  I spent five wonderful days and nights at Abbey View Farm cottage last week.

  I just needed time for myself with my greyhound, Blue, which is what I found, be it taking walks around the area, or relaxing in the garden where all you could hear was the water feature and the birds. We took several walks up to the Abbey which is only half a mile away. If you want a relaxing place to stay, or a base for visiting near or far, you will certainly not be disappointed. Marion and John were very accommodating, making sure I had everything I needed, and if not I only had to ask. Marion has provided plenty of information for eating out and places of interest to visit. She also provided lovely boxes of treats for humans and dogs alike, which was much appreciated by both of us. There are lots of lovely touches to make your stay extra comfortable, again for humans and dogs. I left feeling a little sad that I was leaving, but I also left feeling totally relaxed in a most wonderfully peaceful place. A promise to myself? I will return Marion.

  This is by far the best property we’ve stayed in for our dog.

  We were so impressed at how much space there was. This property is all enclosed so can let the dog off the lead. We had a wonderful time. Loved sitting in the garden letting the dog and our little girl play. The views are amazing so relaxing and tranquil. The finer details with this property is just on another level. There was milk in the fridge, a little hamper of food such as eggs and cereals. There was a high chair for our daughter and also a carry cot so we didn’t need to bring ours. Everything we needed was right there, even board games which came in handy when it started to rain. The property is situated close to the nearest town which you could walk to but we drove. We visited the monkey forest as well which was about 15 minutes away, worth a visit. I honestly can’t fault it just wish we had booked for longer. We will definitely look at booking again in the near future. Loved everything about our holiday so thank you very much.

  Abbey View Farm Cottage was a wonderful choice, in an attractive area of countryside, with friendly and helpful owners (Marion & John).

  It had everything necessary for us to enjoy our stay in a peaceful setting, as well as a welcome pack of cake & wine (in addition to the more normal milk, bread etc !). The cottage is fully furnished with a comfortable bed and with plenty of hot water, and was beautifully clean when we arrived. The only snag (if, like us, you are elderly / stiff / arthritic), you may find the sofa rather low and difficult to get up from. However, there was also two armchairs so we didn’t use the sofa! There is plenty of room for parking, and the private garden was a delightful place to sit and and have a coffee / drink / snooze (depending on your wishes) We found lots of places to visit nearby (including a local butcher selling the “best pies in Staffordshire” - we devided the claim was valid. We would recommend Abbey Farm View Cottage wholeheartedly - if’s a pity we can only give it 5 Stars and not 5+. Jim

  Abbey view farm cottage was a lovely break away.

  The cottage is well equipped,clean and very cosy. The bed is very compfy so get a good nights sleep and it's in a peaceful location. The owner Marion was lovely, very welcoming and helpfull. There is leaflets in the coattage provided of where to go in the peak district, so that is very helpfull if your new and have never been to the peak district. Its also not far from the main shops and takeaways around 10 mins in the car. The welcome pack provided was a lovely treat it included milk bread biscuits etc and a bottle of wine wich was so lovely. The log fire was nice to light at night and everything that was needed for it was provided. Overall a lovely stay and the cottage has everything you need whilst you are there. I would definitely stay again and recommend Abbey view cottage if your looking for a needed break away in the peak district.

  We had a super week at Curlew Barn.

  The property is very comfortable and well equipped. Friendly and helpful owners there to welcome us. They provided very useful information on the local area. We loved the hot tub - beautiful view from the garden. Lots to do nearby. We did lots of walking at the nearby manifold way, near Barlestone, and at the Tittesworth reservoir. We also visited some great places within an easy drive, namely Shugborough Hall, Kedleston hall, Trentham Gardens and Chatsworth. Handy supermarket a few miles away in Leek and M&S food just a few minutes away in Ashbourne. The Bangladeshi restaurant within walking distance receives great, well-deserved, reviews - we are there twice! Will definitely return. This is a very under-rated area with beautiful walking and plenty to entertain visitors.
