What our customers say about their holidays

  The house itself was spotless and the kitchen was well equipped.

  Good quality bedlinen and towels. Welcome pack was much appreciated. Very good WiFi and smart tv. We stayed 4 out of 5 days mainly due to the fact that I did not find the sofas or any of the beds comfortable - especially the creaky metal one. Also the traffic was loud as most of it was quarry lorries. My partner was fine but my back wasn’t. Also there was no mention of proximity to a HUGE quarry which never seemed to stop producing dust, noise or lorry traffic. The parking was really tight and we ended up with a wheel arch scrape trying to position the car in the small space and the lane was blocked further up all week by a builders van which meant a perilous reverse out onto a busy road. Also the back view is of untended rear gardens and rubbish which we weren’t expecting and was a bit disappointing. On the plus side the neighbours were friendly and there was a pleasant,safe dog walk over the road. I am glad we came but now knowing what the area is like we won’t return as there is too much industry and it is very busy.

  Just wasn't what we were expecting.

  We appreciate that it's an old property but that's no excuse for poor cleanliness. The main "walkways / work areas" were clean but go beyond and it was dirty. Also a bad smell of damp downstairs with a number of damp stains to walls and ceilings. We used 2 tins of air freshener. Bulbs blown in every room. Hoover was full of pet hair and didn't pick up. Too many pots out, which were we to use as most were dirty/dusty. Upstairs taps need a service as they hardly turn on, also poor water pressure, maybe a pump required? Hardly get wet in the shower and gave up on filling the bath! Rubbish bin was full and bags thrown on the floor in the upper garden. This place needs a deep clean and some tlc, it could be so nice. On a positive, the beds were comfortable and clean and the property is well situated for exploring.

  Our stay was very enjoyable but there were a couple of things which would have made it even better.

  The outside spaces need tidying up and the shower on the top floor needs attention because it can't be adjusted as necessary. Our first impression of the kitchen was disappointing because there is some damage to the unit as you walk in, although this doesn't interfere with the practical use of the kitchen. During our stay we noticed that the gas bottles needed replacing so we phoned the owner, who was grateful that we had checked this, and the next day the gas bottles were replaced. The beds were very comfortable and the bath towels were lovely, but it would have been good to have had hand towels as well. We would add that for what we paid for our week, this house is very good value.

  We have just come back from a week in Longnor.

  The cottage is set on 3 floors with a large bathroom on the top floor, another bathroom on the middle floor and toilet on the ground level. There is a large dining kitchen with a very good large hob/oven and a washer and dryer in the utility. The road outside is very busy with traffic and parking outside the cottage is an issue as the majority of the time we couldn’t get a space. However you can park down the road but having a baby this proved very hard for us.. The outside garden is set on two levels with steep steps between the two levels. The Cheshire Cheese pub is now closed so the nearest one is the Packhorse about 0.8 mile away.

  This is a five star property.

  Perfect location for Peak District hiking, lovely village with great facilities including lovely village pub. The house is wonderfully comfortable and extremely well equipped. Lovely cosy lounge, with two sofas and a log burner, especially and stunning top floor bathroom. The owners have clearly thought of everything and have acted on previous guests’ feedback. My only suggestion is that it should be made clear on the website that dogs are not allowed upstairs as I would not have booked had I known that - if you have a dog that sleeps in your room then a holiday is not the time to try to break that as it’s very stressful.
