Excellent location with fabulous views. The cottage was homely with everything you needed to make your stay welcoming with lots of kitchen equipment and a lovely welcome pack. Comfy, clean beds and towels, with little touches including fresh flowers, books, toys (for children) and games/cards. Details of local walks, both long and short from cottage very useful. Great local pub by the river a 10 minute walk, albeit downhill, but worth the walk. Would definitely recommend.

We stayed here following a very negative experience at another property and could not have been more blessed with our experience at Abbots Abode. We were met at the gate by Vicky who helped us to settle in and give additional advice on the area. All of the rooms were beautiful and comfortable and the communal rooms were perfect to relax in. We travelled as two families with a child, infant and dog and were able to spend time together without feeling like we were under each others feet. Tideswell was nearby and a really nice village and within a short drive there was a wide range of activities. We hope to return to Abbots Abode again next year for our winter break.
