We loved this cottage. It was in a perfect spot for walking with our dog and had everything we needed for a lovely comfortable stay. We couldn’t fault it.The little enclosed garden was absolutely great and our greyhound thoroughly appreciated it 😁We will definitely book another visit

We stayed on probably the coldest snowy & icy weekend but the quaint cottage was so cosy inside! Two big comfortable sofas in the lounge, a well equipped kitchen, a garden & in the heart of the village. Perfect for our Springer Spaniel & a lovely welcoming & dog friendly pub just down the road. The only downside was the small double bed. It was comfy but too small both width & lengthwise for us!But overall we loved our stay at The Creamery.

Lovely cozy little cottage ideally located for touring the Peak District. Enclosed garden ideal when you have dogs with you. Hosts very friendly, and a couple of nice pub restaurants near by.
