About this property

We arrived and the cottage was decorated for us with lights and decorations making it instantly feel festive and magical. The welcome pack we were greeted with was the best we have ever had. The cottage itself had literally everything you could ever need and more. Warm, quiet and in the perfect location. The pub was just a couple of minutes walk away, was friendly and the food was delicious.

The welcome pack was lovely and the fire every evening was great and so easy to use and we found the bed very comfortable. We used the bus a couple of times to go to Buxton and Ashbourne very easy to do with the stop outside the property! Plenty of walking and pubs nearby although the ground is a bit wet at this time of year. We would definitely stay again but more likely May/June when we could enjoy the garden. There was only 2 of us but the property would have been great for us as a family when our children were younger!

Lovely log burner with plenty of logs. The owner was lovely and left washing up liquid and cloths and there was some tea and coffee and some lovely treats. It was very cold when we stayed with temperatures just above freezing. There was strict instructions not to mess with the heating settings. The heating didnât come on until 6.30 pm. As it got dark at 4 pm we were coming to the cottage in freezing temperatures. The beds were not comfortable. Although the furnishings met our needs it didnât give us the feel of walking into somewhere luxury or nice. For the price it was disappointing.
