The views are spectacular and the cottage was very very clean and very very comfortable. An unexpected bonus was the dog paddock, as with livestock on the moorland, it allowed us to give our boy a good free run most days. I have put Cheesewring Farm on my return to list....there was nothing not to like...Thank you to our hosts for sharing their property with us...

The cottage was very clean and comfortable. There was a cream tea, milk and eggs on arrival and we received this again at the beginning of the second week. The owners were lovely and friendly. The property has amazing views and access to the Moor for some great walks. Will definitely stay here again.

The owners are very friendly and helpful, and the eggs, scones with jam and cream, plus the Doggie welcome pack was a lovely touch. It is very quiet and tranquil and we enjoyed a very relaxing week at Mumâs cottage. Would highly recommend it.
