A character cottage on the edge of the peak district, in a good location for walking. either from the door or after a short drive to nearby locations.The Jervis Arms is diagonally opposite and serves great food, if you don't want to cook or use the car.Well equipped cottage, with a log burner and good central heating, for colder months.It's a bit dark inside, needs the heating when cold and ceilings are low so watch your head, but that's the nature of this type of property.
