We've just had an excellent week's holiday at Railway Cottage. A lovely comfortable cottage with everything you could need. It has direct access to the High Peak trail so we've walked and cycled from the door nearly every day! Gill and Phil are perfect hosts - cottage was spotlessly clean and the lovely welcome pack really appreciated - thank you. We hope to come again!
