We have stayed at various places around the peaks over the past year and I have to say this is the best one we have stayed at. Everything you could ask for. Large garden with great views, comfy sitting room and a great kitchen with double cooker. A very quiet and tranquil place after many very long hikes.

Well equipped & spotlessly clean. The garden was great too, very safe for our dog, and since there were only four cottage's, very private & peaceful. Would highly recommend, and hope to return. Within easy reach of lovely locations, Lyme park was beautiful. And lots of good pub/restaurants. The Mill at Rowarth, and the Hare & Hounds at Simmondsley both good. Great short break, thank you Wayne.
