Clean and warm accomodation, ideal location for exploring the Peaks, close to Bakewell & Matlock. Communication could have been better and states there is an EV charger, which is in fact on the owners property next door so not as convenient as first thought when booking. EV charging costs also seemingly high. Other than that, would recommend.

We enjoyed our short break at Oakleigh. The cottage was very comfortable, modern, clean and cosy, it had everything you needed. We were visiting Chatsworth House so the location was ideal. Very pleased and would definately return.

Alloggiare in questo cottage è stato come esere a casa. Ci siamo trovate benisimo. È stata la location perfetta per spostarsi nella zona e visitare il Peak District e per rilasarsi nel pomeriggio e sera. La vista sulla campagna dal salotto è super. Sono presenti tutti gli elettrodomestici utili, anche una lavasciuga. Julia è stata molto disponibile nel rispondere quando abbiamo avuto bisogno. Mi sono commosa quando abbiamo lasciato l'alloggio, spero di tornare di nuovo in futuro. Grazie!
