Was a beautiful little place, fantastic view from living room. Only a short drive to places that we wanted to visit, all in all a fabulous place to stay. 😁

Lovely base for our minibreak on the edge of the Peak District, well equipped with pretty much everything you could reasonably want, nice little hamper of bread, milk and cake from the local farm shop on arrival too, and a stash of household essentials too so we didn't need to rush to a shop immediately on arrival. Property has one double and one single bed (and is advertised as 3 bed) but it does have a sofa bed so is suitable for 2 or 3 adults and 1 or 2 children.
