We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cottage. Its location was perfectwithin walking distance of Buxton and close to some lovely walks. The welcome pack you sent in advance was especially helpful, as it allowed us to plan ahead and book local restaurants and activities. Thank you for making our visit so enjoyable.

Had a great 3 night stay. The cottage is close enough to Buxton (20 to 30 minute walk away) to enjoy the local amenities but far enough away to feel private. The cottage is bigger than it looks in the pictures and decorated to a high standard. The owner provided everything you would need including umbrella hats which were useful during the storm. The location was easy to find with convenient parking. Thank you for a ‘Pheasant’ stay.

Lovely stay at the cottage! Easy to find and it was close enough to Buxton to walk in. Well placed for walks round the Peak District - Luds Church was a highlight. Garden was peaceful which was great to enjoy the hot tub!
