  Lovely week stay at Midway.

  Kitchen fully equipped with everything you could possibly need, fridge has a 3 freezer drawers. Beds and seating in lounge very comfy. Both settees in the lounge are electric recliners with handy built in charging points. Underfloor heating nice and cosy once we worked out how to use it , great log burner. Only thing we missed was that there are no wardrobes in any bedrooms but plenty of hooks on the back of downstairs doors to hang clothes. The ample draw storage does make up for the space if you don't mind folding clothes for storage . Had a slight issue that was nobody's fault that was responded to immediately by a call to Julie and sorted in 10 minutes, a clear sign of a good, caring, and responsive host. A car is a must to get out and about. A welcome pack with local information etc would be helpful as would instructions for the different heating controls. Thank you for a lovely stay.

  Barn Croft Cottage - just perfect!

  ! Super cosy cottage with fabulous garden - perfect for two people. Lovely peaceful garden - so nice to sit out listening to birds singing, sheep in the field and hens pecking nearby. Carolyn's fruit cake was marvellous too, along with many extras - groceries, eggs, butter, milk, bread and wine, along with fresh flowers. There is a hairdryer, iron & ironing board, DVD player, CD player, hot water bottles, washing-up liquid, dishwasher tablets, kitchen tea-towels, & kitchen roll. Elton Church bells ring on a Thursday evening and were delightful. Local buses to Bakewell & Matlock excellent - bus stop just by Elton church at top of lane. All in all a lovely cottage in beautiful, peaceful surroundings - would highly recommend.

  It was a lovely place to be based over the Christmas period, set right in the Peak District with many walks either from the cottage or within easy distance.

  The house was immaculately clean and we felt very welcomed by Carolyn with lovely local butter, bread and milk, a welcome bottle of wine and a tasty homemade lemon drizzle cake. A couple of days later the most gorgeous homemade Christmas cake appeared too, one of the best we have ever tasted! It was good to arrive and see Christmas had arrived at the cottage too! There was everything we could need in the kitchen, my husband is a retired chef/restaurateur and was pleased, (which is not always the case in a holiday cottage!) The enclosed garden attached to the cottage is an added boon for our young dog. We would definitely be more than happy to go again and would thoroughly recommend.

  The cottage was in a perfect location for us to explore the Peak District.

  The owner contacted us prior to our trip to discuss our stay. We were greeted with fresh milk, bread, butter, homemade cake (possibly the best lemon drizzle cake we have ever had!) and a bottle of wine. She had also provided some information about where to eat (including up to date covid opening times etc) and things to do locally. We definitely felt very welcome and that the owner goes above and beyond to welcome her guests and make sure they have everything they need. The cottage was clean and perfect for our needs. There was parking just outside the door and a secure garden for our dog. We would definitelt consider booking again of we were to visit the same area!

  It’s a lovely cottage.

  Ideal for one or two people. The hosts are very welcoming and Carolyn had made me some beautiful scones even making them dairy free for me. There was also some fresh eggs from her hens and a welcome bottle of wine. She also made me a lovely fruitcake which was one of the best I’ve ever had! Being used to some cottages where you need to take everything with you it was lovely to find cleaning items and lovely scented handwash in the bathroom. The cottage made it easy for me to reach places like Chatsworth House, Hardwick Hall and Bakewell etc. I would definitely recommend it as a lovely place to stay.
