At Wetton Mill in the Manifold Valley amidst some staggering scenery, a cycle trail, closed to traffic for most of its route, follows the line of a narrow-gauge railway, (which ran from the turn of the century until the 1930s) and a river for some seven miles - even passing through the old railway tunnel.

A surprise weekend for my wife's 50th birthday to spend with our children and grandchildren. The property had absolutely everything you would ever need it was perfect in every way. Beds comfortable, it was warm, hot tub (remember logs for the fire) I would definitely book this property again.

We had a great family time at Broadmedows, its a very spacious property, there was 11 of us... and there was plenty of room... its an old farmhouse, nearly 200yrs in parts, so it is very quaint! It has everything you need for a great holiday, we went in Jan, We didn't try the hot tub, but that was out of choice! if you want to use the tub or the log fire... you need to provide your own logs! There's plenty of board games provided, to suit all ages. And of course there's a games room.. pool, darts and table tennis. Its not a room but a garage.. so its cold, but put some jumpers on and have fun, we did!!

Had a great weekend the views are amazing. The hot tub gets super hot but takes a long time to get there - make sure you have plenty of wood (there's a Morrisons 20 mins away). It's a nice 25 min walk to the village pub.
