Guests that stayed at this property said
Guests consistently describe the cottage as clean and well-maintained, with several reviews highlighting its spotless condition. The attention to cleanliness contributes positively to the overall experience.
The cottage's location is frequently praised for its beauty and convenience, situated in a peaceful village with easy access to local attractions and walks. The proximity to towns like Buxton and Bakewell, along with the dog-friendly pub, is appreciated by guests.
The cottage is generally regarded as cosy and comfortable, with a warm welcome and thoughtful touches. However, some guests mention a creaky bed and a small sofa, which slightly detract from the comfort score.
Facilities are well-regarded, with modern appliances and a jacuzzi bath being highlights. However, the lack of a stand-up shower, Wi-Fi, and mobile phone signal are noted drawbacks. The presence of a secure paddock for dogs is a plus.
Guests mention a welcome pack and the owners' readiness to resolve issues, indicating thoughtfulness. While such gestures are appreciated, it is politely noted that these are not guaranteed for every stay.

Would recommend. We now understand the comments about the settee. The weather was quite wet at times so we probably spent more time in than we would if the weather had been better. Settee not the comfiest especially the left-hand side of it.
