The views were spectacular would definitely recommend to stop here. Only negative was the hot tub was set at 37 degrees which was too low in the winter months,so we didn't really use it.

Everything was spotless, cozy, and well-equipped for a relaxing getaway. The hot tub was a fantastic touch, perfect for unwinding in the beautiful surroundings. If we could suggest one small improvement, a mop or mat near the hot tub would be helpful. But overall, our stay was perfect, and we canât wait to return. Highly recommend!

Stunning local scenery when the 3 Peaks finally emerged from the clouds on the last day! Relaxing in the hot tub in wind and rain was challenging but fun. Constructive comments for shower....non slip mat needed, and caddy for accessories would be helpful. We are mother and daughter who prefer to sleep separately, so used both bedrooms. Double room very well appointed but twin room not really comfortable for even 1 adult, great for 2 children. A second hanging rail to match the other would improve space usage. Heating system was extremely efficient and welcome in late Dec/New Year 2024/5. Living and kitchen facilities well equipped and comfortable.
