Had a lovely relaxing few days away with our 2 dogs and our old parrot, the small village of peak dale was lovely and about a 5/10 minute drive into Buxton. There are loads of places to visit and some amazing walks. The beds were comfy, sofa not so good for my old back and house is in need of some TLC but it’s animal friendly and the power shower is amazing! For what we paid I’d certainly go back, maybe just to cut the grass 😉 good communication from the owner with lots of information provided.Never used the games room but it would’ve been good for kids to hang out, All in all a nice relaxing holiday just like we wanted 😀
