I couldnât fault it really other than trying to park outside. It was a very crowded residential area with no dedicated parking.

It might be a bit cosy for 4, but as a base from which to explore the stunning surrounding area, it is perfect. We felt very welcomed to stay and found that we had everything we needed in the cottage. We didn't need to contact the owners but felt confident that if there was any issue, they would respond quickly or we could sort it ourselves as all information about the property was clear and easy to follow. I would book again and highly recommend Lees Cottage to anyone wanting a great Peaks experience

The cottage had everything we needed and we felt immediately 'at home' when we entered the front door. The view from the back bedroom window first thing in the morning when the curtains are pulled back is really amazing and one I wish I could have bottled! We had a really enjoyable break and hope it won't be too long before we are able to return.
