were out all day and came back to sleep! We had a lovely welcome from the owners, and a starter pack including milk and wine!

Would highly recommend for couples as it was cosy stay in the middle of nowhere. It was very clean and tidy, plenty of on site facilities for cooking etc. Only gripe was the internet/wifi but as I say it was for work purposes so needed a good internet connection. Overall very satisfied with my stay
