A very nice place to stay, the owners were very welcoming. The location was great for travelling to all the various visitor sights in Derbyshire so we were pleased with everything we saw and did. Lp

From the moment we got out the car when Tracey and Robert (hopefully we got your names right!) met us we couldn’t have felt more at home. Upon walking inside the welcome pack was amazing, and really set us up. We have never stayed in a more equipped kitchen. If you need it, they have got it. The hosts really need to update the list of things they supply as I didn’t need to bring my Own hair dryer, or the air fryer!! The rest of the property was so clean too. Brilliant water pressure for the shower too. I honestly can’t fault a single thing. If I could move in permanently I would! There are a number of shorter walks in the area where we had the pleasure of meeting a field of adolescent cows(they are bonkers), and walked through many fields of cows and sheep! We have already planned to return in 2028 and explore more of the Peaks. Thanks for a wonderful stay, and the most relaxing week.
