An ideal location to get away from the hussle and bussle of daily life. The views are incredible and if like me you are an artist don't forget to pack those paints etc.Teh accom itself is spacious although for me the seating in the lounge afre was a wee bit too low but somehow managed to get up despite wonly knee.Location wise do not be put off by the green in the centre of the lane. it's all part of a wonderful experience. The owners are on site if you need any advice as we did seeking a good place to eat. The Lamb Public House is only 15 minutes awat on the Glossopr road but it is incredible. We had Sunday lunch although best to9 book and followed up woth Dinner on the eve of our departure. Lamb Henry.....incredible.All in all a wonderful retreat and would have no hesitation in saying...'Go for it'............

Beautiful location with stunning views and access to many footpaths. Sofa a little uncomfortable and interesting crockery. Access lane/footpath is narrow but we did not meet another vehicle during our week. Owners very helpful and accommodating. Spring lambs frolicking in adjacent field.
