The cottage is generally found to be comfortable, with high-quality bedding and a cosy atmosphere. However, a few guests noted that the lounge seating may not accommodate larger groups comfortably, which slightly impacts the score.
Facilities are well-regarded, particularly the well-equipped kitchen. The garden and outdoor seating are also appreciated. Some minor issues are raised, such as the need for additional pillows and cutlery, but overall, the facilities meet guests' needs.

About this property
In the well-appointed village of Tideswell, set in the limestone uplands in the Peak District is this wonderful detached property, Brookside Cottage, a large dwelling not far from the centre of the village. Perfectly suited to a group of friends passionate about walking, or a family holiday to get the kids outside and in the fresh air, you are sure to be delighted by Brookside Cottage. Enter the property, hang your coats up on the coat rack and kick your walking boots off before heading into the welcoming sitting room where you can fall into one of the armchairs or spread out on the sofa in front of the gas flame fire. Turn on the television for an afternoon of films, or move into the dining room and set up a fun board game if it's a rainy day for a bit of healthy family competition! Later on serve up your delicious home-cooked meal on the round French style dining table, with both the sitting and dining room benefiting from French doors leading out to the patio outside, letting beautiful natural light in. Prepare for a day of being outdoors by making packed lunches in the well-equipped kitchen, using it to rustle up some treats to enjoy when you need it most. After the long days exploring and making the most of your Peak District adventure, you'll need a good night's rest, so head up the stairs to find four delightful bedrooms, any of which you'd be happy to rest in. There is a king-size room which affords you with an en-suite shower room, two doubles and a single, served by a family bathroom where you can soak in the P-shaped bath to relax those achy legs. The outside area is picturesque, with a brook running to the side of the property, which you can hear tranquilly trickling along in the quiet of the morning. An enclosed patio area holds garden furniture . The village of Tideswell is a great place to stop in; it has shops, pubs and local businesses, and hosts Tideswell Food Festival every year in May, with an array of demonstrations, stalls, and entertainment. Regular concerts are put on in the lovely church from local groups like the Male Voice Choir. Towards the southern end of the village is Tideswell Dale which is a nature reserve park featuring a fun sculpture trail. Of course you are positioned close to other popular towns of the Peaks, such as Buxton, Bakewell and the abundance of the rolling countryside. Brookside Cottage will be the perfect host for yourself and your family, centrally located in the Peaks.
Tideswell is a village in the Peak District in Derbyshire, home to some fine old buildings and a remarkable church. Known as the 'Catherdral of the Peak', the church of St John the Baptist was made entirely in the 14th century, so make sure to visit during your trip.

Can I suggest a gate at the rear garden patio to make it an enclosed area for dogs and children.
