Me and my partner stayed at the cottage for a couple of nights and were really impressed, lovely little cottage with modern appliances throughout and an outstaying view which can be seen from the hot tub. The host was really friendly and gave us a quick tour to show the local shops which was a nice touch.

Great location for walking and cycling, and the accommodation was amazing
Jennifer
Lovely little home next to the beautiful Waldley House, the grounds were beautiful and the views are gorgeous. Loved the hot tub and how spacious the home felt.
Jacqueline
This property has quite a steep set of stairs to the entrance which is not mentioned in the site. The property was very nice and comfortable. I felt that it was a little over priced. I think price was due to the views rather than the accommodation. The little flat was lovely and clean its just I thought a little overprice for me .
Marissa
This place was absolutely beautiful! The rural landscape and the standard of accommodation was second to none. I would highly recommend this to anyone. The hot tub was just the icing on the cake! Thankyou to the lovely owner who was attentive during our stay.

Beautiful place, beautiful location. 360degrees view. Everything high end. Owners really nice and leave you to enjoy your stay. Would not know they were around. Having toilet facilities with the hot tub really makes a difference. Could not fault anything. Great place for a romantic break.

A fabulous property in beautiful, tranquil surroundings. Perfect for a relaxing getaway. The amenities in the cottage are top notch. It was so special to be able to sit in the hot tub watching the sunset. The local pub is a short walk away and thank you to Gordon for the recommendation of Dovestone Farm Shop and cafe where we had a great brunch.

Superb, superb, superb. Facilities were awesome and the owners are so welcoming, kind, and hospitable. Our car broke down during the stay and the owners were so flexible it really took the stress away. My personal thanks to them both, you have a lovely setting and are such kind people. Thank you.
Ed
We stayed at this cottage for a short break (or 'mini-moon') after getting married, and we must say the cottage was just perfect for what we wanted. Rural, peaceful location (with amazing views) that is a short distance from the Peak District. A modern, clean and well equipped cottage. We loved the Jacuzzi and Smart TV to help chill out after a bus y few weeks prior. Our hosts Gordon and Marion were very welcoming and friendly, and went out of their way to make our stay very memorable. Thank you!
Philip
High quality accommodation with a great outlook over the owners immaculate grounds and surrounding countryside. Very well equipped and very comfortable. Great location and within easy driving distance of the Peak District hot spots. Owners were very welcoming and also knowledgeable of the local area.
Rachel
We had the most amazing and relaxing time in beautiful surroundings. The owners were so welcoming and hospitable. The accommodation was out of this world with panoramic views of the surroundings and we will definitely return for another relaxing break very soon. The estate is an absolute credit to the owners John and Rachel (Cheshire)
