Beekeepers cottage was fabulous. Everything you need for a lovely stay in Derbyshire. The house is cosy, well equipped, spotlessly clean with lots of thoughtful touches like fresh flowers and a welcome basket. If that wasn't enough the hosts are warm and friendly, nothing is too much trouble, Liz brought us some fresh eggs which were delicious.
