Lovely clean well equipped cottage. Our only problem was that the enclosed garden was a very small yard. Our dog will not toilet on hard surfaces, (which would have been very unhygienic and unpleasant.) So we had to take her out first thing in the morning and last thing at night.

Just what the doctor ordered. Quiet, relaxing in a beautiful village setting with a cracking pub and excellent menu for everyone. Smashing walks over the Derbyshire Dales especially if you happen upon The Tagg Lane Dairy selling the best ice cream ever. Always a treat to stay in Lindum cottage!
