Very nice cottage. Excellent location. Easy walk into Buxton and good road access to places all around. Generally a clean & tidy cottage, however a bit more care could have been given to the dusting. There were some very thick, dark cobwebs around the light fittings, corners of the room and above the kitchen units.Cooking equipment is limited (2 pans), so be aware of this if you are thinking of staying for a period of time and wanting to be self contained.Overall though a great property and would definitely use again if we were to visit this part of Derbyshire.
